I just recently updated to the latest version. After this update, when I insert a direct download of Dropbox when creating a new download, chrome shows a message “invalid Url”. I was using this functionality without any issue in the previous version but after this update it shows invalid url every time I paste the dropbox direct download link. Please let me know what’s the issue. Thank you.
An example of the Url I am using: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com

Thanks for your reply! I didn’t configure anything! I was just using the option “Insert URL” when adding a new download and I was just pasting the direct download link in that box and it was working fine.
Hi,
I have tested it in our testing server by simply pasting the download link using the Insert URL and it’s working fine.
Please check here: https://wpdm.durnibar.com/download/insert-url/
Can you please try after reading the download link?

Hi,
Thanks so much for taking your time to reply 🙂 What I do is that I replace this part of Dropbox URL “www.dropbox.com” with this one “dl.dropboxusercontent.com”, it allows browser to fetch file directly without opening the Dropbox website.
I have been using this method in Download Manger for the last 8 months and the URL was always added without any issue. But now in the updated version, when I paste the modified URL with “dl.dropboxusercontent.com”, Download Manager says invalid URL. This is the issue. Thank you again for your time.
Hello,
Thank you for your response.
Well, we didn’t make any changes in the latest version.
Actually, it’s completely related to Dropbox API and we don’t have any control over that.

The dropbox links still work on their own. It is only when they go through download manager that they stop working.
Dear @kali
I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to express my gratitude for your prompt response.
Regarding the matter at hand, it’s important to clarify that within the context of WPDM (WordPress Download Manager), the system does not exert control over the download process when interfacing with cloud or remote storage services, such as Dropbox.
I trust that this information helps shed light on the situation. Should you have any further inquiries or require additional assistance, please do not hesitate to reach out. Your satisfaction and understanding are of paramount importance to us.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Warm regards,
