Description
Download Manager Pro extends Download Manager with multi-file packages, per-download bandwidth control, multiple passwords, and detailed statistics for each file hosted on WordPress. The extension also adds customizable templates for the download listing, custom URLs for each item, and front-end file management, giving editors a complete console for organizing and distributing digital content without relying exclusively on the WordPress admin panel.
Key Features
- Multi-file packages: group several files into a single download item, with individual information for each file inside the package.
- Multiple password protection: generates distinct passwords for the same file, useful for distributing individualized access to clients or students.
- Download statistics: logs the count, origin, and history of each download, allowing you to measure the performance of each published item.
- Bandwidth control and custom URLs: limits consumption per file or user and creates friendly links for each item.
- Front-end manager and customizable templates: allows uploads via DropZone outside the admin and adjusts the layout of download listings to match the site’s identity.
Benefits of Download Manager Pro
- Controlled distribution: regulates who downloads, how many times, and at what speed, preventing abusive bandwidth consumption.
- Monetization and restriction: combines passwords, locks, and access requirements to sell or release files only to authorized audiences.
- Analytical view: shows which materials generate the most traffic and which need review, based on real download data.
- Editorial autonomy: the front-end interface and sidebar widgets reduce dependence on the admin panel to publish and list files.
Who Is It For?
- Creators who sell digital products such as ebooks, spreadsheets, workbooks, and templates.
- Membership sites and educational portals that deliver materials by access level.
- Agencies and studios that need to make project deliverables available with bandwidth control and password protection.
Suited for those who treat WordPress as a file distribution hub, Download Manager Pro brings together packaging, restriction, metrics, and visual customization in a single workflow. Sites with an extensive catalog of materials gain governance over who accesses what, with enough usage data to review permissions, adjust templates, and size hosting infrastructure according to actual download volume.

What changed in this version
Version 7.4.0
- Security fix: unauthenticated SQL injection patched
- Security release — version 7.4.0. All users are strongly advised to update immediately.
- Fixed an unauthenticated blind SQL injection vulnerability (CWE-89). The internal temporary-storage lookup interpolated a request-derived key directly into a database query; sanitize_text_field does not escape SQL quotes, so several unauthenticated entry points (including the media download handler via __mediakey ) could be abused for time-based blind injection.
- The query is now fully parameterized with $wpdb->prepare , closing the injection for every caller of the storage layer.

Version 7.3.9
- Public profile redesign and async [wpdm_packages] toolbar
- Redesigned the wpdm_user_profile page with a modern cover/avatar layout, stat pills (packages, favourites, member since), and pill-style tabs that highlight in the user’s brand color.
- Added async re-rendering for the wpdm_packages shortcode toolbar so filter / sort / paginate updates the results in place without a full page reload.
- Per-file download flow now respects the terms-and-conditions lock and correctly carries the file index through the unlock cycle.
- Added a per-file Size override field in the file-info metabox for granular control over displayed file sizes.
- Gated the wpdmpro custom-post-type capability and parent admin menu behind WPDM_MENU_ACCESS_CAP when set to manage_options .
- Pre-fill the File Size input from Media Library attachments (uses filesizeHumanReadable ).
- Escaped reset URLs on the download-history filter chips.
- Switched the .__wpdm_submit_async submit handler to delegated binding so AJAX-injected forms keep working after replacement.
- Proper output escaping on the public profile partials and dark-mode support (manual + prefers-color-scheme ).

Version 7.3.8
- File List Fix
- Resolved an issue affecting the file list on the admin site.
- May 3, 2026
Version 7.3.7
- DropZone file-request page redesign and sanitize_var fix
- Redesigned the DropZone file-request page as an enterprise-grade upload UI — two-column layout with a sticky sidebar (request meta + best-practices tips), a table-style file queue with per-row progress, sticky action bar with summary and Submit / Clear, dedicated success state, mobile responsive
- Synced the DropZone main page with WPDM Color Scheme settings
- Both DropZone views now pull the primary color from WPDM UI Settings
- Fixed WPDM\__\__::sanitize_var emitting a PHP warning — “Delimiter must not be alphanumeric or backslash” — when an unknown sanitize value (e.g. 'array' ) reached the regex fallback. Added an isRegexPattern guard so non-pattern values are returned unchanged
- April 21, 2026
Version 7.3.6
- Dark mode for User Dashboard, tag filter for package tables, and DropZone fixes
- Added dark mode support for User Dashboard (manual dark mode and system preference)
