Hi Shaon,
Email sent to support. You can see for yourself at http://www.ondernemersrealiteit.be/downloads/
I’ve activated email, linkedin, tweet and facebook lock on both downloads. Facebook doens’t work.
Grtz,
Yves
use download button only only when you are using public downloads, if you have mixed downloads, in page and link template use your expected image like this:
[download_link image-url]
little confused as update should not affect previous settings, send a temporary wp-admin login info to support@wpdownloadmanager.com to check
Downloaded the free Download Button Add-On and selected one of the options and clicked Save Settings. When I go to the download page, the orange default icon still remains and ‘ /> is hyperlinked to the right of the image (see attachment).
In the page template I’m using, I have taken out the link to the iconfinder icon and just left the shortcode as [download_link].
The code tag didn’t work right for me to attach the code so I am attaching screen shots instead.
Also, do I need to wrap the gallery shortcode in a div to get it to work? Nothing shows – have 3 extra pictures.
Thanks!
Hi,
There are a number of posts about the email lock not working.
The reason why I purchased download manager was to get round the issue of having to send out an email with a link to download a file – I was doing this for free with Wysija!
Is it possible when a valid name and email address has been be entered to allow the user to download the file immediately without going through the cycle of having to send out an email with a link?
Paul.
I have installed the free version and am not opposed to purchase the pro version but so far i haven’t been able to create a download link and have search for a manual on how to use this plug in but can’t seem to find anything. Could somebody point me in the right direction please ?
I am having the same issue. I uploaded the files via FTP to my server and created a download link by using the add file from server function. It looks great but the files get corrupted through the manager. I downloaded my files directly off the server, without the download manager and it worked fine.

Hi, I have had a couple of files on download manager for awhile and they work great.
I just added a new today and when I downloaded it I got an error the the file is damaged and cannot be repaired. Here’s the link:
http://annemckinnell.com/the-compelling-photograph-sample/
But if I go to the URL directly to download it, it downloads with no error. Same file. Here’s the link:
http://annemckinnell.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/ebooks/the_compelling_photograph_sample.pdf
Just a couple of notes (not sure if they matter):
– the files that are already in download manager that work are larger files (ruled out file size)
– I tried both adding the file from my computer and adding the file from the server
– I am using a mac, but the download error also happens on pc.
– I can open the file on my mac fine. I upload via ftp, add it to download manager, download and get error.
Thank you very much for your help!!
Anne.
I did, the version I have now is 3.3.5 and that’s when all problems started. Missing icons, slow download speed, cannot edit anything.
Did not have a single problem since the day one until upgrade. Replace all files via ftp, disable/enable the plugin. I even deleted the folder and started all over again and still have the same problem. I personally think it’s something with the database, but cannot start fresh because I have too many links to Amazon S3. Will take me months to add them all over again.
Have you had a chance to look at the link?
yes, you just need to create an link template with following code:
[download_link]
but if you want to use a image there use like this:
[download_link image-url-here]
then select the link template for your packages

I’ve created a page on my site which contains the shortcode [wpdm_category id=ict item_per_page=10] where ‘ict’ is the category name. It returns all the downloads with that category. The download links under each name work, but when I click on the actual file name it returns an empty page, rather than a details page showing the large thumb, download description, etc. What am I doing wrong? I’m really confused! 🙁
The url in the address page shows ‘?download=space-shuttle-poster’ after my domain name (space shuttle poster is a test PDF download file).
1) you can batch upload all files using bulk import feature, but that will create separate pacakge for each file
2) you can attach multiple files with same package and you can download individual file from a package. but you need to enable individual download, no need to create individual package for each file ( Example: http://demo.wpdownloadmanager.com/wpdmpro/file-download/free-web-designer-iconset/?wpdm_page_template=page-template-1col-ex.php )
3) wpdm pro has many short-codes, even for listing all packages in a table or selected categories, check here http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/docs/list-of-download-manager-pro-short-codes/
4) In pro, templating is very extended and what will show or not , in the template will totally depend on template tags you will use with a link or page template, here is details: http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/docs/integrated-templates/
I have the same problem – looking for a solution. I have just set up DMPro and can’t get the email lock to work at all. Did this thread have a solution?
in that case you can use our premium package add-on with wpdm pro, this site ( http://www.wpdownloadmanager.com/ ) is managing with those 2 plugins ( wpdm pro + premium package add-on ). For premium packages, download links only generate for clients who purchased it, same link will not work for others.
Essentially, I want a time limited download. Like this…
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3725160/how-to-give-time-limited-download-link
Can this plugin do this?
new link template with icon added in latest version 3.3.5.rc2.
yes, you can use [link_label] too

I have upgraded to the most recent version, and when I click on the package name I get a page not found error. When I go to the package edit page and try accessing it via the URL or via the View Package button, I get the same error. I have tried disabling and re-enabling permalinks and still have the same issue. The download link works fine, but I need the package page to work so that users can get more information about the package. Help! An example URL where this is happening is http://www.growgreened.com/agritourism/ Click on the package title to see what I mean.
Hi Shaon,
It would be great to have feature that can allow us (and other customers) to configure request the download feature. Customer can request the download and if we approve that, after approving he will get a message on his mail with the link.
We need this feature because we have different customers. Some customers must have a possibility to download some resources, others – no. The new customers register every day, so we can’t use Individual File Download feature for that.
Thanks in advance!
Hi
Can anyone tell me where/how to change the css for the display of categories? I had this all fine and then upgraded and now get the default black bar etc at the top of each category.
I have a page where I want to display all downloads in certain categories using the shortcode link this:
[wpdm_category id=enrolments]
Would appreciate any help!
Thank you,
Shaon
Sorry I have another question on this topic.
Can we have a code for for link label?
So we can build are templates like this
[link_label]
Thank you for your time
1) Download links were not appearing at all as selected page template didn’t have [download_link] tag, i changed it and showing ok now.
2) Create new link template using following code:
<div class="media">
<div class="media-body">
<h4 class="media-heading" style="padding-top: 0px;border:0px;margin: 0px;">[title]</h4>
[download_link] <i style="margin: 2px 0 0 5px;opacity:0.5" class="icon icon-th-large"></i> [file_size] <i style="margin: 2px 0 0 5px;opacity:0.5" class="icon icon-download-alt"></i> [download_count] downloads
</div>
</div>
select the template from edit package window.
I have sent you an e-mail to support@
As for my other post I am still getting a problem if I activate Calendarize It, The Other Plugins have been replaced with ones that seem to not be affected as to where Downloads sits on the Dashboard, but if you activate Calendarize It you will see that it will not appear, until Download Manager Pro is deactivated…
But more importantly I would like to know why:
1. The Download Links do not appear at all.
2. Why does it take me to a second page, which I do not want, I just want someone to select the link that they want and then be able to download it without this second page appearing!
