Versions:
Download Manager Version 3.2.32
WPDM – Extended Shortcodes 3.0.1
After running an upgrade to Download Manager to version 6.1.1, my version “reverted” to 3.2.32. It’s as though the free version updated and not the pro version?
Now in the Settings Dashboard the following links are missing:
– Social Settings
– Updates
– License
Can anyone help?
Thanks!

Actually, sorted that now!
Only thing I can’t seem to do now is to have the ‘Your download link is ready now:’ message text-align:right; – no styling seems to work for this?
Thanks
Ok, thanks.
Can the download image on the list of downloads link to the post too?
Ok thanks.
I have the thumbnail shortcode on the page template but it does not show on the download post?

Nayeem,
OK, this doesn’t meet my requirements. I don’t want to control access to a download, I just want to link directly to the download in a secure way.
Perhaps linking in this way is just not possible without having to manually craft the link?

Hello David,

Thank you and regards
Hello Rowan,
[download_link_extended]
template tag is working fine now. The problems were in WPForms settings, Firstly, Confirmation Type was redirecting to a page, so the download option was not coming properly. I have set it now as the image attached,

Second one was Captcha verification, maybe properly was not set, so it causes some proplem,

Please check now, download is working properly

Thank you and regards
Nayeem,
Can you send me an example of how the feature constructs the link? Does it just link to the download page or the download directly?

Nayeem,
Is that ‘Email Download Link’ a pro feature? It doesn’t appear on my installation with Download Manager v3.2.32.

Hello David,
For creating a link to a download package, you can check these options too as I image attached,

please check
Thank you and regards
Nayeem,
I’m sorry, I have been unclear. I am not looking to protect files, I am looking for a better solution to creating a link to a download package. Is there any chance we could meet? I don’t feel as if I am able to get my message across in text.
David.

Thanks.
Hi there,
I cannot find the download of v3.2.32 WPDM Extended Short-codes on the download directory on this website nor on the link above in this thread. Help!

Neyeem,
OK, I understand. This is not related to my query. Once again, you are focussing on the webpage, instead of the direct download link. I do not want my visitors to visit a web page, I want to provide a link that takes them directly to the download.
Take option 4 above. When the receiver clicks the link (e.g. from an email):
– If they are already logged into the website, the PDF download opens in the browser.
– If they are NOT already logged into the website, they are taken to the login page and after they login, the PDF download opens in the browser.
At no point does the receiver visit a web page (except the login page).
Does that now make sense?
The issue I am finding is that I have to hand-craft that URL for every single download. I am trying to find a better solution.
If this is still not understood, could we get on a shared-screen somehow?
David.
Hello David,
I want to clarify your claim point no: 2,
Use the package download link e.g. <website>/download/<package_title>/?wpdmdl=<package_id>. Secure but if user not already logged in, results in permission-denied.txt
please check from the logout browser or incognito mode browser, you shall find the login option as I image attached,

and please also use the Email Lock option, thus all features will work properly. please check and let me know
Thank you and regards
Hello Tanvir,
Thanks for your help but I need your help still.
How can I use a button template and add my custom download link text.
Also for the initial template I created, how can I list the files that shows to just the newest files and limit it to just 14 files.
Right now it is showing all the files in the file directory, but I need it limited to 14.
Thank You
Nayeem,
Could you help me to understand the relevance of that button/feature to creating a link to a download package? Does that button create a link?
David.
Hi,
Hello I am attaching an image where I have circled in red what I would like to remove.
I have entered the download search form with the brand and the filters, I would like to change or not show the filters of date, title, etc.
I hope I was clear

Hello @brother-bell,
Greetings and Welcome.
Your license should be transferable and yes the procedure mentioned in the 2nd link is applicable for the 2021 version.
Simply just follow the steps properly mentioned in the below link and I hope you will be able to transfer the license easily.

If you still facing any problem then let us know about it and we will assist you properly.

Happy Holidays WPDM Team,
I’m writing to gain confirmation on the correct process to migrate / transfer my Pro license to a new domain. My current site and business effort is closing down and I’m going to restart a new effort. What is the process to request key-license transfer or the How-To guide on doing it myself?
The links below mention transfer of licenses. In one, it is the customer support team who does it. In the other it tries to show how-to steps but unsure if it applies in 2021 version. Also I’m uncertain whether my license is transferable in the first place. Assistance is welcome.

Hello David,
If you want to work with package shortcode, you can make a workaround with link-template, you can make link-template with the below code for download,
<a href="[download_url]" class="btn btn-primary" target=_blank>[link_label]</a>
Thus it will work for restricted role subscriber only, please let me know if it helps you
Thank you and regards
Nayeem,
Thank you for your response. Respectfully, you’ve missed an important aspect of my query: “I don’t want to link to a page, I want to link directly to the download”. In order to see the image above, the visitor would have first needed to browse to the package page. This works fine but doesn’t meet my requirements.
Make sense?
