Hello,
I have recently purchased your plugin because I am selling antivirus/web protection software to people and I needed a way to lock down the installation files. I do not want anyone to be able to download my packages without first entering the password I give them. That way I don’t have extra licenses floating around that I’m paying for. Well today, on my android device, I got a notification that someone had downloaded one of my files. I have all download package pages not indexed and not in my sitemap and there is no direct link other than the forward I have from PayPal. So far, this download hasn’t been redeemed to a license, but it makes me nervous that someone could download the file without the given password…
Could you check to see if this is possible and if this has ever happened?
Let me know. Thanks!
for doc preview, please create link and page template with [doc_preview]
tag and use those for your package. More details about templates http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/templates/
wp get link template name, use code <?php get_package_data($package_id, "template"); ?>
, more details http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/function-reference/get_package_data/
I just purchased Download Manager Pro. I had a working copy of free Download Manager, but after installing Download Manager Pro, i get blank pages on all admin, pro links including settings. It works fine without Pro plugin. Please help. I have the latest word press installed.

Having the same issue as a new user with a new install. In my case, I can use the S3 metabox on the Add New Package page to browse, create buckets, upload, and attach files. But when I try any actual download links on the front-end package page, I get something like this back:
<Error>AccessDenied
<Message>Access Denied</Message><RequestId>95018697C3483B8C</RequestId><HostId>q1xdt364JafdEUe9gb8spFIQRjpm1IIGcM9T77jxD7v8u1ApEhYrDKBGxBu0TMYD</HostId></Error>
My AWS IAM user (whose keys are being used in WPDM Cloud settings tab) has AmazonS3FullAccess user policy attached. Please advise. Thank you. (Note: I’m unable to provide login access to either AWS nor WordPress.)

Thank you. I need its on single-page-template, because I wan’t to work only with 1 picture for the downloads on all places in page and Thumbs. because the pictures will have a look like download button it is better if the user on single page can use the picture for download to – like the button link, because the will klick on, I think.
you need to create a link template with code <a href="[download_url]">[thumb_300x300]</a>
to link download directly with featured image thumbnail.
I have install the add ons and now it works for me. But it is no good idea for every little function to have another plugin. its slow down the wp. would every plugin works this way you will need hundreds of plugins 🙁
It would be better, pay the money with template and archive possibilities for one plugin …
But I like your solution. it is what I need.
Only one question for now: How can I in single template give the thumbnail the download link? (I want download link and thumbnail link work for download because the thumbnail picture has an download massage in picture)
Thanks für your solution

We don’t understand, how we make category templates to get for example out all thumbnails of an category … we only find out a archive page looks very bad… only links
trying short cuts like this:
[wpdm_category id="Category Slug(s)" title="Custom Title Here or 1" desc="Custom Dscription or 1" toolbar="1" order_by="field name" order="asc or desc" item_per_page="10" template="temaplte name or ID" cols=4 colspad=2 colsphone=1]
i get only a tab give out the text but not the downloads .
maybe we need WPDM Directory Add-on to give out categories?
but the plugin is from 2012 …
sorry for misunderstanding. but the men tries to help me first – works with a lot of plugins before and made a lot of wp installations
has problems too, to understand
may be you have an integration tutorial, what is to do step by step for integration in own templates…
(looking for example php code I have to integrate in the taxonomy-wpdmcategory.php and single-wpdmcaategory.php)
I told you to upload files using ftp so that you don’t have to recreate packages, as file names were already associated with package, if you would just upload the files using ftp, all download link would work fine 🙂 .
Hi shaon,
i wrote this message to the support too, (support@wpdownloadmanager.com) but no answer till now.

I am having the exact same problem on a protected post. Two downloads are working but the larger one is not showing the download link.

You need to create a custom link template, docs for templates are here http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/templates/ , FYI: while creating link template you simply need to skip [page_link] tag to avoid link to details page.
Yes, you can use your own custom html/css with link template.
HI, in my project I have to set one wp page for downloads. As I insert the shortcode [wpdm_package id="whatever_id"] I get a button with the direct download and an anchor that leads me to the download sub-page. I do not want to move away from the wp page… how do I eliminate the second link? Also, it seems almost impossible to customize anything with CSS because a lot of style is hard-coded into the plugin. Is there a way to be able to use our custom CSS and match the website style? Thank you.
yes, <a target="_blank" href="[download_url]">[link_label]</a>
On my installations i have a lot of errors on error log
like

On Wpengine support they told me to contact you about performance of plugin . The website have 900.000 visits per month. Now i have installed 4.1.7 of download manager. Is there any optimisation on the newer version for performance. or is there any way to make it faster because i have a lot of 504 errors.
I am sending also in image WPengine ticket conversation
I even did, and they pointed me to this forum… 🙁
So what to do now? Can you please just give me
an download link for 3.3.8.
Thanks.
Best regards
Micha
in link/page template use <a target="_blank" href="[download_url]">Download</a>
The plugin page is telling me there is a newer version available of 4.1.9 but when I checked the details link – the version is up to 4.2.1. I have downloaded that file now but I have forgotten how to update… Can someone please provide the link to the update instructions! I cannot find.
Helo,

Antennas
54b6d3e8bf5cf
DAS Distributed Antenna Systems
