Download Monitor Ninja Forms Lock 5.0.1
Download Monitor Ninja Forms Lock gates downloads by attaching a Ninja Forms form to each item. Users access only after completing the form, enabling lead capture and secure access. This lightweight WordPress plugin uses a simple shortcode to place the form anywhere and exports entries as CSV for easy follow-up.
Description
The Download Monitor Ninja Forms Lock is a WordPress plugin that gates digital downloads using Ninja Forms. Instead of making files freely accessible, it lets you require visitors to complete a specific Ninja Forms form before the download can be accessed.
It solves the common need to control access to resources like PDFs, templates, or member-only files while capturing the information you need for follow-up. With a lightweight setup and a shortcode, you can place the form on your download pages using your existing theme or page builder workflow (including Elementor layouts).
Submitted responses are saved in Ninja Forms and can be exported to CSV for easy review and outreach.
