I use MailerLite to manage my subscribers and to do email automation. I’ve installed the Download Manager plugin into my site and set up my first file download. I added the short code in one of my pages and was able to successfully download the file as expected.
However, I’d like to embed this into an email. My plan is to have a popup on my site that asks users to subscribe, then immediately send them a follow up email with a link to download an ebook. I’m guessing that if I just embed the short code into an email, MailerLite won’t know what to do with it and it’ll just show up as a text string.
I don’t want to link the user to a page just to have them click a download button to get the asset, as that seems kind of clunky. Is there a more elegant way for me to do what I want to do?
1 ) You can email download link only for packages without locks.
2 ) By active-theme I meant the theme you are using now. So, for it should be /homa/download-manager/ Send FTP info if you need help with in this. I will create the template file for you.
– You can set custom download button text from Package Settings Meta Box Link Label option.
– To open the file in new tab use a custom template. Clone the current template you are using now and replace [download_link] template tag with <a target="_blank" href="[download_url]">[link_label]</a>.
Hi Ricardo, Could you please send me the page URL or let me know which page template you are using there?
WPDM Image button is not returning the required btn classes instead it shows “__wpdm_download_btn__” in class. This results in the download link being plain text link instead of a button.
here is a screenshot where you can see that the icons missing, and link to page.
also the colore scheme is different to preview. see in the second screenshot
thrid screenshot shows the preview with icon and grey colore – we want to use “Single Column, Image Top, Extended” with pdf icons, pdf preview and gry scale colorscheme…
I’m really happy with this plugin, however am facing a small issue with my site that is set up using WooCommerce Memberships. If a membership is assigned to see the download page, the link works fine. However for any membership levels not assigned to view the download page, the page just times out without redirecting to the generic ‘content restricted’ page. Just wondering if there’s a way around this?
1. I am now getting an error when trying to download the files via the link on the recipients email. if opening the email on a browser, then I get a ‘link-expired.txt’ file (Download link is expired. Please get new download link.)
2. please let me know the full address for the ‘active-theme/d-m folder as I can’t find it.
I’m using the pop link with the [file_list] shortcode included into my downloads. The problem is that when the package is too big, all the old downloads cannot be access due the scrolling bar doesn’t bar.
Hi,
I am currently setting up a download section on a website and would like to use the Archive Page with Sidebar (from the directory addon). This layout has a button ‘View Details’ which loads the file details. I would like to change this button to a Download button which downloads the file directly, is this possible?
Thanks.
https://www.lanshino.ru/docs/ – all files are correctly displayed with icons. embeded with shortcode [wpdm_all_packages items_per_page="50" jstable=1 order_by="date" order="DESC" cols="page_link,file_count,download_count|categories|update_date|download_link" colheads="Title|Categories|Update Date|Download"] This is so long because [wpdm_all_packages] after some of latest updates not shows clickable file names (with links to file details)
Sorry I don’t sent you login and pass because I think you will don’t understand Russian interface
You modified the link and page template files inside the plugin dir in your old version to create a custom look. But when you updated plugin you mods were not available anymore. That’s why the view changed after plugin update.
I’ve just installed the free version with intention to upgrade to premium however have come across an issue when viewing a download page. Although I can download via the link and shortcode, the download page itself returns the following fatal error. Any ideas?
Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Cannot access property started with ‘\0’ in /wp-content/plugins/download-manager/libs/class.Package.php:256 Stack trace: #0 /wp-content/plugins/download-manager/libs/class.Package.php(1006): WPDM\Package->Prepare(3714, NULL, ‘page’) #1 /wp-content/plugins/download-manager/wpdm-functions.php(968): WPDM\Package::fetchTemplate(‘page-template-c…’, Array, ‘page’) #2 /wp-content/plugins/download-manager/wpdm-functions.php(426): FetchTemplate(‘page-template-c…’, 3714, ‘page’) #3 /wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php(286): wpdm_downloadable(”) #4 /wp-includes/plugin.php(203): WP_Hook->apply_filters(”, Array) #5 /wp-content/plugins/timber-library/lib/Post.php(1038): apply_filters(‘the_content’, ”) #6 / in /wp-content/plugins/download-manager/libs/class.Package.php on line 256
Thank you for this information. “post_content” is showing nothing on my page unfortunately. And I do have something written in the main textbox in the backend.
I’m using the following:
[wpdm_all_packages order_by="update_date" order="DESC" colheads="Title|Description|Size|" cols="title|post_content|package_size|download_link"]
Any idea why this would show up blank? I just updated the plugin, but it didn’t solve the issue.
I solved the invalid redirect url error by authorizin the URL shown on the share link after I click on the inshare button.
Now I have a bigger problem.
When people click on shared link from Linkedin, the download link on the package page does not work. It does not show “share us on linkedin popup”.
I bought the DL Manager special pack more than a year ago. For several months I’ve been unable to update DL Manager. I get “update package not found” error. I’ve been super busy and unable to troubleshoot an installation problem because I’ve been launching several other websites. I haven’t had any issue updating the add-ons that I use.
Then, today, I had a red message on my plugins page that my support AND update period had expired. (I did not know I had a limited update period??). When I clicked on the link to renew to see what that’s going to cost, I get a page not found error on your site.
When I try to post about it, I get a message that I no longer have access to the pro forum, but no option to upgrade my support. So I’m here posting on the free forum.
I get that this isn’t the right spot really for me to ask these questions, but there’s not another place since there aren’t any general email support links and I can’t get access to the pro forum plus I keep running into “page not found” on the site.
1. Go to Downloads>Templates>Create Link Templates
2. Give a title of the template
3. Write [download_url] in the code section
4. Click save template.
5. Use the newly created template as Link Template of the file.
Please refer to the attached screenshot for more information.
Please explain how I install it? I have downloaded it via the link you provided (on my Apple MacBook). What downloaded is a file called wpdm-box-com.php containing some code. I don’t know what to do with this code in order to install the add-on.
Download Manager cache dir stores the resized thumbnail ( featured image ) previews. These resized previews are created when requested by a link or page template with a defined size.
When a resized preview exists in cache dir WPDM reuses it instead of creating it again which makes the site run faster. If you clear the cache dir all previews will be deleted and previews will be created based on requests.
Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any other question.
How do I setup download manger pro so it looks like and behaves like the free version in terms of frontend layout and function:
– layout frontend downloadLinks should look like default layout on free version
– direct file download on click without having to go to a separate download page to download the files
Hi. I am currently running version 4.7.2. I am finding that for one of my email addresses, the email link is being correctly sent but for another it is not being sent despite the form saying “Download link sent to your email” in both cases. Under ‘settings’ there are no blocked IPs or Blocked domains/emails.
In all cases, within WordPress when i select “Subscribers” it is showing that the link was sent to both emails.
Three things on this,
1. The typed ‘message’ does not show up on the recipients email.
2. The download link image emailed seems to be one I have no control over? Would like to change this.
3. The company logo does not show up on the recipient’s email. I have the logo’s file as part of my ‘media’ files and indicated the url of it on the ’email templates’ settings.
