Archive Page has many other shortcodes too not only simple search. Demo link ( Last Menu items in demo ) https://demo.wpdownloadmanager.com/wpdmpro/archive-page-default/
You can try WPDM Search widget if you want to use core search feature.
1 ) Does MailChimp list get the leads after confirmation? Try using a new email.
2 ) Not possible yet. The download link is sent the first time.
1. I have set the MailChimp for double opt-in but it is not working.
2. When clicking subscribe the file downloads and an email is sent with the download link. Shouldn’t they be able to download until after they are subscribed after the double op-in?
yup, I understand that. But just be aware that the “fix” in that file, is not actually the fix. The fix is to use the correct URL. The file was supposed to contain a fix so that cross-domain access becomes a non-issue. This is how it should be, since multisite users often have sites with different domains, even on the admin side. As it stands right now, I have to create a special link to add downloads, and in some cases (such as editing an existing item) change the link after loading the page, because the standard link (in the admin sidebar menu) does not work. I hope you can provide a file that does fix this issue. Thanks.
We recently upgraded to WP Download Manager v4.6.7 from v4.6.3. The updated WPDM plugin has introduced an issue with the Advanced Custom Fields plugin (the separate plugin by Elliot Condon, not the WPDM add-on.)
We are outputting WPDM shortcodes within an ACF Flexible Content field. There are several blocks of content within the ACF field that contain WPDM shortcodes (which are outputting links to individual packages.) Using v4.6.3, there were no issues displaying multiple ACF flexible content blocks with WPDM shortcodes. However, with v4.7.6, the system now displays the first content block containing WPDM shortcodes and then stops outputting the subsequent blocks. If the WPDM shortcodes are removed from the first block, it will continue to process content blocks until it hits one with WPDM shortcodes. It will render that block then stop. The rest of the page renders fine and no errors are thrown.
We tried deactivating WPDM, deleting and reinstalling. No luck there. Reverting to v4.6.3 resolves the issue. Any recommendations?

In the free version: template=”link-template-button-popup.php” – the link would include the document name. However, in the paid pro version the link for template=”link-template-button” only shows the “Download” link without including the name.
All I want to display is a list of files where their actual names display as the link title. I was able to accomplish this in the free version with that button-popup template. How can I do this with the pro version?

it seems like you didn’t configure link and page template properly. Here is the doc: https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/templates/
However, if you want me to set those up, please give me temporary wp-admin login info in a private reply.
I pulled in a list of documents from a specific category. It’s lists the document links, but the links only go to a blank page instead of having a popup to download the file:

Bug:
In TinyMCE, while adding “Quick Pack” even if you choose the Link Template it won’t have any effect. It won’t use that Link Template you choose.
Solution:
Add your template code into this line in bold:
function wpdm_quick_pack() {
$id = \WPDM\Package::Create($_POST[‘file’]);
echo “[wpdm_package id='{$id}' template=\"596e2b93d8d8c\"]“;
die();
}
Bug2:
When single file download disabled, if you add a package using TinyMCE editor it won’t enter the file’s size.
Solution:
Add this line in bold to the function. Now it will correctly enter the size of file to the database.
function wpdm_quick_pack(){
$id = \WPDM\Package::Create($_POST[‘file’]);
$size = \WPDM\Package::Size($id, true);
echo “[wpdm_package id='{$id}' template=\"596e2b93d8d8c\"]“;
die();
}
Hey,
Our business supplies building certificates to different clients, what that means is that we usually receive pdf files over email and after we’re done working on them, we then put them on dropbox and send our clients a link to go and download. It is important that each client can only access their own file since these are legal files for the council.
We also don’t want people to have to log in before each download since some clients only work with us once or twice, what solutions does WordPress Download Manager have for this?
Thanks in advance
Hi Savvas,
There is no option yet to send email in this case. But it is a great idea. We will add an action there to hook any necessary task if this case happens.
For now, you can send the email by adding the following code in /download-manager/wpdm-start-download.php file.
$message = 'Attached files are missing in this package ' . get_permalink( $package[ 'ID' ] );
wp_mail( 'admin@site.com','File Not Found!', $message );
Add this code after the indicated line,

And obviously, change the email address in the code.
Regards,

Sorry Tom, I can’t help but I want to say that it is the same for me:
[wpdm_tree category=”name” download_link=1] does not work anymore since updating to the latest versions.
Has the tree category been discontinued or is it not supported in the free version anymore ? Please advise asap.
[download_link_extended] is a built-in template tag. It is already available in WPDM.
There is no option to clone a package. We have Default Value add-on which serves the similar purpose. You can set default values for new packages. When creating a new package all predefined values will be applied automatically.
Thank you,
Is [download_link_extended] a shortcode that you made just for me or it’s by default in the extension because I have an other website with the same Divi theme.
And I have an other question, can we clone a package or not ?
Your theme JS is conflicting the pop-up functionality. I have applied Extended Page Template there to embed the form. It is working now.
Extended Page Template uses [download_link_extended] instead of [download_link] tag.
Download and install the following custom add-on.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/le7v3ruo2n2hdc9/wpdm-template-tags.zip?dl=0
This add-on provides a custom template tag [downloaded_or_not]
You have to use this tag in your custom link/page template to show if the user has downloaded the product or not.
Hello!
When a user comment on an article where there is a download file, the comment is displayed on the download page and in the article.
At the moment of answer the comment in WordPress Dashboard it shows that it was done in the page of download and not in the article.
Example:
Article: https://www.portalmastips.com/desbloquear-archivo-adjunto-bloqueado-por-seguridad-en-outlook/
Download file: https://www.portalmastips.com/descargas/descarga-codetwo-attach-unblocker/
I do a test, I commented in the article and in the Dashboard it shows in the download page (image attached)
This feature can not be modified from link/page template.
You have to edit plugin code for that. File list is generated by /download-manager/libs/class.FileList.php file. Find $button_label variable there and add target=”_blank” in a tag.

Hi,
Try it on your page. The preview may not show the 100% matching result.
Also, install the Image Button add-on to convert the download link from text to button.
Let me know if you face any issue there.
Regards,
Black download button and cache issue fixed.
Update of premium package ( packages with price ) may be related to a plugin conflict. Can I disable other plugins to be sure? You can try that yourself too at your best time, so it doesn’t affect site visitor.
You have to use [download_link_extended] to show share button in social locked packages in an embedded way. As the theme CSS is interfering with the popup. Clone the current template ( single column flat ) you are using now and replace [download_link] with [download_link_extended]
Hi – I want to use the Panel download style but the preview icon or image + download button doesn’t display – instead it shows a text link… how can I get it to display like your demo example?
Any info appreciated
Hi,
That feature is not available yet. But in pro version, you can use custom link/page template where you can use custom template tag. So, it is possible to implement a custom template tag to show this download history.
If you purchase pro version let me know, I will send you the code to add the custom tag.
Thanks.
Hello,
I bought the pro version there is a week to use the Email Lock for control the data sheets downloads on my woocommerce website.
I made a download test with the Email Lock on your demo website and it worked perfectly but when I tried to do it on my own website it didn’t worked at all.
First there is no text area to fill with the name and the email and then when I click on the download link the page is just going up without doing anything else.
Do you have any solutions to fix it ?
Best regards,
Arnaud Hervieux
