Hello,
I can’t download multiple files that I uploaded to the server. The buttons just doesn’t respond. Button on link template works correct. The problem occurs only on page template. What I need to do? Thanks
You are right Nayeem.
I did not realize that this became a search field rather than a button activating a searching popup.
Maybe imho it should show the label “Search” and not “Select” as the user expects a different thing like a combo, but it works, thanks!
Still need to fix the all download page from the link I posted.
How can I do please?
Hello Alc Cad,
Hope you are well. The latest version shortcode will be,
[wpdm_archive button_style="default" template="link-template-default" cols=1 items_per_page="10" orderby="title" order="ASC" login=1 last_state=0]
I hope it will work fine for you. For more shortcode details and parameters, please check those from here,
WPDM Directory Add-on
The archive page add-on latest version is 4.4.6
please check and let me know, if you face any problem
Thank you and regards
Hello Bart van den Dool,
Hope you are well. you can use [audio_player]
or [video_player_800x500]
in your related page or link template. For more template tags, you can explore the doc here, https://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/doc/templates/template-tags/. please check and let me know
Thank you and regards
Hello carin otten,
Hope you are well. You can restrict categories for certain roles/users from the WPDM category edit option. For categories hierarchy, giving access to a certain category for a particular role you have to set from the edit category option, then you have to make empty for the Allow Access
option or have to give a particular role on it like as I image attached or as usual for the select member option too,

because
Package Access = Package Access + All Category Access = All Visitors + Author = All Visitors
and Package Access = Package Access empty + Category Access(Author) = Author
or Package Access = Package Access(Author) + Category Access(Author) = Author
More details can be found in the below link,
Allow Access: Access Control Option
I hope you have understood now.
please check and let me know
Thank you again and regards

Hello Leo Almeida,
Hope you are well. Are you meaning download the files where the shortcode is placed? For that, you can customize the link or can also use prebuilt link-templates, to customize link templates you can use template tags from here,
Template Tags
for the download URL, you can use
[download_url]
Usage:
<a href="[download_url]" class="btn btn-info">Download Now!</a>
Or you can also use [download_link]
And for backup safely your files, you can follow this doc,
Template Files
please check and let me know
Thank you and regards

Hi,
recently the ?wpdml= for an direct link stopped working correctly.
When accessing for an example:
https://www.international-petroleum.com/download/?wpdmdl=2561
https://www.international-petroleum.com/download/?wpdmdl=2557
https://www.international-petroleum.com/download/?wpdmdl=2558
It gives the same files to download, while it should be different files.
But when adding some random text in the url like:
https://www.international-petroleum.com/wadawdawd/download/?wpdmdl=2558
It gives the correct document.
honestly there is no link yet, I’m working locally.
but the concept is simple, there are files where I would like to be downloaded via a button with the text document1 other files I would like to be downloaded via another button called document2.
currently (if I’m not mistaken) all buttons have the name “download” which is then translated into various languages.
thankyou
Hello,
Thanks for the access.
I see you are using the block from WPDM Gutenberg.
Currently the feature to visit category link is not there.
However, you can check our below addon. If you check the demos there, you will see there are different shortcodes to show categories properly with link.You can also change link templates properly by parameter in the shortcode.

Apparenty, I can’t combine lock functionality. For example, I can’t require both a password and the imputation of other name and email address and then send them a link to download the document. Is this correct?

As the WPDM Block Hotlink add-on will help you to block hot links to download URLs from external sites, it will not work when it’s a link to an external download site. I hope you have understood.
Thank you and regards
Hi,
Now it works perfectly for my files stored on my server.
But it doesn’t work when it’s a link to an external download site.
Exemples:

Hi,
I disable the WPDM – Block Hotlink plugin as it blocks all my download links.

I’m obviously not understanding this tool. I want to password protect company policies such that only my employees can download them. I have 530 employees and all but ~55 work remotely full-time. I’ve created the registration and login pages. But the only way I can see to display the over 100 policies to them so they can choose which one(s) they want to download is to assign a common category to all the documents and then provide a link to that category. Of course, this bypasses the login process, so I’m at a loss as to know what to do.
Hi,
I just installed the WPDM plugin – Block Hotlink.
Download links are blocked if they are launched outside the page of my site, It’s OK !
I use a page template that uses [download-url] and no more download links.
Example: https://nicolascoolman.eu/download/zhpdiag/
There is a redirect to the same page.
Please let me know if there is a solution or if I need to disable the plugin.
Best regards
Je viens d’installer le plugin WPDM – Block Hotlink.
Les liens de téléchargement sont bien bloqués s’ils sont lancés en dehors de la page de mon site.
J’utilise un modèle de page qui fait appel à [download-url] et plus aucun lien de téléchargement ne passe
Exemple : https://nicolascoolman.eu/download/zhpdiag/
Il y a redirection vers la même page. Merci de me dire s’il y a une solution ou si je dois désactiver le plugin.

Hi Nayeen,
and thx for your response. with the following Link you can see a screenshot.
In English the message would be “Download will be available from 31. December 2099 02:00 AM. The page where we use your plugin is a closed page so I am not able to give you access to it. Because of the Server Time the shown time is wrong and we want do delete the time information in the alert-message.
Is there a way to do this?
I found a way to change the alert-message string when the page is loaded first time. Here I use the following code in a html-modul on the page.
<script>
// Wählen Sie alle Elemente mit der Klasse “alert” aus
const alertElements = document.querySelectorAll(‘.alert’);
// Schleife durch alle Elemente und aktualisiere den Textinhalt
alertElements.forEach(alertElement ► {
let alertText = alertElement.textContent;
alertText = alertText.slice(0, -9);
alertElement.textContent = alertText;
});
</script>
But if you have more downloads then to be shown on the page, you have to change pages inside the download modul and then it is not working any more because the main page is not loading again.
And that is my big problem.
Best thing would be to get a configuration point where you can select if you want to have the time shown or not.
Greetings
Matthias
