Maybe an example will help.
I have a healthcare charity client who make patient information available to download in this area https://www.mesothelioma.uk.com/downloadable-resources/ with buttons linked to the PDFs.
Each of those packages has a post created for it, which I want to completely hide from the visitor or ideally not have created in the first place – e.g. https://www.mesothelioma.uk.com/downloads/best-supportive-care/ – i don’t want this post to be visible to any visitor.
Does that help?
Hi Tahasin, Thanks for the quick response.
A link to what I see in Elementor: https://www.loom.com/share/e51c02da3ebb4869860702e5351b7049?sid=d03a560a-1edb-4d43-a47c-7c9353b03f8a
I have Downloads checked in Elementor/Settings/General but this does not make them available in the Theme Builder Conditions. Is there a piece that I am missing?
Do I need to set up custom post types for WPDMPRO? I assumed this would be part of the system.
Hi,
Is it possible to have WPDM not create the download pages or somehow hide them? I only want visitors to download from linked buttons on certain pages and sometimes the WPDM pages automatically created appear in search results, which I don’t want. Ideally, they simply wouldn’t exist, but an alternative would be a way to hide them.
Thank you

WPDM – MailChimp: Version 1.5.7
Download Manager Pro: Version 6.5.1
Settings > MailChimp: You are successfully connected to the Mailchimp service!
MailChimp List Mapping > Email Lock > (MC list added)
Email Lock Data Mapping > Data Source (Form) > EMAIL / FNAME / LNAME
Package > Enable Email Lock (yes) > Ask for Visitor’s Name (yes) > Mail Download Link (yes)
Package Shortcode embedded in Post > Download popup form asks for > ‘Your Full Name’ ‘Email Address’
(Complete popup form, then) > Downloads > Subscribers > Email Lock > (shows email & name)
However, no Name/Email data is being pulling into Mailchimp. Multiple attempts. Nada.
Is there currently a know issue with WPDM – MailChimp: Version 1.5.7 ?
Note: it is odd that the MC data mapping has First Name & Last Name fields, but the Email Lock popup shows ‘Your Full Name’. Perhaps this is causing a mapping issue.
Hello kees,
For layout adjustments, you don’t need to pay, you can easily do it from Downloads > Templates > Link/Page Templates adjusting the HTML structure and CSS. And for the pdf stamper for cloud storage requirements, I have already forwarded your request to our team authority. Thanks for your appreciation.
Thank you again and regards
Hello kees,
Please check now. I have added the below code snippet to your theme functions.php file
add_filter("wpdm_single_file_download_link", function($download_link, $fileID, $package)
{
$download_link = "";
return $download_link;
}, 1, 3);
Thus only the View button is showing for the [file_list] template tag. please check and let me know
Thank you and regards
Hello kees,
Please check now. The Disable Bootstrap JS option was enabled from Downloads > Settings > User interface, so the popup for the PDF viewer was not working. And for direct download, I have enabled the Mask Download Link from Downloads > Settings > General > File Download. Now, I hope it will work according to your requirements.
https://sustainabilityreports.com/wpdm-package/wpdm-test/
And for the PDF stamper, the file needs to be on the same server to be stamped properly rather than a remote/cloud storage file. I hope you have understood. please check and let me know, if you have any queries.
Thank you and regards

Hi,
Really loving this plugin but I am struggling to properly set up my link template. I have installed the PDF viewer and basically I want the same functionality as I find here:
https://try.wpdownloadmanager.com/download/pdf-viewer/
If you scroll down you find two examples with behind it a VIEW button and DOWNLOAD button. I want the saame functionality of (1) VIEW: opening it in a pop-up and (2) DOWNLOAD a direct download with leaving the page (currently the downloads to not directly download but open in a new tab).
sample.pdf VIEW DOWNLOAD +
Terms & Conditions – WordPress Download Manager.pdf VIEW DOWNLOAD +
Hope you guys can help. Thanks a lot.

Hey, Nayeem, I followed the instructions (https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/bulk-import/):
–
I uploaded all files in the dir /upload/download-manager-files
I uploaded all preview images in another dir (2023/12/)
an I prepared a csv similar to your sample csv:

After that I went to the “Import & Export” section in wp backend and clicked on the button “select csv file”. I selected the csv file, then something worked and it apeared “100% complete”. I changed to the “All packages” section and: NOTHING!!!! What is the mistake?
Hello,
my name is Luca and I purchased the plugin add-on ‘WordPress PDF Stamper Plugin’. I sell digital books with WooCommerce on a WordPress website, so I need a plugin that stamps every PDF purchased by my customers with their name, surname and e-mail. When I create a product in WooCommerce I have to insert a weblink with the position of the file and I would like that when the customers buy that digital book, get it with their name, surname and email stamped on it.
Unfortunately, this doesn’t work, it seems that the WordPress PDF Stamper Plugin works only of the digital products are uploaded on Download Manager. I tried to use this system and it is not fine for me and is not useful because with WooCommerce, I have all the information and tools I need. So my question is: how can I use this add-on plugin just for stamp a PDF uploaded on my website in a folder chosen by me without other stuff?
I have an idea, but I am not a Computer Scientist: if I upload the file in a specific folder in download manager sub-folder, the WordPress PDF Stamper Plugin could work? I don’t want to create a product on Download Manager, just use a sub-folder because so MAYBE WordPress PDF Stamper Plugin works. What do you think? Do you have an other proposal?
It seems to me that these tools have many functions and I hope I can found a solution; otherwise I will have to ask for a refund because it is not for me if it doesn’t work.
Thank you so much for your help.
Hello Abdelraouf Mahmoud,
For changing the text No downloads found! to others, you can add a parameter in the shortcode like the below
not_found="Downloads available soon – for further information please contact us" and the shortcode will be
[wpdm_tag id="TAG1" tag_field="slug" not_found="Downloads available soon – for further information please contact us" desc="Custom Dscription" toolbar="0" order_by="field name" order="asc" template="link-template-default-nl" items_per_page="10" cols=1 colspad=1]
please check and let me know, if it works for you.
Thank you and regards
I filled out the sample csv-file, but nearly nothing was taken than after import. I’ve choosen a title different from file name, but the title after import is the file name. The value in discription was not taken

What is the problem?
Hi Nayeem, I would like to change the “No downloads found!” for a Tag Shortcode:
[wpdm_tag id="TAG1" tag_field="slug" desc="Custom Dscription" toolbar="0" order_by="field name" order="asc" template="link-template-default-nl" items_per_page="10" cols=1 colspad=1]
I would like to change that to something like: Downloads available soon – for further information please contact us.
Hi, yes – I’ve been working on the site. I’ll come off it now so you can take another look. The link still isn’t working for the form lock. It’s the same issue, just a DM animated logo.
The link I had working that you saw was an email lock download which I’ve now deleted.
On those lines, I’ve also purchased the campaign monitor add on but I can’t get the settings screen for this to appear. Again, just a DM animated logo. Can you please take a look at that too?
Thank you!

Hello, Brendan Parker
I hope you are doing well and sorry for the inconvenience.
Try this shortcode
[wpdm_all_packages login=1 thumb=1 items_per_page="20" categories="your_categories_here" jstable=1 order_by="field_name" order="ASC/DESC" cols="title,file_count,download_count|categories|publish_date|download_link" colheads="Title|Categories|Publish Date|Download::155px"]
Here is the visual representation of this short code.
Hope this will align with your requirements.
Regards
Hello, Mathew Hunter
I hope you are doing well and thank you for reaching out to us.
WPDM simply links the user to google drive so a user can,
– Explore Google Drive File
– Upload Files directly to Google drive from your site admin section
– Attached file with download manager package
– Delete Google drive file
If you update file in google drive, user always will get the updated files, no need to update in WPDM manually.
Unfortunately, what you are asking is not possible right now. You have to do it manually.
Regards
We sell digital media using WOO. We restrict access with WOO memberships.
When using short-code [wpdm_tree] we get a list of all packages in the given category, and when the link is clicked the access restriction will send them to either the download page or will tell them to purchase. It would be nice to restrict the list to purchased items, but that data is in WOO.
When using short-code[wpdm_all+packages] the button link immediately starts the download, without going to the download page and without being subjected to our purchase gateway.
I prefer the look of wpdm_all_packages, but need our authorization test.
Can I do anything to get this result?
I already customized the “default.html” file
In which path of the child directory should I paste it?
In the link you indicated, there is the example of the files from the path: /src/Packages/views/link-templates
in my case the original path structure is: src/__/views/email-templates
I am using the structure: /{active-theme}/download-manager/email-templates and it is not working
Could you tell me the correct path to paste the new default.html file?
I am trying to change the payment method for the Download Manager Plugin. When I follow that link it does not show me the current payment method on file and when I click change payment method it takes me to an error screen after I enter the card details.
