Hi Shon
Is there any way where users can download the files without registering ?
When i checked the guest checkout, its taking me to a guest orders page but the download is locked
Is there another option which they can download the file after the payment confirmation ( A page which shows the payment details and a download button to get the files) ?
also a email template with the download link which goes out to the email id’s
i am looking for a same checkout process of easy digital downloads
If this can be done, i will be verymuch thankful, i can remove easy digital downloads and use only WPDM
Thanks

Thanks. I’ve updated the add-on and that’s solved that problem. But now another one is occurring. Whilst I can now download a resource from that resource page (http://familyimpact.org/resources/family-impact-resources/), if I try to download more than one file it simply downloads duplicates of the first file.
So if I click ‘download’ for Adventure Unlimited and fill in my details and get the download link then it works fine. But if I then click on ‘download’ for any other resource it will simply download the duplicate of Adventure Unlimited.
Please advise on how to resolve this as soon as possible.
Also, I checked in my Downloads > Settings > Updates and it wasn’t showing Form Lock Add-on as having an available update. It would be far more useful if that list reflected which updates were actually available.
right now, you talk about another hotfix: http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/support/topic/no-more-own-linktemplates-in-widgets/
may you please officially tell in some place what issues this will ghost-hotfix will certainly fix?
Hi Shon
But when they finish the check out they reaches the order pages in which we have a edit profile tab, is there anyway to remove that from there
Also how can i customised the premium package email template
and also include the download link in the template
Thanks

That issue got fixed.
I’ve disabled guest orders in favor of requiring users to sign up for accounts before purchasing/downloading. However, when a purchase is completed, it takes the user to a page that does not exist (screenshot #1 attached). Clicking the download link in the email takes them to a page that doesn’t exist as well (screenshot #2).
What is going wrong?
Create a link template using following code:
<h3>[title]</h3>
[file_list]
[download_link]
And use the new link template with your category short-code.
Template Docs: http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/templates/
Questions wrt email lock custom fields:
1.) where do I enter this code (what file)?
2.) If I create a field with the ID of “cust_company”, how do I insert this into that code in the body of the message?
3.) How do I insert custom field data into the template that is used to send the link to the customer? I see in Subscribers>email template that there is [download_url] and [site_name] is there something similar for custom fields? I tried [cust_company] but that doesn’t work.
4.) how do I make a custom field required?
I want to display 2 or 3 downloads side by side on the category. i can make a linktemplate but the downloads are always displayed among themselves. how can i change that?
Hi,
You can create a guest order page using [wpdm-pp-guest-orders] shortcode. After creating that page , save it in Premium Package Settings
https://www.evernote.com/l/AUez_NPgfjVIYZ9P3m263iMUVOMcogGfqfMB/image.png
Guest User can download their ordered product using order id and email address(from checkout step) from that page.
And email for guest download has to refer to that guest order page (currently it sends link of dashboard page, we will update email link in next release of Premium Package ) For now you have edit email template from plugin folder (premium-package/templates/email-templates) dir.
Fatal Error has been fixed (it is from Download Manager ) and updating plugin today.
Thanks.
I have specified for my website to allow for guest checkout, but when I click the order link in the email, it redirects them to the register/log in page (screenshot #1 attached).
Also, is it possible to customize the text of these emails? I don’t want my customers to read that they have to create an account to download their files when they do not (screenshot #2).
Thanks in advance!
I am not getting this interface in my wordpress site. I have updated my version of Download Manager Pro. Please help. I have the same issue. Prior to this past week, I didn’t need a master key to have a direct link to the download. Is this a new feature – using a master key – to enable a direct download? Please help.
Use [download_url] not [download_link].
[download_link] generates link tag itself. So no need to use it as attribute value.

There may be some type of error in the shortcode. I just updated to 4.5.2 and it doesn’t look like it’s rendering properly.
You can see how the code renders in the ‘Preview’ screenshot below.
I am using the shortcode for the Archive “Compact” template and the drop downs for “Category”, “Order by”, and “Order” are not working. (See image attachment)
Shortcode I’m using:
[wpdm-archive cat_view=”compact” button_style=”primary” link_template=”link-template-extended.php” ]
When I click on it nothing happens.
I am using this template:
http://demo.wpdownloadmanager.com/wpdmpro/archive-page-compact/
I have a directory of software documentation online that people can either view online as HTML or download as a PDF.
I just purchased Pro to set up the front end, and it’s working great for the PDFs.
What I’d like to do is have each title have two hot buttons in the file list display — the existing “Download” link in one column and a new additional column for “Open in Browser” for each listing in the Title/File column.
Is there any way to make this happen?
Also, I know the global settings have an option called “Open in Browser” that says “Try to Open in Browser instead of download when someone clicks on download link.” I could kludge something together with this if I had to, if the setting could be applied on a per category or per download basis. Is that possible?
Great plugin, just want it to do more. ;- )
Cheers,
Art
Hello…
I’ve had the same problem.
In my case, this problem had been caused by the add-on “WPDM – Button Templates”.
When I deactivated this add-on, the wrapping box of downloading link disappeared.
We’re experiencing an issue with the default packages shortcode in the latest release [wpdm_packages id=***]. The shortcode is pulling the file name and download count, but the icon and download link appear to be broken. Will this be addressed in the upcoming release? I’ve included a sample of the issue below:
Hi, I have my downloads Email Locked.
The system dispatches email links absolutely fine, however the users email address is not being captured, the Subscribers list is empty!
How do we rectify this please?
I have setup an Admin account for you previously, let me know if you need the details again.
The site is http://www.hpepumps.co.uk/ – there is a test Package http://www.hpepumps.co.uk/_test/ / http://www.hpepumps.co.uk/wpdm-package/testing/
Thank you.
Hi Shaon,
I am new to use Download Manager Pro.
I am not using translation plugin for WordPress, so I just like to simply change the words indicated by the shortcode directly.
When i make the customrized template to tap: [download_link] —> the content shows: “Download” in the frontend.
What shall i do to change the content of “Download” to other words please?
Thank you!

I am getting a message saying there is a new version of Download Manager, so I am click on the link provided, then clicking the + button next to the update. This says “success”. I click “save settings”. However, when I refresh the page, it tells me the update needs doing again.
What’s going wrong?
I have the problem yet.
Maybe the shortcode [wpdm_user_dashboard] does’nt work in localhost…
I activated the permalink, maybe this is the problem?
Sorry for all this question but i don’t understand because i have a dashboard page:
http://localhost/project/dashboard-page
and the links “history download” and “edit profile” navigate to
http://localhost/project/dashboard-page/history-download that send me a 404 error
Thanks a lot for all and sorry for my english
Please see the attached file. It’s a Word doc containing a screen shot of the properties of two Download Manager Packages. Specifically, notice the default Icon path. All the download manager packages that have a broken icon link display an icon path of:
download-manager/file-type-icons/xlsx_win.png. The actual path to the icon files is: download-manager\assets\file-type-icons
However, the download manager packages that display their icons correctly have a blank path. If I manually edit the icon path of the packages that aren’t working correctly and make the path blank, the icon appears as it should.
