Do you have [download_link] template tag in your custom template? Access denied message will be shown only if you have this in your template.
No, it is not possible. There are some security/restriction issue related to this quick download link. masterkey in the download link is required for this.

Hi,
If I create a page and enter the short code [wpdf_frontend] I get to see the upload page and, if I click ‘Add New’, I get to a page that allows me to upload a file.
If however I code a php template file to be used for the page and use the code do_shortcode(‘[wpdm_frontend]‘) … the ‘Add New’ link returns a 404 error.
Closest link I found was here but it hasn’t solved things:
How to upload files to the Front End File Hosting
Thanks.
Hi,
Currently I have the Download Manager Pro set up. I have the login page working properly, however I do not want people to register themselves. I have set up a live form (from you guys) and have all the required fields I want a person to register. My issue is though, how do I set the link of the page where I have the live form as my registration link, than the form already provided.
So I have set up the correct page but it says registrations are disabled. I am assuming this is because I have set my wordpress to not allow people to register themselves. My question is, can we add a link or code to your registration page to go to the form we want.
Alternatively, if this is not allowed, how do we disable the register tab?
The link I want people to register at is http://www.policiesrus.com.au/client-registration/ and the client login is http://www.policiesrus.com.au/client-log-in/
Regards,
Phillip
Hi,
Sorry, its not clear why you want to change the link. Rather than, you assign the download files in one category and use short-codes to show all the versions of that specific file type.
I wish, I could help you.
p.s. it not possible to change the download link.
Thank you

If you set up like screenshot, all of your downloads will be visible in yoursite.com/downloads link.
Use custom template ( step 3 ) for [wpdm-all-packages] shortcode.
./download-manager/tpls/wpdm-all-downloads.php file used for the above shortcode. Remove link in marked line to use only category name.

No shortcode available for these purpose.
But, you can use MiniMax addon to show summary for all packages. Demo Link
Hi,
Sorry, It is not possible to use link button in [file_list]. Changing this key would require code customization. Your another option is creating separate package for each file Or use the package download button to track downloads.
Thanks.

Always edit email template from Downloads Subscribers Email template page. Otherwise you will lose your custom template after plugin update.
If mail was sent for default template, it should work for modified template version too. Email issue must be related to your server, if it is not sent. Also ,You should check you spam folder too, in case it sent to spam.
I couldn’t reach your link. It shows 404.
1. Use tinymce addon to insert shortcode. You will have option to choose Link Template when available in a shortcode.
2. You have to modify /download-manager/tpls/wpdm-all-downloads.php file for that. That template is used for all packages shortcode.
It won’t work in all package table, suggested code was for Link Template.
To open details page in new from All Packages table you have to edit /download-manager/tpls/wpdm-all-packages.php file. Find marked line in that file and add target="_blank" attribute in that link tag.

Note: Follow step 3 here to use your own template file.
Hi there,
I see your short codes, I’ve downloaded the extended short codes add-on, but I’m not sure how to make the page that calls the download links like the demo that you’ve provided. There’s no option to view the page in the back end of your demo, so I can’t see what you did to call them up that way. I can’t see any sort of walk through for how to set up pages like that, so if I’m missing it could you please link it to me?
If I used the code you used, yes, the packages are all shown in a table. What is the point of the link templates, then? Do I need to individually plug a shortcode in for each package? Is there a way to set up a page, much like a blog page since this is a custom post type I assume – that updates automatically with new package posts?
Thanks for your help.
Hi,
Looks like your plugin is not installed correctly and some files are missing. Please try downloading new copy of the plugin and install in your system.

Hi,
Can I set settings for specific categories to be invisible for all users but they can download the package via link url in the post?
Also, I am adding add to cart button to the post, not to the package. When users add it to the cart, in the cart they see the link back to the package. Can I redirect to the post from the cart, not to the package?
Thanks,
Alesia
Yes, it is possible. In you custom link template use following code,
<a target="_blank" href="[download_url]">[title]</a>
To open file instead of download, enable Open in Browser option from WPDM Settings Basic File Download Panel.
Hi Shahriar
Thank you for your prompt reply.
Ok sure, please see attached image. I’m trying to use Google Tag Manager to track downloads as well, so that i can use Google Events to generate a PDF report.
I am able to set a link label for a package so that the package can be identified as an event in Google Tag Manager. However with the individual file list (generated by the Attach Dir) I am unable to pull any data that can be used as an identifier. See the image, the Click Text is “Download” and the URL is encoded.
So if its a problem to change the URL structure to be human readable, is it possible to change the [file_list] template to use Link-Button, so the button is the “file title” instead of just “Download”?
Otherwise would there be another way to add an identifier to the file?
Thank you for your time
Audio Player loads on site footer on this Link Template you are using there. Use a custom Link Template with [file_list] template tag to place audio player inside Link Template.
Hi, suddenly the links for downloading some pdf are no longer working.
for example http://ibernex.es/download/ppt_gestion_de_activos/
The file is in the correct ftp , but when downloading it says file-not-found
Why?
I have similar problems with other links
And other issue:
When adding new file, becouse the previus was not working, now , instead of showing the name of the file, it shows the hole rute:
http://ibernex.es/download/requerimientos_minimos_de_la_electronica_de_red_so-2/
and see image
Why is that?
Thanks
