    Hello,

    We have created the custom area with the free plugin.

    In this custom area we have a software download button.

    We would like to know who downloads the software and keep a count of those software downloads.

    Do you have any Add-on that allows you to track downloads?

    Thank you

    Hello,

    You should actually be able to check downloaded-files’ events from WP-Admin > Private Area > Logs.

    Also, the Notifications add-on can send emails about such events to site administrators, author, or recipients.

    We don’t have a way out-of-the-box to display download counts. Best way would be to hook into our functions and edit our templates (basically, add a post_meta to store the file’s download count, and display that on your button). This can vary depending on what you really want to do.

    Best regards.
