## Description
With this plugin, you can gather statistics on clicks for file downloads or any
other link across the site.
To insert a file download block, use the `[download url="any file URL"]` shortcode.
The plugin does not include additional tools for uploading files. All files must
be uploaded using the standard WordPress media uploader. The URLs are then used
to create the download block.
Additionally, the plugin includes:
* A button in the visual editor for quickly inserting the file download block shortcode.
* A customizable widget that allows you to display a list of “Top Downloads” or“
Top Link Clicks.”

## FAQ
### How can I customize the download block with CSS?
You can customize CSS styles on the plugin options page. Alternatively, you can
add CSS styles to the `style.css` file of your theme.

### [Отличный плагин!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/%d0%be%d1%82%d0%bb%d0%b8%d1%87%d0%bd%d1%8b%d0%b9-%d0%bf%d0%bb%d0%b0%d0%b3%d0%b8%d0%bd-834/)

Использую этот плагин для своего проекта. Все красиво, все наглядно. Есть пожелания
сделать возможность вставлять файлы/ссылки не во всю строку по ширине, а допустим
фиксированного размера (200 х 200 px.) или размеры указать в процентах. Это нужно
для того, чтобы я в ряд мог разместить 3 файла для скачивания или сделать обтекание
текстом. Пока не понятно как измерить размер и цвет шрифта на кнопках для скачивания
файлов. В целом плагин очень хороший! Большое спасибо разработчикам! I use this
plugin for my project. Everything is beautiful, everything is clear. There are wishes
to make it possible to insert files / links not in the entire line in width, but
let's say a fixed size (200 x 200 px.) Or specify the dimensions as a percentage.
This is necessary so that I can place 3 files in a row for download or make text
wrapping. It is not yet clear how to measure the size and color of the font on the
buttons for downloading files. In general, the plugin is very good! Many thanks
to the developers!
### [incoming foreign link](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/thumbs-up-167/)

There is a foreign link that enters the list of download addresses, you must update
it immediately.

### [Doesn't count all clicks in the tracked links](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/doesnt-count-all-clicks-in-the-tracked-links/)

It just count the clicks done with the left-click mouse button. Doesn’t count clicks
done with the mouse wheel, which opens in new tab. Also doesn’t count clicks from
mobile browsers. Tested with iPhone and Android. I think it’s not hard to track
all clicks with an onclick event, using jQuery perhaps. In any case Kama Click Counter
is good for a start, just needs improvement. Good work!
### [Это очень крутой плагин](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/%d0%ad%d1%82%d0%be-%d0%be%d1%87%d0%b5%d0%bd%d1%8c-%d0%ba%d1%80%d1%83%d1%82%d0%be%d0%b9-%d0%bf%d0%bb%d0%b0%d0%b3%d0%b8%d0%bd/)
