Honzo, do we use some detection of recurring downloading? And how hard would it be to change "Downloads" sort to "Downloads (last 3 months)"? Hello, this metric is just very simple stupid counter which increments every time the download button at the plugin is clicked. There is no robot protection, no history. To prevent robots it would be pretty hard (usually bot is cloacked behind the common User-Agent, does not rush on hits etc). To keep history of downloads it would be possible. |
