I repeat, you have admin access.
I am a developer, and I have implemented your code exactly as you provided it, swapping out the “link-template-id” for the ID of my link template that I created.
Did you download the .txt? That code is tabulated properly. Swap the .txt for a .php and then you’ll be able to open it up in your favorite code editor and get syntax highlighting.
These slow and unhelpful responses are turning into a problem. Our client is getting frustrated that we have not completed our task.
I also am curious why the text and media I had input into the download file don’t show up– I only get a box with the attached file content.
See the attached screen shots… 1) shows how the page looks– only has the “download” link and file name, but 2) shows there is a bunch of text and image within the DM file.
?

Hi Shaon
I’m having some problems but not sure whether it’s shortcodes or something else.
Prior to updating to the latest version everything worked fine but now most downloads are no longer working – the correct file is being located on the server but returning a 404 error page.
In addition, the [wpdm_tree] and [wpdm_tree category=” “] codes ares no longer working and just keep showing the directory listing (including all categories even with the category=” ” code used) without showing the download packages. I have also been using the wpdm_extended shortcodes plugin for quite some time now so it’s not that causing the problem.
The files are served from the S2Member plugin and not from download manager but the browse path is set to the S2 member_files directory in the download manager settings and has previously worked fine until the recent update.
All 3,000+ files were uploaded using the bulk upload (which also has problems displaying user added icons in the download manager interface although these do show up on the site so not a big problem).
As for the downloads themselves I’ve been using the format a href= “http://btbclient.thebusinesstoolbox.co.uk/?s2member_file_download=ACCIDENT Log.doc” target=”_blank”>Download /a (arrow brackets left out to stop automatic linking on this post) in the LINK_LABEL field
and in the FILES field I’m using the format – /home/jefford2/public_html/btbclient/wp-content/plugins/s2member-files/acquiring commercial property.pdf.
To test the a href link I removed it from one package and it downloaded fine from the DM manager. But the files need to be served from the S2member plugin so I can’t use the download manager for this. And it would take days to change every package to remove the link even if I wanted to go down that route. The problem appears to be with the link label here.
So apart from the wpdm_tree and category shortcodes not working, the link label is also not working for an a href link.
I have also tried clearing the download manager cache but this has had no effect can you help please?
Yes, you can show the download link for single package, please use this add-on http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/download/advanced-tinymce-button/ to generate short-code.
Those are not button image, they are individual link template, you need to install this add-on http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/download/wpdm-button-templates/ and use short-code [wpdm_button_template id=package-id style="style-name" align="alignment"] in your page or post.
“However the post itself contains social links at the bottom” <--- this is either coming from another plugin or active theme, you need to disabled those from that plugin or theme settings for download manager packages.
I’ve pinpointed the problem with the file downolads and this is that the a href in the link label is no longer working. I tested this by removing the link label in one download package and it downloaded fine from the DM manager. But the fiels need to be served from the S2member plugin so I can’t use the download manager for this. And it would take days to change every package to remove the link even if I wanted to go down that route.
So apart from the wpdm_tree shortcode not working, the link label is also not working for an a href link.

OK pesky automatic link I’ll try that one again – the link obviously starts with ““:
//btbclient.thebusinesstoolbox.co.uk/?s2member_file_download=ACCIDENT Log.doc” target=”_blank”>Download
Sorry my download link format changed to an actual link when I updated the last post. The format should read “Download”
Cheers
Caroline
In addition to my post above – the [wpdm_tree category=””] is not working either and only shows all categories including those outwith the specified category but never gets to the file download level.
As for the downloads themselves I’ve been using the format Download in the LINK_LABEL field
and in the FILES field I’m using the format – /home/jefford2/public_html/btbclient/wp-content/plugins/s2member-files/acquiring commercial property.pdf
All 3,000+ files were uploaded using the bulk upload (which also has problems displaying user added icons in the download manager interface although these do show up on the site).
Having updated all the documents recently I just overwrote the files already stored in the S2member_files folder. All are the correct filenames and extensions etc. so no different from original files and since I have previously overwritten files in this way without problems I don’t think this is an issue.
Cheers

Login info is not working, however short-code [slideshare id=32615157&doc=drvalya-140322141806-phpapp02] may not working in wpdm desc, but your can use the embed code directly.
For slide share url , may you please try disabling other plugins? As you see here http://demo.wpdownloadmanager.com/wpdmpro/wp-admin/post.php?post=9566&action=edit ( login: demo / demo ) , no problem in adding slider share link
Hi
Just buy a special pack. Is there any option to display download links for a single file ?
hi, I’m new here so not sure I have this down yet. I created a download package, which was easy enough to do. However the post itself contains social links at the bottom, as well as blog postings from my site. How do I remove this information from my download post? thanks
Can you help me detailed instructions please.
I think you have too many members want this like me, because i have more than 20k post with download link 🙁

Thanks! I got the latest download with this shortcode [wpdm_packages template="link-template-button" order_by="modified" order="desc" paging="0" items_per_page="1" title="" desc="" cols=1 colsphone=1 colspad=1]
However is it possible to customise the link label in the shortcode? Separate to the Package settings. I also tried the WPDM Image Button add-on, but it changes the download link globally, where I only need it specific to one shortcode.
1. I can not add a slideshare link in the download “URL attach file”. When I add a slideshare link the wp download manger post just ignores it and doesn’t accept it. Slideshare link I’m trying to insert into the URL attach file: http://www.slideshare.net/upenderus/osteoporosis-prevention-management
2. I can not add the slideshare wordpress shortcode into the description area. The wp download manager post ignores it. Slideshare shortcode I’m trying to insert in description area [slideshare id=32615157&doc=drvalya-140322141806-phpapp02]
Does anyone else have this issue?
How do I fix it?
How do you add links to slideshare videos or add slideshare videos to the download library?
Thanks.
—– Yes, you can, simply edit email template from Admin Menu Downloads Subscribers Email Template Tab , remove [download_url] with “Download Here” text and link it with [download_url] tag .
— Yes, it still will send email. Otherwise need to edit code
— For customization, please contact customize@wpdownloadmanager.com
Thank you for your quick reply Shaon. It does not cover my complete question yet though.
– How do I make an hyperlink of [download_url] so that I can use the shortcode [download_url], which will automatically inputs the url, but hides it like “Download here” <– That will of course not work?
– With the “Download Instantly” it is still sending the e-mail. Can we have them to register their name + e-mail for the download, but without us sending an e-mail with the link.
– Have you got more information about this last question?
Thank you!
Vincent
– When sending the email, we don’t want to show the complete url as done with [download_url]. Is it possible to make “download_url” appearing as a hyperlink? For example an underlined “Click here” with the download_url hidden in that link of course.
— Yes, you can, simply edit email template from Admin Menu Downloads Subscribers Email Template Tab
– Is it possible to download immediately, without sending an e-mail? We would like this option for some of the downloads, but still include the e-mail lock.
— Yes, you can, while selecting email lock, there you also have another option to select “Download Instantly”
– Is it possible to add more required fields to the subscriber form? “company” / “function” ?
— It will require some customization in code.
Dear WP Download Manager Dev Team,
Could you please update me when you finally expect this to be fixed? You promised that in the next version it will be… and it is not 🙁
As said I can use the LinkedIn Share within my website without any problems. What is the real issue not being able to fix this for WP Download Manager Pro?
As said, one of my preference chosing this product was the LinkedIn Lock functionality, which is now months not working 🙁
Many thanks!
Best Regards,
lcseri
Hi Shaon,
Our downloads aren’t working – they are all on email lock, but when a user enters their email address it just freezes saying “processing” and emails with the download link are NOT sent.
Help!
Dear Shaon,
I have just started to use Download Manager Pro.
We are now testing it in a demo environment; http://www.ictcentrale.nl/demo/branded/register
We only want to use a couple of simple functions, without too much other hassle:
– Download documents
– When user clicks to download, pop-up for the e-mail lock
– Download link is send to users e-mail
It’s all possible and working, but we like to change the following:
– When sending the email, we don’t want to show the complete url as done with [download_url]. Is it possible to make “download_url” appearing as a hyperlink? For example an underlined “Click here” with the download_url hidden in that link of course.
– Is it possible to download immediately, without sending an e-mail? We would like this option for some of the downloads, but still include the e-mail lock.
– Is it possible to add more required fields to the subscriber form? “company” / “function” ?
Kind regards,
Vincent Weening
