Hi,
You can edit the popup form following the method Tanvir stated above.
FYI Password and email locks are submitted separately as these locks are not linked. But using the Form Lock addon you can lock a package behind a customized form.
Another option is using the Advanced Custom Fields addon to capture additional data with email lock but this one doesn’t provide the password feature.
Thanks.
Hi,
thank you for your reply but I tried your code and the result has been the same.
This is the link that replace the tag [#download_url#] and its result.
What is the problem?
Good evening,
I have issues with your plugin. I’m a pro user and I’ve installed the Download Manager Pro, Google Drive Explorer and Advanced Custom Fields.
On my website the user can fill a custom form, and when them click on “Send”, they will receive an email with the link for the download.
When I installed Google Drive Explorer I followed your instructions to create the API KEY. Every file I upload on my Drive account is visible for people that have the link. The issue is on template email lock email.
I used package_url but it opens the same page I used to fill the form, it’s a loop. I use download_link, download_url they didn’t work. How can I modify the template to obtain a result similar to this: “Download file“, where in the href attribute there’s the correct link to make the download?
Thank you
Please email it to support@wpdownloadmanager.com

Hi,
Fixed the order status issue. Now you can download the latest version from here https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/user-dashboard/?udb_page=purchases
If you face a license-related issue please check the linked site from your order details page. You have to unlock the license from the old site when moving the license to a new domain.
Also, your pro-forum access has been activated.
Thanks.
Good afternoon –
I followed the steps, I believe correctly, for a package to download an .exe file. Yet, when I click on the Download button (tried both), it does not download. While I am not necessarily paranoid, I am pretty sure I hear it laughing at me. This could, I suppose, be my imagination.
When I go into the package and copy the file download link, https://tristarmonitoring.com?wpdmdl=26551&ind=2318, and place it into a new window, bingo, downloads perfectly.
Package Picture
The page is: https://tristarmonitoring.com/download/remote-support-file-download/
Thoughts?
Thank you!

Hi Nayeem,
thank you!
It works, but I’ve a problem with the “keeping backup” part.
I followed this:
1. Changing Template Files in /plugins/download-manager/src/{ComponentDir}/views/ ( Download Manager Plugin ) dir:
Create a dir named download-manager inside your active theme dir
2, Now copy the files you want to modify from /src/{ComponentDir}/views dir to /{active-theme}/download-manager/ dir.
3. Customize template file(s) in {active-theme}/download-manager dir as per your need
4. Keep dir structure, means, a file from /src/Packages/views/link-templates dir should go to /{active-theme}/download-manager/link-templates dir.
If I do this, the change won’t work. If, however, I keep the modified file inside the plugin folder, yes. But, with the next update, the change will be lost.
Can you explain point 4 better to me? What do you mean? Or what should I do?
Best regards
Please send temporary wp-admin login info as a private reply to check the issue. Looks like the popup isn’t working for the package download link button.

Do you mean your zip download works but single file downloads don’t? Please share your package link ( download page ) to check.

Sorry for the confusion. I have told WPDM Block Hotlink add-on will help you to be redirected to the item/package details page or any other page specified by you not direct download. I hope you have understood. please let me know if you have any query more.
Thank you again and regards
I can’t understand, what does Google Drive have to do with it? I don’t need Google Drive, I have Box.com. How can I make sure there is no redirection to an open Box.com link?
Before purchasing, I asked, you said that the download would be from my website. And it turns out it doesn’t work? or did I misunderstand you?

WPDM Block Hotlink add-on will help you to be redirected to the item/package details page or any other page specified by you. The external sites can only place the link to your item/package details page, not the direct download URL. Thus, there is no redirect to the box.com. Please also check the add-ons details page, https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/download/wpdm-block-hotlink/. Please check and let me know
Thank you and regards
I have one more question before purchasing, I started using box.com instead of Dropbox, do you have an add-on https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/download/box-com-explorer/ does it work with WPDM – Block Hotlink?
that is, my link will be hidden and the download will start from my site or will redirect to the box.com page
It is important for me that my link is hidden and there is no redirect to the box.com link

Good day,
I am in the process to set up a dev environment to test WP and WPDM updates before deployment.
As a first step, I need to re-locate the download files to a folder in the webspace root, one level above the WP system files.
Unortunately, WPDM file manager cannot navigate above the WP system directory.
I tried to add a symlink to point to the folder with the download files.
The symlinked folder shows up in WPDM file manager but no files are shown inside for some reason.
Kindly assist.

Hello,
I guess my question is too simple, can’t find a solution in forum…
So when download happens, the (downloaded) file has “(1)” after the file name.
I understand this is a copy of the original, and I did make two link-template for the same download for testing purpose, so that might have to do with this, but cannot get rid of (1).
I have deleted one of the link-template, recreated the package for this particular file after deleting the first one, but no luck…
Any advise is welcomed.
Thank you!
Rika
Yes this is what I need. I just want to ask two questions:
1. Can I insert advertisements on the Lazy Download page? that is, it has its own template for editing
2. Is Lazy Download Add-on compatible with WPDM – Dropbox Explorer + WPDM – Block Hotlink? That is, I can use 3 of these add-ons at the same time
Hello Rika Shimizume,
Hope you are well. Thanks for contacting us. If you are not using any locked package you can try with the below code in your link template
<div class="DL">
<p class="side-txt">Download our info pdf about Racing Boats | ([title])</p>
<p class="button"><a href="[download_url]" class="btn btn-primary"> [title] </a></p>
</div>
please check and let me know
Thank you and regards
Hello,
Somehow I couldn’t find a spot on solution by searching forum… apology if you’ve answered to this kinda question more than a few times by now.
This is what I want:
A simple button to download a flyer from my website.
It’s a flyer with product info for anyone so no need for creating log-ins.
By clicking “download” button, it should start downloading, WITHOUT jumping to download page with file info.
So I created a Link template with download button.
Now flyer PDF file opens on browser.
I rather not to have this open, but starts downloading.
<div class=”DL”>
<p class=”side-txt”>Download our info pdf about Racing Boats | ([title])</p>
<p class=”button”>[download_link]</p>
</div>
I guess I’m looking for something to replace this – download=”file-name” to initiate DL, if you know what I mean.
How can I make this happen?
Thank you for your help!
Rika
Hello,
It seems though wpdm download link is there but javascript is not working propelry when cache is enabled. For that you need to unminify js from cache plugin. That means you shouldn’t cache the javascript files because minifying it some times causes issues and makes javascript unworkable.


If it still doesn’t work I would suggest to contact their support regarding this issue. They will say the properly settings for the cache plugin.
Thanks
Tanvir
