Hi there,
I have used this plugin successfully before, but it now causes a fatal error on activation.
Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 30720 bytes) in ../sitedetails-go-here/wp-admin/includes/deprecated.php on line 121

It's not a plugin-specific error. Try increasing the memory available to PHP:

Hi Esmi,
You are very active in these forums! Thank you.
I do wonder however why so much memory is needed? I already have several plugins installed, including plugins such as Gravity Forms and have not run into this issue before.
Regardless, thank you for the link, I will check it out!
The amount of memory that a given WP installation needs depends not only on how many plugins are installed but what they do. The theme used is also a factor. In theory, you can run WP with only 32M of memory available but in practice, 64M or above would be better.

I just had a look at that link. I have already increased my memory allowance on my site in order to allow for larger file uploads from the media library. I have set my limit to 16MB via both the wp-config file as well as the PHP configuration. I am not sure it is necessary for me at this stage to upgrade it more.
I will try Download Monitor on a local site and see how it runs. Thanks for the info Esmi.
