My old custom plugin had a feature that you see many websites going to for downloads.
When clicking DOWNLOAD to download a file, a web page appears with browser specific instructions on what to do, such as “A yellow bar at the bottom of your screen will appear showing RUN or SAVE. Please xxxxxxxxxx”. Or “Your browser may automatically be downloading the file directly to the location set in your Firefox browser. Press CTRL-D to view the download manager”.
Then the file begins downloading.Is there an options in the pro plugin to do this?
Topic: Conditional Link in Template
New to the Pro plugin. I created a couple of custom text fields. One field is the URL to the download EULA and the other field is to the download version history. Not all packages will have a EULA and/or Version History link, so I leave those fields empty in the package.
I replicated the extended template and modified to include a link to that custom field. This works properly when I have packages with those fields filled.
My question is this. Is there a way to hide this when a field is blank?
I use the a href going to the custom field using the text VIEW as the word they would click to view. I would just like this empty when field is empty.In reply to: CSS Change Template

Hi,
You have to add the
[download_link]template tag in your custom link template. Because this tag is used to replace the download link with lock feature.Best regards.

– Category archive page URLs look like
https://www.site.com/downloads/package-category/Heredownloadsis category URL base. I meant before you can change this URL base if you want from Dashboard Settings Basic URL Structure Panel.-You can set login required or permission denied message ( when the user can’t access the package ) from settings. But your link/page template should have
[download_link]tag for that.https://www.evernote.com/l/AUdDu_AO60dA8K3RJab03IANkt0XK3o5e0UB/image.png
– You need Download Limit add-on to apply download limit based on user role
– Just update the package where you see the empty author. That should hide the author when it is empty.
In reply to: Open PDFs in Browser
You should use the custom link/page template ( the one that opens pdf in new tab ) with the package where you have only pdf file. In other packages use default download_link tag instead.
If you can’t figure it out, Please send me the package URL and wp-admin login info in private reply to check the dialog issue.
Hello, I’ve been trying to set up my downloads so that only subscribers can download them. I set up a login page and a register page, however my downloads won’t create a link to login/registration page, they just say “Please log in to download” (see attachment.) Can you please advice on how to redirect my users to the registration/login page?
Thank you.

– Added new custom field Author and edited your custom link template
dxfto show that author when available– added the background in custom template
– changed the button color
– access is not working because from your download manager category settings you are allowing all visitors to access the download

Hi,
The package permalink doesn’t require the query parameter, the query parameter is used only in download button/link. You can use that direct link anywhere for package parmalink.
Thanks

Hi:
How can we avoid members share the box.com links?.
For instance, I have a membership site and each member has access to its own page where the download links are placed. Only the members have access, but when they click a link, they are redirected to the box.com site in order to download the file.
All member could copy the shared link and distribute it to friends or other sites.
Can I avoid this process ?
I don´t want to applied a password or expired link because I want the members have access to their downloads whenever.
thanks for the answers………………….
How do I do this?
Say I have 200 downloads in the “oranges” category and before the download template, I want to add some text that only gets displayed if it’s the “oranges” category like “here are the oranges downloads”
I can’t create a new template, as I’d have to set it manually on 200 downloads.
So in my real world example I have 200 or so downloads, and I have a page of instructions on how to use the downloads of a certain type.
What I’d like is to be able to add that link above the downloads, or in the text description to show people where to get help with them.
Hope this makes sense, and hope it can be done in some way. I’ve looked at conditional tags, but I wouldn’t know where to begin using them with WPDM.

Hi, you can use custom template with direct download link shortcode with link tag and target _blank to open download in new tab.
Thanks
Right now If a user is not logged in they have no link at all where normally the download link is when someone is logged in. Is there a way to put a login link in place of nothing so someone knows to login?

In reply to: Link templates disappeared!
Hi,
If you added PHP file in
/active-theme/download-manager/link-templates/dir then switching theme will remove those templates until you copy those templates file under the active theme.If you used Downloads Templates Template Editor to create custom templates then those should be there even after theme switch.
How did you create those custom templates? Did you add PHP files or template editor?
Best regards.

Clone the page/link template you are using now and replace
[download_link]with<a target="_blank" href="[download_url]">[link_label]</a>Topic: Open PDFs in Browser
Hi, I am trying to open the links within the browser as a _blank target.
How do I need to change my shortcode?
I tried this: [download_link] As I wanted to have the download-link-test as the text shown on the page.
But this does not work…
