Hello, is there any way to wrap the download link with an image? I don’t want any text, just an image I have which says Download.
Your help is appreciated.
Thanks
Hi, I just bought the Download Manager PRO and installed the plugin in WP. I tried the steps described in the docs, but i can’t create the effect i want…. The embed code produces some unwanted results… No matter what i try, the result stays the same… A huuuuge icon, I can’t view the page from wp-admin (404 error)…
here is the link to the page (with the embed code):
http://www.pisk.si/index.php?page_id=1234
Can you give me a hand please?
Thanx

To fill right side, just try select another link template for that category.
And if you looking for premium theme, specially optimized for wpdm pro, you may check here:
http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/downloads/themes/
Not displaying the archive page was caused by renaming the permalink to /download (in the settings there “WPDM URL Pacakge Base” was filled in with “dowload” I don’t know whta this means but the combination made the archive page not work anymore. This is now solved. But the display of the images and the layout and not working of the dropdown on the categories is still not working (I put the file to 777) Hope to hear from you soon.
create a link template with the tag [download_link]. more details: http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/docs/integrated-templates/
@dublin, you should receive a mail (to the email you used to pay at paypal) with instructions. Anyhow, if you don’t see that, please mail your order id to support@wpdownloadmanager.com or contact live support
I can’t find that. I am having lots of problems with the current version. It seems to break the WordPress themes and after applying the CSS fix which is sticked in the first post, the page and link templates layouts look different.
Thank you.
1) That seems like a lot of work for a plugin that’s supposed to have this option. Better to inform people before they buy, IMHO.
2) I see. I took out any locking and tried the link, and it is indeed preventing the download, so this works.
3) cache dir is writable
Anyway, since I wasted more than a day on this I decided to skip the locking. Maybe it’s for the better, at least wpdm gives me a statistic on how many poeple downloaded the files. Thanks
I also bought Block Hotlink, which has a serial number but I was never asked to enter it and haven’t found a way to enable it. Maybe that’s why my downloadlinks in emails is not working? Please advise, thanks.
๐ the plugin attached with previous reply already. anyhow here is the link again:

Thanks everything ok now!
you should get reply by now, if still don’t please give me order id here, I’ll link your order with your account
I have made custom page and link templates, but they do not get applied in my package.
Also, maybe not related, the default “downloads” permalink does not work (404), as specified in the Settings.
Check http://www.robvens.com/downloads
The package link is http://www.robvens.com/download/mgc-4-3-1-voor-windows/
It seems that templates are just for links and places that the package is promoted. Is there a way to customize the appearance of the details page. For example, we want to allow individual file downloads, but there are no passwords. It looks odd to have a table with a blank column for password. Also, we do not need the download button for the zip file. Also, we’d prefer that the row for stock not appear in the other table. What’s that supposed to be for anyways?
- it happening because your theme css conflicts with bootstrap.css, can be resolve just delete some css from bootstrap.css
- delete the file: /plugins/download-manager/modules/css.php . not required anymore from WPDM Pro Xtreme ( v3.3.3 )
- select default link template or user extra class with download link tag, for example:
- [download_link btn] or
- [download_link btn btn-large] or
- [download_link btn btn-large btn-success]
here btn-lage for large button
btn-sccess for green button
similarly you can try , btn-info, btn-inverse, btn-danger , full button class reference is here http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap/base-css.html#buttons

Thanks for the update. However I have some problems with it:1. The text “Email Adresse” in a widget from Wysija Newsletter plugin cannot be read anymore. Disabling the Download Manager solves the problem:2. The link text of a download package appears twice when using the “download link with icon” template:3. It is not possible to use the buttons under settings anymore:Do you have any solution for this?Due to these problems I reverted back to 3.3.2Best,Andreas
1) facebook like not showing because of js conflict, as your page already using another fb library, to resolve that issue disable other fb plugins
2) page showing dark because of css conflict with your theme, anyhow to resolve that replace [download_link] with [download_link_extended]
Thanks Shaon, for shortcodes this might work, but (as the link I provided shows) this does not work when navigating to the category page.
For example I have a category mgc, which you reach with http://www.reflektis.com/downloads/mgc.
You might reach this page also by clicking the category in the WPDM Categories Widget.
In both cases the category description is not visible and I am still looking for a way to accomplish that.
Thanks for your assistance.
yes, you can change flash player.
You were seeing download link expired and some visitor messed up with data, but i re-adjusted those now
will add tag for showing file-type, but already have tag for showing file count, its [file_count] . In link template, if you use [download_link] tag, it will show directly download link
RE #6.
To explain “wish list” #6 further – when you are in the page template and link template editor and go to create a new template, the list of shortcodes could be more aggressive. For the link template I wish I could add a shortcode for the file properties (is it a pdf, mp3, zip etc) so you know what type of file will be downloaded. This would only be an option if a package contains only one item and in my case if a package only has one item I like a direct download link from the link template so they don’t have to go to any detailed package page. If there is more than one item in the package I wish I could add a shortcode for listing how many items are in the package (a number). This helps the visitor know immediately this is a package with x “number” of files. Hope that makes it clearer.
Thanks for your response! Looking forward to future updates.
yes, there is a way.
Open: wpdm-archive-page.php
Goto line# 331
As you see:
We used the template: link-template-default.php
Template location: /plugins/download-manager/templates/
Copy “link-template-default.php” to “link-template-default-noimage.php”
Remove the image from “link-template-default-noimage.php” and save
Now at wpdm-archive-page.php#331 replace “link-template-default.php” with “link-template-default-noimage.php”
You are done!
Hi,
I am creating a two column template and when I use the icon tag it doesn’t bring up the image just a text link. You can see it here on the right side under the picture: http://69.194.230.123/~rtlogic/file-download/channel-simulator/
Can you help me fix this?
Thanks
