    First off, I am very much a novice, and do not know a lot about coding. With that, that might explain my confusion or wish, but I thought I would submit a question incase I am missing something.

    I do residential architecture and upload my plans for clients to my website so that a contractor or the client can download and view them as we make progress. When I am creating a new file/package, I have to give it a “title.” I can then go through, create a link title, password, an icon for it, etc. Where I struggle is when it comes time to place said package on the page. Sometimes I need to replace an existing file, and if I don’t know the package id #, I can screw up what file I am replacing. Is there an easy way to replace this… “wpdm_package id=1411 templ…..” with say something like “Smith Residence”?

    When I go to insert the file, it will show me all the files with the Title being displayed, but once it is inserted on the page, you get “wpdm_package id=1411 templ…”

    Hopefully this makes sense and I am either missing something, have not turned something on, checked a box, etc.

    I look forward to the help, and I apologize if this has been covered. I received over 30,000 topics when I tried to search

    Probably you can do this in following way:

    • I guess, for every project, you will need to show multiple files to your client
    • Create a category for each project
    • Create your fist file entry from Admin Menu >> Downloads >> Add New and assign to proper project ( category )
    • Now enter category shortcode in any page where you need to, category shortcode uses category slug, which will be easier to understand later when you need to add/edit file to that project

    Please let me know if you have any other question.
