Use:
[wpdm_direct_link id='27956' label='<img src="http://www.mydomain.com/wp-content/plugins/download-manager/file-type-icons/arrow_down.png" alt="" />' ]
Yes, you need to use[download_url]tag in your link/page template. Example usage:
<input class="form-control" type="text" value="[donwload_url]" />
Or to make it like old version, use:
<a href="[download_url]" class="btn btn-success">[link_label]</a>
Ok, so the steps are:
- Create a new gallery in NextGen Gallery
- Create a new package with Download Manager where attach the gallery directory and enable single file download (which Link Template and Page Template I have to use? Some other options to set?)
- Create a new page/post where use WPDM shortcodes to view the package (which I have to use?)
Can I view the single files/photos in a page and choose which to download?
Thanks!
Hi,
Is there a way to make direct download links, so that front end users can copy them? In the old version this used to be possible, but now the link only copies as a # hash sign. I know you can install extended shortcodes add-on to enable direct links via the tree display, but is it possible for this to work again for individual links too?
Thanks!
Graham
I used a simple link showing a image for my downloads, but its not working in the new updates.
My old shortcodes was=
[ wpdm_hotlink id=”27956′ link_label=’ < img src=” / wp-content / plugins / download-manager / file-type-icons / arrow_down.png ” alt=”” />’ ]
but when I change is to=
[ wpdm_direct_link id=’27956′ link_label='< img src=” /wp-content /plugins / download-manager / file-type-icons / arrow_down.png” alt=”” />’ ]
its only listing the file name as “Download File_0001” and not showing the image mentioned in the filter link_lable.
Also tried without the Link_lable as=
[ wpdm_direct_link id=’27956′ http: // www. mydomain .com/ wp-content/ plugins/ download-manager/ file-type-icons/ arrow_down.png ]
So How can I convert it to be able to work on the new updated plugin
No such option to download all files from a category using a single download link. You need to attach all those files in a package and enable single file download, so that use can download any single file or full package.
Hello,
I need that my project to have a general download link that put together all files for all packages in a category so the user can not only download individual files but also all the files from a category at the same time.
I didn’t find a shortcode for this nor a good solution apart of creating a package with all the files.
Is there a better option?
Thanks in advance.
thank you Shaon.
2 more questions:
What login=1 means in this short code:
[wpdm_my_downloads login=1 template=”link-template-calltoaction3″ cols=”2″]
?
Is it possible the have the packages sorted by name?
Please check the usage here http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/download/advanced-access-control/
Please use link template id, not page template.

Is there any way to display a dropdown list of of downloads in a category. For example I have a list of data sheets for products. What I would like to do is display a dropdown list of products (which are download posts) in the category of “Acids and Alcohols” for example.
Is there some way to do this with the link template editor, or is there a plugin extension or anything to accomplish this?
Good evening, the plugin does not work for some time. Should send the email with the download link but do not get any email.
It is because amp removes all javascript. So, you need replace [download_link] with <a href="[download_url]">[link_label]</a>, but only public downloads will work there.
Nope. No template showing up.
Anyway – now I have tried to fix it for weeks – I am convinced it is not a problem with the template, it’s some error that is linked to the password query. It only happens after I have entered the password and downloaded 1 document. After that, any other buttons will only return stylling/CSS as shown on former screenshots.
You can use this add-on http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/download/lazy-download-add-on/ to redirect user to a thank you page when they click on download link and start download from the page.

Ok, thanks. That is good to know. I still have a couple remaining issues. The PDF is working, but not the Google-format document.
When I am entirely logged out of Google myself, and using a Chrome “incognito” window for extra assurance to replicate my end user’s experience as closely as possible, I get a 404 error on a Google-format document that is set to “Anyone with the link can view”.
I am still unclear on what to expect (will the user get a PDF of the Google doc? or will they be taken to the live document on Drive?) but clearly it should not be a 404 ๐
This is my test page: http://members.nrocnetwork.org/resources/download-package/test-gdrive/
The above applies to downloading independently, not as a zip package.
When downloading a zip package archive, I have a different problem: it unzips into a .cpgz file, which unzips into a .cpgz file, ad infinitum. I have reported this error before, and it is now affecting other multi-file packages on my site, not just the Google docs ones.
Hi Shaon,
Still doesn’t work. Before I go into any details, I absolutely need to get some questions answered about how this is intended to work. I might just be confusing things. I’ve asked these questions several times, and I have never received clear answers.
1) According to the screenshot at step 14 on http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/download/google-drive-explorer/ , I should be able to set the permission level to “anyone with the link can view” and it will work. But you said “enable public access” (in your last message in this thread). By Google Drive standards, that’s two different things, and I need to know which one is correct.
2) Is the add-on designed to handle, IN ANY WAY, documents created in native Google format? I’m not talking about PDFs or Word docs that are uploaded to Drive. I’m talking about documents that were created in native Google formats, such as Docs, Slides, Drawings, etc. For example, will it automatically convert a native Google format file into a PDF which can be downloaded? Or will it link the user directly to a Google format document? Or will it fail? (Clearly it’s possible to link to a native Google format file, but I’m trying to determine what the expected outcome is when a user tries to download it.)
I would like to remove the share button!

Thank You for your help!
Instead of [gallery_WxH] , please use [thumb_gallery_WxH]
I found [download_link_popup] is working fine, if you apply lock option, those will be displayed in a popup when you click on [download_link_popup]
[customer_download_link] will return premium item download url for customers who purchased it, please give me an url where you trying this.
This link for example:
http://protiumdesign.com/thousand-material-design-icons/
Short code is:
[wpdm_package id='1366']
I can see download icon and size of file but can’t download…
But this very very old files still working:
http://protiumdesign.com/matrix-dark-cubes/
And short code is this:
[wpdm_file id=17]
[gallery_WxH] not working
[download_link_popup] no popup
[customer_download_link] not working
in link template use tag [excerpt_X], replace X with 100 if you want to show 100 chars.ย Doc: http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/templates/
I paid for and installed the “Download Period” add-on for WPDM Pro. When I use the “Allow current user access to packages created within above date range” option for a user it does block the main download link for the package. But it DOES NOT block the individual file download link buttons within a package. The only way to fix this is to turn on “Disable Single File Download” in WPDM’s main settings. Can this be fixed?
Now fallback is required, you can use <a href="[download_url]">[link_label]</a> in link template and use it for all public downloads
