Open in new tab (download-manager plugin)

By default, downloads are working on the same page, for open downloads in a new tab, it is required a little bit of customization on the code, please let me know how can I further help you.

Thanks

You can go to Plugins > Plugin Editor > select 'Download Manager' > tpls > page-templates or link-templates. Now, check which page-templates or link-templates you are using. Open that file and replace [download_link] with <a href="[download_url]" class="btn btn-primary" target="_blank">[link_label]</a>.

Thanks

Hi @stuckathomemom
Hope you are well.
Please follow this screencast I just made for you in order to open a dropbox file into a new tab.
Let me know if you need further assistance regarding this matter.
Best Regards

@sohrat
Thank you that works (until the plugin updates lol )

Thank you for the video.

Question, what tells WordPress to use the templates in the child-theme? Doesn’t there need to be some kind of code in the child-theme that says ‘hey, use these templates instead of the templates in the original plugin.’

Thanks.

Hi @stuckathomemom,
You are welcome.
You do not need extra codes in the child theme.
Please follow this link for the template override procedure.
All template tags will be found here as well.
Thanks.
