How it Works

When using the [download] or [downloads] shortcodes, the non-member will see a link to the membership levels page and a list of the levels that are required to download the file.

The add on also includes the unique templates: “pmpro”, “pmpro_box”, “pmpro_button”, “pmpro_filename”, “pmpro_title” to show the non-member a link to the membership levels page and a list of the levels that are required to download the file.

Direct links to a file download will be redirected to your “No Access” page, which will show the message for non-members as defined in your Memberships > Advanced Settings admin page.

How to Use

1. After activation, navigate to “Downloads” to Edit or Add a New Download.
2. Check the box for each level that can access this download in the “Require Membership” meta box (below the Publish box in the right sidebar).
3. Save your changes by clicking the “Update” button (or “Publish” if you are creating a new download).

When using the [download] shortcode you can optionally specify a “pmpro” template. Available templates include: “pmpro”, “pmpro_box”, “pmpro_button”, “pmpro_filename”, “pmpro_title”.

[download template="pmpro_button"]

If you do not specify a template, the output of the [download] shortcode can be filtered for a non-member by using the filter pmprodlm_shortcode_download_content_filter. This will alter the message shown to a visitor that is not logged in or a logged in user that doesn’t meet membership requirements.
