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:
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?
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
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.
Hi,
Please check the Access type of the file. Then Clear your browser cache. Try downloading again.

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.
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.
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?
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.

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?
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?
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?
Hi,
When I try to use any download link with template it freezes my site.
I have to remove all cookies for site to become useable again.
This also happens if I click preview on a template link in the admin section too.
If I leave it long enough, it does work but only after about 10-15 minutes.
Has anybody any ideas?
Thanks
We can’t seem to get the form lock plugin to work.
When locking with a Contact form 7 the download is not provided after the form is completed. Also, when the option to send the link is selected, no link is sent.
Wondering if we’re doing something wrong or if someone has some better instructions than we found on the plugin site that might help, please?
I downloaded form lock and have installed it but having problems with an issue so hopefully you can help me out. I went in and edited the link template with the code below:
The issue I am having is when I click on the [download_link] (in the first set of code) and it displays the preview of the form I created with contact 7. However a user hit submit button an email is sent to me as it should but the user doesn’t get their email with the download link.
I have setup under the package option I have gone under the lock options and have enabled form lock as well as the enabled the email download link. Trying to figure out how to fix the problem and have tweaked several options any idea.
