I am also curious how I can not show the download link instead of the registration form for logged in users. We just end up wth a random link on the page. Thanks!
Hi Shaon, I’ve bought the FULL ADD-On pack, with PDF stamper.
I installed it, and tested it from within wordpress – did save my file as a draft.
And yes, my email address was stamped on the document when I downloaded it.
But when I publish the page, and then when I download the PDF from another browser as a regular visitor,
with the ‘Lock Option – Enable Email Lock’ on, then the email I enter was not imprinted on the PDF file.
Only the the text – The buyer\’s email address without any email or other info.
Is it possible to link the PDF stamper to the input info of the ‘Email Lock Feature’?
Or is it possible to link the PDF stamper to the input field of the ‘Form Lock’ Feature?
Or does the PDF stamper only works when the specific user has a ‘role’, as in any kind of membership site?
Thanks a lot,
Steven
Hello
I want to get the layouts archive page of this link: http://demo.wpdownloadmanager.com/wpdmpro/archive-page-compact/
I supose it’s an add-on or it’s included in WPDM? How can I get the archive page add-on?
Than
Thanks! I removed the line of code and now it works. I’m posting another quick question on the login/register box. I don’t want to show the download link on the front page when people are logged in. I just want to say, already a member, click here and access all the great stuff )blah blah etc etc. on one half the page and on the other show the login/register WPDM has for non-members. I don’t mind that registered users will still see that as I can build something that says welcome so and so. I just don’t want the box to disappear and the user to see a download link to nothing.

How do I control the content of the page for the detail presentation of a file download?
For example, on your demo page, I can click a link to download a link directly, without going first to a detail page, or I can click the title of the link and go to a detail page like this: http://demo.wpdownloadmanager.com/wpdmpro/wpdm-package/lock-test/
On my website, the detail page defaults to a blog page, and inherits sidebars etc that I don’t want in the downloads section. How do I specify that the detail link clicks through to a Page I have already created which is not a blog post page?
Yes, you can do that, in verse theme, only download link should be disabled when user doesn’t have access.

Yes, for “locked” packages in archive page, there may cause some js issue because of theme or active plugin, in such case, you need to remove [download_link] tag from the link template you are using for archive page, users will be able to download from details page without any such trouble.
Actually, user will see download link as soon as they submit form, they only will need to token to communicate further, otherwise, they can ignore it. However, you can mention it in email message.
Thank you. But I don’t want the email to have a token code for access. That will be too difficult for the user. What are my other options? Can the email just have a download button or link?
YOu need to use this http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/download/user-review-add-on/
List of Template Tags to use with Link/Page Template:
[wpdm_reviews] – will generate the complete review UI
[rating] – will show the average rating for a package
[rating_stars] – will show the rating option for a package with ★ symbols
Thanks for the answer!
At this link you can see that the documents have the creation date displayed to today, even if one document has the creation date on 01 December and the other one 05 of December (attached image “date-for-documents.jpg”): http://www.alessandro-ditrapani.it/blog/download-manger/
In fact, on the document page you can see the actual creation date (http://www.alessandro-ditrapani.it/blog/download/first-pdf/).
Would need the actual creation date to be displayed in the table and not the current date. These documents were inserted using the latest plugin version 2.8.3
Thanks, Dana
Hi,
Use [download_link_extended] template_tag. It embeds email form with download link. I already did it in your custom template, now email field is showing in download page.

I have email lock activated for this package: http://dev.proutinstitute.info/file/basic-features-of-prout/
But the email signup form is not showing up. I am using a custom template which is using the [download_link] shortcode.
Why is the form not showing up?
Hi,
You can use custom link template and set the download url to open in new tab. Just use target blank like following example,
<a target="_blank" href="[download_url]">Download</a>
Creating a new template ( http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/templates/creating-a-new-template/ )
Thanks.
Hi,
Sorry for delayed reply. There is no shortcode for this case. But you can share a direct download link with anyone and that person can download using master key from package settings. But that might not work for your use case.
However, as i said before, we will extend download manager to serve direct download for 100% discounted user roles.
Thanks.
No shortcode for whole category download, but you can use tree shortcode with direct download which will show all files of selected category and will be downloaded onclick.
Here is the shortcode,
[wpdm_tree category=”category_slug” download_link=”1″]
You have to install extended shortcode addon ( http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/download/wpdm-extended-short-codes/ ) to use tree shortcode.
Thanks.
please give me your URL to check. The form view ( embedded / pop-over / popup ) will depend on template tag your used in link/page template.
- [download_link] – popover form
- [download_link_extended] – embedded form
- [download_link_popup] – popup form

Hi,
You can create a custom page template to show customized package data (show/hide specific info).
Check this doc http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/templates/page-templates/ It shows how to set page template in package settings.
Follow this link to check how to create a custom page template http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/admin-panel/templates/creating-a-new-template/ After that select it as your page template in package settings.
Thanks.
You only need to delete your free version plugin to upgrade to Pro version. You will not lose your old data. It’s already mentioned in this link WordPress Download Manager Pro installation
Activating Form Lock and selecting a form created with Live Forms or Ninja Forms only displays the form when the embedded template is selected. In no situation so far does this sequence end in display of a working download link. Please provide or point me to template examples/documentation for proper use of Form Lock.
