Hi, I would like to get URL for direct link to original file in media folder.
And, I would like to insert this information to Page Templete.

I have checked following infromation, but they are not what I wanted.

[wpdm_direct_link] – Embed direct download link as a simple text link

How to make a direct link to a downloadable file in the Download Manager plugin

I would like to have URL like this:
https://domain.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/xxx.pdf

Thanks,

Hello, Noboru

I hope you are doing well and thanks for reaching out.

To retrieve the download URL or link in your page template, use the tag [download_url] for the URL and [download_link] for the link. Please review this and confirm if it meets your needs.

Regards

Hi, Tahasin,

Thanks, but this is not what I wanted. I know this function, but what I really need is the function to answer the original file URL from Media folder.
The function will provide a link like “https://domain.com/download/titile/# ”
What I need is a link like “https://domain.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/xxx.pdf “, which shows where the file is.

Thanks,

@Tahasin

unfortunately, the only way to incorporate the direct link into the page template is manually, by copying the file path from the media.
