Why are we getting Link-expired.txt when we do not have a “end date” for this download to be available. The downloads need to be active at ALL times. We do not have a “Download Limit”.
Hi there, can you help, we have a big package that covers up to 4 pages. The 4 page links are present, but from page 2 onwards the downloads don’t come through.
try using [download_link_extended] in link/page template rather then [download_link]

you need to use action hook wpdm_before_email_download_link ( in functions.php ) , it passes 2 parameters, 1st is all post data ( like email , name ), 2nd parameter contains all package info.
As I said in case of tree view, It will be available from next update. but for link template with package short-code, please follow instructions here:

Hi,
I want my users to login before download and the download link should be send to their email address. Please Guide how to do this. Secondly i also want to write custom email messages for my users. I do not find any option to do so.
Hi,
I define a package with Email Lock. After publishing the post i test it. It receives the name and email and after pressing the subscribe button i goes to a new window with error message. More over it do not send the download link.
Secondly is it possible to add “or” option in locks. I mean user can perform any 1 lock option between tweeter, G+ or Email to get file.
We are testing the upgrade to 4.1.1 and are seeing the following issues with the WPDM-Archive Page Add-on.
1) Downloads no longer show up on the archive page even though the category counts say they exist.
2) Clicking on a category goes to a category page instead of showing the packages in that category.
3) Clicking on the Down Arrow to show subcategories no longer works.
4) The Settings Page has an option to enable the WPDM Archive Page but it keeps resetting to Disabled.
5) The Category settings have no effect. My theme category page is always showed without the link template or additional values.
Unfortunately, I cannot give you admin access to look at our site as this is large University Multi-site. We are solely using the WPDM Archive View for our download pages so it is very important that this work properly. I downloaded the WPDM-Archive Add On from our account again, per the instructions with the 4.1.1 release, but this made no difference.
I just updated from 4.1.0 to 4.1.1 and everything went to hell! Nothing works anymore. All buttons show Broken image link! The templates for the downloads are gone.
Adding some photos. in the 3.png the downloads were side by side before
UPDATE: I fixed it. It was an error from my end. Sorry for the trouble 🙂
Hello I got the Hotlink addon and I must say it really bringing me back my traffic and I have saved tons of bandwidth… But when i clicked on those people using my hotlinks, it redirect to a random page on my blog. Is there a way to make the redirection land on the right download package?
Thanks
I just purchased an addon for hotlink protection but I seem not to find the the link to download the package. I emailed you support@wpdownloadmanager.com with a screen shot of the payment confirmation page. Hope you get it fixed for me soon..
Thanks
Is there a security measure for the email capture? We are getting dozens of spam emails from our download links.
How do you search these forums? I wanted to search to see if anyone else had this issue but could not find search box.
please give me a temporary wp-admin login info in a private reply, I’ll create a link template for you.

Amazon S3 is not beta, you saw that in a post from 2012. it is 2014. download stats only will be tracked for full package download, it you use individual download link , it will not be counted. Anyhow if you still want to increase count for that please give me temporary wp-admin login info to check
you can both link link same package and enable individual download, so at front-end user will see both link and download then separately.
Okay, so I’ve been playing with it.
Added 1 package containing only one file – Test File #1 – this contains one image and it works fine – I put the shortcode on the page and the name of the package shows up with the download icon – it links correctly and I can download it.
The other package contains 2 files – one is an image and the other is a PDF – Test File #2 – the name and icon do not show up – it’s first on the page, just says “download”, then when you click on it, it says “link-expired”
And here’s a link to page where I placed the shortcode:
http://rab-1.com/contractors/ — Just says Download – no link – no button – no package name
This is the shortcode I placed there: [wpdm_package id='3221']
I still can’t get a download to work… I’ve created another package – I can get the image to download but not the pdf…
Here’s a link – Password for pdf is 9999 it just says “file not found” over and over again

I’ve tried changing many different settings, but i can’t make this work?
Hi,
I installed the download manager pro on my site but there is no “Premium Package” option in “DOWNLOAD MANAGER PRO Settings” as shown in plugin demo backend. Link is given below for plugin demo backend:
“http://demo.wpdownloadmanager.com/marketplace/wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=wpdmpro&page=settings&tab=ppsettings”
and also i did not get any license key with this plugin. Can you please help me so that i make a shop for my files with this plugin.
Hello,
please give me an answer to the problem. I have now a download manager that allow me to create stats and watch the downloads but it do only on the half of the files. All important free downloads are not counted. Free downloads are Amazon S3 downloads.
As I wrote, the packages from S3 and local files are exact the same, expet the linked file. Both packages have one file for download and other settings are the same, include the template to show the shortcode. But in the WDM the S3 files do not get a count.
In an newer post I read that Amazon S3 is Beta. Why you do not give this information on the purchase page? I expect to get well developed and well tested software when purchase.
However, I need a solution for the download counts.
Shaon – I wanted to follow up to see if you have an upgraded plugin. Here are the list of all the problems we are facing for this paid plugin.
Please know that we are launching on Wednesday (tomorrow) and just noticed these problems. We would greatly appreciate any quick help in solving any or all of these issues.
ARCHIVE TEMPLATE
Page template view
# Clicking on the breadcrumb/pathway to go back to the List template view leads to an archive page with a completely different format. The URL ends with /download/ with the subtitle BLOG ARCHIVES instead of the original archive page.
Link template view
# [see attachment] If you are on page 1 and click on “Previous” or on the last page and click on “Next”, the view loads the entire website within WPDM view. It shows the search box followed by the entire website (header + menu + body + footer) for the same view where the archived downloads are supposed to show up. Please modify the archive view so that “Previous” link does not show up when the user is on page 1 and the “next” link does not show up when the user is on the last page of the archive.
# Unlike the category pages, when the user goes from page to page by using the Previous-1-2-3-Next at the bottom, the page does not load and scroll to the top. It stays in the same location. Please keep this functionality consistent. (Low priority)
# Search feature does not work if you use more than one word or spaces after one word.
Category pages
# In the link template view, the “Previous” and “Next” buttons are < and > signs. Please keep this consistent with the archive view.
