 * Hi,
 * I like your plugin so far. I have a question regarding download IDs. I am trying
   to create a carousel for downloads, and have been able to do it successfully.
   What I am trying to do is display each download’s post_content, but unfortunately
   I am unable to do it with the shortcode in the documentation because it requires
   the download ID. Is there a way output the post_content some way, or get it by
   code, for example, $dlm_download->download_ID?
 * Let me know, thank you.

 * Hey,
 * If you have the `$dlm_download` object, you can call `$dlm_download->get_description()`
   too get the description. Don’t forget to add `echo` if you want to output it 
   to the screen.
 * Kind Regards,
