[Plugin: WordPress Download Monitor] Download Monitor providing incorrect file paths (2 posts)

    I added all of my downloads myself to my website via FTP, and the used the Folder Explorer within the Plugin to select them as the downloads. So for example the download will be at /var/www/PortfolioContent/blah.zip

    These worked great for a while, but all of a sudden the downloads are returning the incorrect path to the file. For example:

    This is the correct file path for my CV:
    http://www.adam-goodchild.co.uk/PortfolioContent/CV/AdamGoodchildCV.pdf

    But the download monitor returns the incorrect file path for a zip:
    http://www.adam-goodchild.co.ukportfoliocontent/Projects/MinimizeEngine/MinimizeEngineSamples/Sample%205%20-%20Scene%20Graph.zip

    You can see that the Plugin is editing the file path after the root of the server. It should be this: /PortfolioContent/ not this : portfoliocontent/

    Now I have just left the website, and I am not sure why this has occured! Any suggestions?

    Paths like that need 'force download' enabled - Im working on the next version and will ensure 'force download' is forced if it’s not a url.
