Hi,
i have a big problem with a User Dashboard link in User Dashboard page.
I have created a page with shortcode [wpdm_user_dashboard], the page is generated but the left link don’t works.
Edit Profile, History download navigates to 404 error page.
Why?
Is problem’s permalink?
Thanks a lot
However, we are adding some new option with form lock add-on, like start automatic download on for submit and email download link rather than downloading file instantly like email lock.
Not yes, but we are already adding that instant auto download option and email download link option with the add-on and update is coming within this week.

Sorry not clear, I see download pages are downloads are working fine. I’m not seeing link http://www.looopcreative.com/?m=20150323 anywhere in your site. However please give me temporary wp-admin login info in a private reply to check it in details.
Okay, I’m getting closer on my own.
I see in http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/settings/basic-settings/ that there should be on option to “Show Only Login Button Instead of Login Required Message”, but I don’t have that option/link showing on my settings page.
I tried using this code but it redirects to a package page instead of doing a direct download.
<div class=”w3eden”><i class=”fa fa-lock”></i> Login to Download</div>
shahriar,
When I do this it goes to a page. I wanted it to just start downloading when you click the link.
Is there away to do that?
Thank you for your time
@Chris, Direct download link shortcode is [wpdm_direct_link id="package_id"]
See attached LoggedIn image for the link that appears when logged in. I like this just fine.
However, when the user is not logged in, a large panel appears with a message and a login in button (see NotLoggedIn image). What I want instead is a simple button that says “Log in to download”, which would allow the user to log in and then immediately download.
Is this possible?
Here is my template code:
<div class=”wpdm-link-tpl link-btn [color]” data-durl=”[download_url]” >
<div class=”media”>
<div class=”pull-left”>[icon]</div>
<div class=”media-body”><strong class=”ptitle”>[title] <span class=”label label-default” style=”font-weight: 400;”>[file_size]</span>
<div>[download_link_extended]</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div style=”clear: both”></div>
I have a similar need, but to only to direct download one file. So as an example, you hover over a wp download link on the front end you will see a “#” instead of the download URL. Anyway to display the direct download URL on the front-end?
Shaon,
More I think about I really think my use for the limit is more something I would want and don’t think it would work for all users.
So please give it no more thought to that.
Thank you for you time.
Hope to see Direct Link Download in release soon.
@substance151 I am even more frustrated because I asked this before I purchased.
I’d like to think what I want is simple.
Customer wants a download (Demo or otherwise), fills out a form, receives an email (that we can customize to look professional), and clicks the link in the email.
At the same time we get an email with all the info in the form and everyone is happy.
I bought the Pro Pack (seemed like a good deal at the time) . I will check to see if the custom fields addon is included.

You can control email content from Form Plugin (because mail is sent by Form Plugin, not Form Lock addon), Form Lock does not control it. After submitting form WPDM unlocks download link of that package.
Three is no option yet to combine two buttons.
After submitting form, download link added to download button as a popover. A success message also shown there which comes from your form plugin. So there is no need to redirect to a new page.
Is it possible that once a visitor has completed the Email Lock or Form Lock form to redirect to an acknowledgement page that has a brief thank you message with the download button appearing underneath? Currently the download button fades in beneath the form on submit.
I’ve seen Lazy Download Add On come up in other threads, but that won’t work for me because I want the download to happen on the Thank You page itself. Any insight you have would be great, thanks.

Unfortunately, that did not solve the problem. I selected a PDF file to test with, set to public access (anyone with the link can view) and then added to my package. When I click the download link, I still get ERR_CONTENT_LENGTH_MISMATCH.
I have installed the updated Google Drive add-on, and I love the new interface. But I am having one problem: I can’t download any files I’ve tested so far.
I’ve tried two file types: Google Docs format and PDF.
I have no idea if a Docs format is supposed to work, or what’s supposed to happen….was just testing: would I get a PDF’d version of it, or a direct link to the online version? Turns out, I just get a 404 error.
So I tried a PDF file, because that should work. However, I get an error page (in Chrome) that says: “This webpage is not available ERR_CONTENT_LENGTH_MISMATCH”
You already have admin access to my account, if you wish to look at my site. The test package is called “Canvas English Test”.
HI Shaon,
Thanks for your efforts — you definitely got rid of the duplicate button. However, the look I wanted was what I had set up with my other template. I had modified another existing template, and ended up with two download links….and now, I can’t figure out what was wrong with it, to cause the duplicate. What I really need is a fix to the template I made, not a new template to modify (and perhaps ruin).
Can you please look at my template code here, and see what is wrong with it?
<div class="panel panel-default">
<div class="panel-body">
<div class="media">
<a class="pull-left" href="[page_url]">
[thumb_60x60]
</a>
<div class="media-body">
<h4 class="media-heading" style="padding-top: 0px;border:0px;margin: 0px;height: 20px;overflow: hidden">[page_link]</h4>
[excerpt_160]
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="panel-footer"><div class="pull-left" style="line-height: 30px;"><i style="margin: 2px 0 0 5px;" class="icon icon-download-alt"></i> </div> <div class="pull-right">[download_link]</div><div style="clear: both"></div></div>
</div>
- OK
- Yes, it will work
Note: Yes, if file name and location is not changed, then user will always get the updated copy when you update files using ftp, you don’t need to update package ( post ) from wp-admin.
Question 1: Do you think this is going to be my best bet for this type of file management?
— Yes, I think so ๐
Answer for Q2:
Yes, you can make file password protected, wpdm has option for that, also there is email lock option, but use will get access to download or mail download link to their inbox as soon as they submit email, no email verification with Accept/Decline option there, but you may use our custom upgrade team to build an add-on for this.
Sorry, From lock doesn’t mail download link to email. If you want to mail download link you will have to use email lock option.

I purchased WPDM and the Form Lock add-on (for its Contact Form 7), but they don’t achieve what I’m looking for.
What I want to make is the following:
– Obtain the email from a Contact Form 7 form that I made, and email the user a unique link to download the file
– Store all of my form content into a database. It’s already set up with a Firebase script inside my Contact Form 7, which works fine on my webpages, but CF7 doesn’t seem to send data when it’s part of the Form Lock add-on for WPDM (the form data is not being sent to my database).
Any advice to resolve any of the above is appreciated. Thanks.
