When outputting download links, Download Monitor uses special templates to control the appearance of links. For example, content-download.php contains the following:
<a class="download-link" title="<?php if ( $dlm_download->get_version()->has_version_number() ) {
printf( __( 'Version %s', 'download-monitor' ), $dlm_download->get_version()->get_the_version_number() );
} ?>" href="<?php $dlm_download->the_download_link(); ?>" rel="nofollow">
<?php $dlm_download->the_title(); ?>
(<?php printf( _n( '1 download', '%d downloads', $dlm_download->get_download_count(), 'download-monitor' ), $dlm_download->get_download_count() ) ?>)
</a>This outputs a download link containing the title and download count. To use this specific template you would add template=”download” to your shortcode attributes. For example:
[download id="10" template="download"]Download Monitor also includes the following templates for use by default:
