 * Hello
 * I see you have an update to your plugin but I am worried about updating the plugin
   as I have made some hacks to the core files. However I know with woo commerce
   it is possible to copy the template folder into the child theme and rename it‘
   woocommerce’ and one can safely make edits/hacks in there as described here…

 * Is it possible to do some like this for download monitor?
 * Many thanks
