Please use http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/download/advanced-tinymce-button/ to generate short-code, there you will see an option to select template, and you need to select Link Template = “Only Link/Button”
The problem was not with the disabled session_start
. In fact it was with the white space at the end of download-manager.php
file.
https://support.godaddy.com/help/article/1654/what-do-i-do-when-i-receive-a-php-header-error-message?locale=en&ci=46061&countrysite=in this link explains the problem better.
Just removed the white space and the problem vanished.
Thus request you to incorporate this in your future versions of the download manager
Direct download links now lead to a blank white screen after updating WPDM Pro to the latest version (4.2) on a website I am building.
Please let me know if there is a solution. Will provide access if requested.
I have created a custom link and page template that I would like to use. I have about 50 downloads. Is it possible to change all of these at once?
Also is it possible to change the the defualt templates to my custom ones? So that way going forward I do not have to select a new one each time.
Thanks. Great plugin you have here. Very user friendly and functional.
Hello, just bought pro version, but I don’t understand how to get things done.
What I need:
1. Simple file list: File name is link, a click downloads it.
2. Simple file list with password protection: File name is link, a click asks for password, after entering passwort download starts.
There a tons of settings, but I can’t find the settings for this simple application.
Cheers, florian.
Hello,
below the link to download there are next and previous buttons, which lead to other download pages, I want to hide that because this way subscribers are able to download other stuff,
I want to hide it and not just make categories, because even in the same category I want to hide downloads because I am manually making download pages for each subscriber
This is a link to a .jsx download using your plugin

try it on safari and see that it adds the .txt to the file name

I have created a page with the following code:
[wpdm_tree category=”executive-committee” download_link=1]
Everything works fine except it does not give me the direct download link; it still only has the link to the package download page.
I have tried it without specifying the category, but to no avail.
[wpdm_tree download_link=1]
The example page is here: http://www.cbhc.org/c-pack
I am currently running version 4.2 with WPDM – Extended Short-codes 2.3.2
Please help!
Hi
Just upgraded to 4.2
The MP3 preview player is not working/broken
I get this error message “Error loading: “http://poprox.co.uk/?wpdmdl=3273&_nonce .. inside the player
It was working fine before I updated. I am on WordPress 4.1
Also .. is it possible to add a video on the download page? I am trying to add an easy media video linked to a youtube video. I get a thumbnail but can’t click to play. Just wondered if there were limitations. Can I upload a video via FTP and link to it?
Thanks
Love the Plugin (when it works 🙂 )

When I add a new package. Is there a way to set default values (ex. Setting the “Link Label”, Selecting “Allow Inidividual File Download”, or setting the Page and Link Template to default values? That way when I add a package I do not have to remember to always set those values each time.
Isn’t here that will add the download link to appear on category pages?
Yes, you can have download link for each file/package on the category pages, please check here http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/templates/ for more details.
About style, probably your theme overriding this, but need to be adjusted from theme developer.
So it looks like Download Manager and Elegant Themes are not compatible, which is why the download link isn’t displaying on the Category pages and why WPDM templates won’t take effect. If I change to a WP default theme (2015) there is a download link on the category pages, but not when using an Elegant Theme. Is there a work around or fix for this?
Is there away to have a download link for each file/package on the category pages? This way the visitor doesn’t have to continuously click each link to a separate page to download each file?
I still have the same issue with individual downloads, I deactivated all the plugins, but still..nothing
about the support, I never saw support like you, from what I know there should be an EMAIL to send my problem on, not just a forum !!
and about the no real fixes, because actually nothing has been fixed till now, and about harming my business because I already have clients waiting for their download links and didn’t get them yet, because of your delay to answer !!
if you want to block external domain, you can use block hotlink add-on http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/download/wpdm-block-hotlink/
Hmm ok.
Is there no way to block access unless referred from a specific domain?
For example, it only downloads if the link is directed/clicked from a domain page?
Kind regards.
#1. about title, you need to create new link template, more details here http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/templates/
#2. for media issue, go to download manager settings page front-end setting tab select roles like following image:

and save settings.
I sent her a download link and it too was expired.
I have a lady who’s using an android tablet, has adobe reader but keeps getting expired links?
Is there something she needs to do?
@rise, I just tested here http://….nl/download/verslagen-2014-2015/ downloads looks like working fine, but individual download link has an issue with v4.1.9 and update is coming tomorrow.

Hello,
I am having trouble modifing the download link. When I check the radio button, in the individual package settings, that reads ” Allow Inidividual File Download” and update it nothing changes I still have only one download button for a zip file containing all the files.
I was wondering what can I do to show all the individual files for download?
Thank you.
