 * I used a simple link showing a image for my downloads, but its not working in
   the new updates.
    My old shortcodes was= [wpdm_hotlink id=’0001′ link_label='
   <img src=”/wp-content/plugins/download-manager/file-type-icons/arrow_down.png”
   alt=”” />’]
 * but when I change is to=
    [wpdm_direct_link id=’27956′ link_label='<img src=”/
   wp-content/plugins/download-manager/file-type-icons/arrow_down.png” alt=”” />’]
   its only listing the file name as “Download File_0001” and not showing the image
   mentioned in the filter link_lable.
 * So How can I convert it to be able to work on the new updated plugin
