When I’m posting links to my files for download the link takes people to “Home > Wpdmpro > File Name”. I don’t want the Wpdmpro to show up. What are my options? Can I change this name, if so where and how? Can I just remove it, if so how? Any help would be great.
If you are using public downloads, you can use like this <a href="[download_url]" target="_blank">[link_label]</a> in link/page template to open download link in new window. Template Docs: http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/templates/
Probably you are trying to use [download_url] tag to link directly, but you can’t use <a href="[download_url]">text</a> for locked package, you need to use [download_link] instead, that will generate complete download form with lock options.
On some of my packages I’m getting reports of a “link-expired.txt” file being downloaded and/or also “Webpage not available” rather than the package downloading correctly.
I use email lock on all the packages with the link sent to email.
I’ve tried updating all plugins, regenerating master key for packages which I know have the issue and removing email lock. Nothing seems to work.
How do I fix it?? And how do I find out which of my 58 packages are affected! Like I said it seems only a few are affected, others are working as normal.
I have created a package that contains two files. The package is protected with a password. The page displays correctly, but when I click the download link I see a link-expired.txt file in the download manager.
It contains the following text: “Download link is expired. Please get new download link.”
I have an problem with locked downloads.
It works fine on download link button.
But the Picture link works wrong – it don’t comes the password window it download a link-expired.txt
If you select “Hide Everything” from Download Manager settings option “When user is not allowed to download:”, then all packages short-code also show hide everything
Administrator in back end can see everything, wpdm actually has nothing to do with it 🙂 .
The WordPress plugins says Image Button v2.3.1 is now available, but when I click on the link “Download v2.3.1”, it does not link to the Image Button download page. Also, when I search for Image Button, the latest version I can find is v.2.20. Is v2.3.1 available and if so, where is it located?
Some of them are still hidden. For instance on this page, on the first tap that says “INTRO”,at the bottom, on the left side to the video,there must be a doc named “PIST-Acronimos”, the code is there, but is not showing.
It is there, but you where not seeing it, because “Hide Everything” option was select in wpdm settings page, when user don’t have access to the item. Now, I’ve selected the option “Only Block Download Link”, so info is showing for everyone but only authorized users will be able to download.
Also, I need to remove the link from each download, for instance if you see the image, people could share this link with other free-subscriber. Please only show the DOWNLOAD link, and not the FILE permalink.
You can hide file permalink from link template by replace [page_link] tag with [title]. Docs: http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/templates/ , but even an user share download link or permalink publicly, unauthorized users will not be able to download the item.
Don’t worry, if you allow a package to specific member group(s), only users under those group(s) will be able to download the item.
You need to create custom link/page template from Admin Menu Downloads Templates without [download_count] tag, or clone current link/page template you are using there, remove [download_count] tag and save as new template, then use the new template for your packages.

I have a problem when I try to download several file packages on my website.
It concerns the link template.
After loading my site I can download one package only. It doesn’t matter which one, but it’s always just one.
After that by moving to the other package links this popup appears – see the screenshot.
