with link/page template you need to use tag [file_list] and enable individual download from package settings.
After setting up amazon s3 add-on, you will see amazon s3 file list there in edit package window.
i just bought this add on, is it posible to email download links after form submision? to confirm the email is valid?
Hi,
When I enable the email lock the download link no longer works. Nothing happens when clicking the link and I don’t receive any errors either.
Any advice much appreciated, this feature was the main reason I purchased the pro version.
Thanks
looks like dropdown is working fine:
short-code for style 3 is:
[wpdm-archive link_template="link-template-extended" button_style="danger"]
I purchased and installed the Mailchimp Add-on. When I create a package with multiple files, I set it to allow for individual file download and apply the email lock.
I expect, with those settings, that the user can enter their email address and then be allowed to download the files individually. Instead, they enter their email address and are then given a link to a zip file via email and they are also prompted to save a single zip file to their computer.
Is there any way to make it work like I described? (One entry of email and individual file download.) Or do I have to create a separate package for each file?
Well, then I don’t need a downloadmanager if I have to do almost everything manually :-/
Great would be a feature where I have to set on one click that the downloadmanager uses the direct file-link instead of running a script.
I believe I may have the same issue as this post
[wpdm_frontend] tabs are "not" clickable
On the front end, the buttons/links to not respond. If you right click and open in new tab, the URL from the top menu will load but the upload/drag and drop area are not working.
Any help is appreciated.
My URL is

hi Shaon
Just wondering how I can simply hyperlink a string of text to go straight to the download file (without any extra pages or buttons). I can’t see any mention of it in the documentation.
Thanks
/D
the extra download link downloads all files in a single zip file and that is the actually main download link, the other download links are showing as you enabled individual download option, anyhow if you want to remove the full package download, edit/clone that template and remove [download_link] tag from there.
Correct download link is http://www.protoolsforunity3d.com/?wpdmdl=643, anyhow please give me temporary wp-admin login info in a private reply to check your issue.
Hi,
I keep getting this text hyperlink “download” added to every package below and left of the template file list/download icons for some reason any ideas?
When I click on the “Download” link shown, all that happens is I am re-directed to the home page of the site. No download happens. Any help please?
I have searched the docs and do not see how to fully use this feature. I can add users in the “box” just fine, of course, but then how do I go forward from there? I have tried adding the download button via shortcode, and it is visible to all, not just those with the specific user role that I chose.
Also, the file actually doesn’t download at all. For any user. Clicking the download link just goes right back to the home page of my site.
Thanks for the help.
Hey Shaon, theme developer here,
ok, so here is the deal.
I will try to explain problem again:
So lets take for example this link: http://teetoolkit.com/?wpdmdl=462 this is the URL that your plugin generates. It links to a file that is on Amazon S3, and its uploaded there with the add-on for your plugin. Now if you try to copy the above link in your browser you will be able to download the file. Which is not good, because I’ve added to the “Allow Access:” section of your plugin option that only Administrator and Subscriber can download that file. But as you can see here, that does not work.
Also MagicMembers are disabled so they are not interfering, I already tried this with the default theme and the result is the same. So please don’t tell me that this is because of MagicMembers or the theme. Because it is not. Something is wrong with your plugin and we want you to fix it, so we can make site go live.
I will not even go into the other problem – which is that the download counter isn’t working for S3 downloads. We’ll deal with that later, after the file protecting issue is fixed.
P.S – download counter and file protection works just fine if the file is hosted on our server, so that’s one more piece of evidence that nothing is wrong with MagicMembers or the theme. The problem is either in your plugin or in the S3 add-on to your plugin. Which ever the case may be, you have to fix it.
Thanks,
Regards,
Ivan Doric
When I am in my wordpress dashboard and I click on All Packages, all of my download packages show up. Usually there is a link that I can bring up the package to edit it but right now there is no edit link that shows up. Everything else is appearing except the edit link. I have attached an image to show that that edit link is not showing up.
Thanks Shaon,
Ok point understood. But if I want to simply hyperlink a piece of text (irrespective of theme) to the download of the file, how do I do that?
“I have linked the button to the package on Download manager Pro.” but that is a theme module and it is showing as the theme developer did that, wpdm has no control over it. So if you want to add direct download link there, please ask theme developer to change that module.
Sorry Shaon
But I don’t understand. I have linked the button to the package on Download manager Pro. If you click on the button you’ll see it.
I guess my question all along is how can I very simply hyperlink this button to the file that I have uploaded to DM. Thanks

Good Day Sir, I am having this errors after Enable Email Lock.
I need your help!
Thanks.
{“error”:”<div class=\”alert alert-success\”>Download link sent to your email!<\/div>”,”downloadurl”:””}
Hi
Currently the div that holds the current download link and details is to big and it breaks my layout moving the sidebar below the content. Screenshot attached.
I can’t seem to find the “col-md-6” class in css file. Can you point me in the right direction? I have the saya theme installed.
Thanks

more details about templates are explained here http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/templates/link-template/ and http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/templates/creating-a-new-template/
for text change please open /plugins/download-manager/functions.php, search and replace exiting text with yours
Thanks Shaon,
I created a new template just with the [download_link] tag, uploaded a datasheet and linked it to a button within my theme. But when I click on the button to download it, it’s still taking me to the package details and not to the download directly. What am I doing wrong?
