On top of the download issue, many files over 2 mb are no longer supported. Half the files on my website won’t even display.
Thank you! I actually figured out how to disable downloads using the settings, but now I am having the same issue as bvance43. Carmel399, thank you for the suggestion, but I need to be able to upload more than just pdfs. Has anyone found a solution? Or is there another plugin someone could suggest?
