Hi, I need to put a direct download link for each file into my own custom button.

You can do it manually in this way:

<a href="//your-site-url/?wpdmdl=[ADD_FILE_ID]">[your custom button image or text]</a>

Or, use short-code:

[wpdm_package id="[ID]" template="link-template-button.php"]

And use the following add-on to add your custom button image:

Why it is not presented into documentation?

Is there a way to create a direct download hyperlink for another site with the pro version?

@bzingler, no shortcode for that, but you can use HTML as @shahriar mentioned:

<a href="//your-site-url/?wpdmdl=[ADD_FILE_ID]">[your custom button image or text]</a>

Hi, this is useful, but I want to use this idea in a Toolset View Loop to give a direct download link, so the ID is a variable. What field do I need to use (e.g. wpv-post-url) please?
