Hi Shaon,
How can I change the default Email Lock option from “Mail Download Link” to “Download Instantly”?
Yes, you can do that (send me you page link to suggest css). But you can also use custom link/page templates that does not have download count.
Insert your packages in a page using Link Template. Use a link template with [download_link] template tag to show your package ( i.e. Call To Action 3 ). This tag serves direct download, without showing details page.
Or you can build your own link template by following this doc http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/templates/link-template/
Hello Shahriar,
unfortunately, the issue is still open.
After preparing the link template code from home, I see the same behavior from my office PC, even a website shouldn’t be concerned by this.
On the page “https://silicon.software/know-how/download/” the tab “download overview” shows the correct page template, clicking “view details”.
Using the tabs “recent downloads” and “search downloads”, the [page_url] tag works self-referring and shows the download page, but not the detail page.
Is there a setting for page_url?
I am using “default values” and updated all link to the current link and page templates.
I was also using [popup_link] with the same effect.
Thanks in advance fr your help,
Michael
P.S. Let me know, if I should reactivate the temp login.
Use following shortcode to show package lists like the screenshot you taken from demo,
[wpdm-archive button_style="default" link_template="link-template-default.php" order_by="post_title" order="asc" items_per_page="10" cat_view="sidebar"]
You can use TinyMCE button addon to insert shortcode. It is a tool utility tool for complex shortcode, so you don;t have to memorise those.
Thanks.

No, you can use any template if it has [download_url] or [download_link] template tag in it. These tags create the package download button. You can also create your own template from Downloads Templates page. Read more about templates here http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/templates/creating-a-new-template/
Earlier download box was showing as popover, but due to many javascript errors in your site coming from other plugins and ads, social lock is not working properly in popover, so why I user [download_link_extended] tag to embed it in page. Still checking twitter issue.

Hi,
Please edit your mail template from Downloads Subscriber Email Template Tab. Use available tags to put links, name etc in template.
Thanks.
1. Problem: I have WPDM v4.5.5. Unable to install latest update v.4.5.6 no matter how many times I tried.
2. Problem: When user downloads my software, he gets a download link email. I’m unable to customize this email even though I located where the email templates were in WPDM. The previous coder configured the first one but I cannot find it anywhere to customize it further.
3. Problem: To disallow robots to download my software, I activated the inbuilt reCAPTCHA through Google before a download can be initiated. When I click on “I’m not a robot”. it starts to load but hangs.

Hi,
Download count works on whole package download. If you download a file from a package, not the whole package, download count does not increase.
In your site, you are using a page Template (https://www.evernote.com/l/AUeJaD0ne2hPrI2nFCPTWozGbIzb3XXzogE) which does not have package download link, you were downloading single files, not the package. That’s the reason , count didn’t increase after many download.
I have used a different Page Template which has package download button (https://www.evernote.com/l/AUdAqjt9MNRMaqKfbp3hXfcHhyNkLHCFzwo) and downloading the package now increases count.
Thanks.
Hi,
1. Use required attribute is input field to make it a mandatory field and checked attribute to check it by default
2. Add this customized code in your theme’s functions.php file to avoid losing it after plugin update
3. It is not built in feature. But, You can use this hook to implement the feature http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/action-reference/wpdm_before_email_download_link/
Thanks.
Any response? I have seen other people raising this issue of download links not working right with the latest WP.
Hi again. Sorry for bothering you, but we managed to add custom data using the info in thislink of your documentation. We have now two problems:
1) how can we make these fields be mandatory and checked by default? Because the user only need to fill the email, the other fields can remain empty and the download is also possible.
2) we made the changes in the file wpdm-functions.php, but it wil be overwritten each time we update the plugin. What do you recommend to not having to fix it every time?
3) This came from above, but we also need to send and email to the admin with the email and custom data of the user which has download anything. How can we do it?
Thanks again.
Hi there,
I’ve set up the plugin and had a few teething issues (as a lot of people do from the looks of the forum!)
I’ve had to manually hack the class.PackageLocks.php file as using email lock, and when doing so the little pop-over’s title of simply “email” didn’t seem quite sufficient. Bit strange that there’s no simple way to change the fields or their labels on this through the plugins front end settings. Anyway, that’s fine, I’ve figured that out.
I’ve also changed the wording used on the success popover from “Download link also sent to your email!” to “Thank you, your download will begin soon” partly because the emails didn’t appear to be working (for my corporate email address at least, it turns out it does work for my personal address) but also because I don’t actually want emails sent to users – I only want the download to happen while they are on the site, there and then.
Please can you advise how I can turn off the email send function. We are simply using the email lock to understand who is requesting downloads of factsheets. We don’t want any automated emails going to them (especially when it seems tricky to edit the template of those emails to remove your own logo/advertising banner on the top!)
Thanks in advance
John

Hi, recently purchased the newest version in hopes to fix the issue where some of my customers can’t download files. Tried many things and came to conclusion that the problem is with https.
There are several issues here all starting with in the https.
1: I go to a PUBLIC download page on my android device as a VISITOR. The download page is secured (as is my whole site). If the download links are secured, i can’t download. If the download links ar not secured, I can download. So if the download links are just http and not https, then in this scenario everything is fine.
2: I go to a PRIVATE download page on my android device as a MEMBER. If the download links are secured, i can’t download and if the download links ar not secured, I can download (just like in the previous example). However, I can only download if the access settings for this package is set to “All Visitors”. Meaning that it is not protected from unauthorized downloads. If the access settings are set to “Subcribers”, then I get the “Access denied.txt” file. I guess because I am logged in the HTTPS version of the site not HTTP. So changing links to http is not really a viable option here.
3. And the last thing. Because the user is not logged in the http site, but in https site, PDF stamper is not doing it job properly either (can’t acces to the email that is supposed to be stamped).
So in simple words – How can we fix this issue, so HTTPS download links would work on all devices?
You did not answered to my this question
2. I am not getting download link on email after form fill up.
also I purchased mailchimp plugin. It is not sending email records to mailchimp list.

Hi,
The option marked in your screenshot manages individual file download in a package, which has multiple files attached to it. If it is disabled use can download the whole package but can’t download single files. Also this option is not related to category restriction.
Please send a package link that has multiple files and individual file download not allowed. I will check if the option is working or not.
Also send temporary wp-admin login info if you want me to check the admin area.
Thanks.
I have tested on Chrome and Edge. It woks ok with C but seems very temperamental with E. The Captcha does not show up on E and first time after clearing cache the direct link worked BUT then the second time it went back to downloading a TXT file and stil no Captcha query!
I’ve reeving email properly.
There are 3 way to show the download link with lock options: embedded ( [download_link_extended] ), popup ( [download_link_popup] ) and popover ( [download_link] ), all are explained here http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/templates/template-tags/#download_link .
You can change those texts from language file wpdmpro.po .
Let’s assume that our user has the role “Silver” and has allowed 3 downloads per day.
1. Log in with username and password
2. On the site there are 30 downloads, all visible to the Role “Silver”
3. The user with the role “Silver” opens 10 downloads in separate tabs.
4. On each tab will be the button “Download” Visible
5. Walk every tabs giving each link click “Downloads”
6. 10 tabs process the download, even if the user with the role “Silver” has allowed maximum 3 per day.
Then;
If we open a tab do more or refresh in the open and we find the legend “Download Limit Exceeded”
It also happens that
1. If accessed from four different browsers, opening 4 tabs 1 on each browser, the user Role “silver” can download the 4, although the limit was set at 3
2. In any browser that then a second tab is opened, the message “Download Limit Exceeded” is displayed.
Saludos!
but why I am still getting the link-expired.txt file for the direct download!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (CS3). I have cleaned browser cache. see screen shot
