Perfect for presenting downloads on WordPress site

I have tried many Download plugins but this one makes offering downloads in WP very easy. From all the ones I tested, I prefer using Delightful Downloads. For me the perfect solution and definitely a 5 Star rating worth.

+ Very good Documentation at
+ Lots of shortcodes
+ Button within post/page editing to add downloads
– missing Log Datatable as mentioned below – can be solved easy

At first the log function did not work under 4.2. After I did a little research, I found that the corresponding table wp_ddownload_statistics was not created. Since I’m using All in one WP Security and changed the table prefix from wp_ to something else, before I installed the plugin, this could have been the problem (not completely shure).

So the solution was quite easy. Looking into the plugin file class-dedo-statistics.php at line 389 the SQL Statement can be found to create the table manually by using phpMyAdmin. That was it and the logs work fine.

Here’s the SQL for those who have the same problem:

CREATE TABLE test_ddownload_statistics (
ID bigint(20) unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
status varchar(10) NOT NULL DEFAULT 'success',
date datetime NOT NULL,
post_id bigint(20) unsigned NOT NULL,
user_id bigint(20) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT '0',
user_ip varbinary(16) NOT NULL,
user_agent varchar(255) NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (ID))
