   This plugin is exactly what I needed!

   One caveat--the "Add New Download" screen was wayyyy too complicated for my clients to use. The fix? Remove the extra bits with a bit of jQuery. Add the following to your theme's functions.php:

   /**
    * Remove extra confusing bits from "Add Download" screen
    */
   add_action('downloads_page_dlm_addnew', 'remove_add_download_cruft');
   function remove_add_download_cruft() {
   	if(!current_user_can('manage_options')) { ?>
   		<script type="text/javascript">
   			jQuery.noConflict();
   			(function($) {
   				$(function() {
   					$('input#dlversion, input#dlhits, textarea[name=mirrors], input[name=thumbnail_upload], input[name=memberonly], input[name=forcedownload]').parents('tr').hide();
   
   					$('table.optiontable + h3').hide();
   					$('code').parents('p').hide();
   					$('tbody#customfield_list').parents('table').hide();
   				});
   			})(jQuery);
   
   		</script>
   	<?php }
   }

   This will remove everything but the basic options, which is exactly what my clients needed. Note: this will remove those options only for non-admins. If you want to remove it for admins also, remove the if(!current_user_can('manage_options')) line and it's accompanying braces.

   Thanks, this works but it only works for the add new download page. How can i do this for the edit download page as well?

   Hmm... That's a good question. If you can figure out the admin "slug" for that page, you can add another action calling the same function:

   `add_action('downloads_page_dlm_edit', 'remove_add_download_cruft');

   I'm pretty sure the slug is:
   dlm_config

   looking at the download_monitor.php file.

   How do you add a second action?

   I've tried putting a second line underneath the add_action that says:
   add_action('downloads_page_dlm_config', 'remove_add_download_cruft');

   But that's not worked.

   That would be the correct way to do it--so if it's not working, then the slug is probably wrong.

   wp_dlm_admin is definitely the slug but it's not working.
