 * hi there, great plugin and working well. one issue i have. the woocommerce ‘reporting’
   doesn’t work for free products now. i guess that only ‘counts’ where things have
   gone through the checkout process?? is this something you’re aware of? is there
   a fix or workaround for this? would be good to somehow be able to count downloads
   for ‘download now’/freebie items.
    many thanks

 * Hi mate this is a consequence of not going through the checkout, no orders are
   actually created.
 * I’m planning on releasing a premium version that includes the ability to track
   free downloads, but it won’t be using the WooCommerce orders, but that’s a way
   off yet.

 * I can include a count on the product page with a running total, but the full 
   breakdown system I have in mind will have to wait for the premium.

 * wow – thanks for the speedy update! i’ve updated to 2.1 but for some reason i’m
   not seeing the download count anywhere. when you say ‘the product page’ do you
   mean front-end or back-end? thb i’d rather see this stat on the back-end product
   listing page rather than front-end page product detail page.
    many thanks

 * It’s on the product page in the back end, right hand side 🙂

 * ah got it. fantastic, thanks 🙂
 * (no rush at all but how tough would it be to display the counts on the product
   listing page?
    i.e. /wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=product this would properly 
   cover things off from my perspective on this)

 * I’m just smashing it mate 😎
 * Implemented the screenshot above, fully working, and it can be sorted like other
   columns as well. Expect an update in approx 5 hours.
