## Description

Let’s make sure that these are the starting conditions:

 1. You have developed your own WordPress plugin or theme and you host it at [WordPress.org](https://wordpress.org/extend/)
 2. You have your own WordPress blog and in there you use either [WP-DownloadManager](https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-downloadmanager/)
    plugin or [WordPress Download Monitor](https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/download-monitor/)
    plugin
 3. You list your own plug-in or theme in one of the download managers mentioned in
    point 2 and it links to URL at WordPress.org

OK, these are the conditions. All is fine, everything works, visitors of your web
can click on the download link and they are served the file from wordpress.org and
your download manager counts the hits on the files. But maybe you would like it 
not to show only the hits that people do on your own blog, but all the hits that
your plugin or theme gets, including the ones when people find the download directly
on WordPress.org site, not just through your blog.

This plugin solves it. It runs in the background, it checks if you are using one
of the supported download managers, it goes through the downloads registered, and
if it finds a download that has URL pointing to plugins or themes at WordPress.org,
it will automatically update the hits from there to your download manager.

All is done automatically in the background. The functionality is run in the background
by WordPress built-in cron. The plugin has no configuration. If you don’t have any
download manager installed or you do not list any download pointing to plugin or
theme at WordPress.org, this plugin will simply “do nothing”, but it will not damage
your site.

## Installation

English:

 1. Well, you should have either [WP-DownloadManager](https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-downloadmanager/)
    or [WordPress Download Monitor](https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/download-monitor/)
    running in your WordPress installation and you should list at least one WordPress.
    org hosted plugin or theme in your downloads. My plugin dm4extensions will not 
    hurt your WP site if this is not true, but it would just not do anything in such
    case.
 2. Upload the full plugin directory into your wp-content/plugins directory.
 3. Activate the plugin in plugins administration.
 4. That’s it, the plugin runs automatically in the background via cron. There is no
    configuration of the plugin.
