  • Did the trick :)

    Did exactly what it said it does, no complications. As someone else said, this is something that should be WP core, but thank goodness for this plugin.

  • Excellent Plugin

    Simply superb. Very easy and practical way to download media files. This should have been an inbuilt feature by wordpress. Thanks for the plugin

  • The best of its kind!

    This plugin simply does its job. What it says. Big respect and admiration to the developer. In other similar plugins, such functionality is shoved into the premium version. Thanks, dear! You helped me out! And the low rating is from those who did not understand what the essence of this plugin is. It works and works perfectly!

  • Does what promises

    I love plugins that really do what they promise. However you could give better instructions and use the word "Download" which is more familiar to most people. Five stars though, because it is a very useful and well working plugin.
