    Hello @yukisaito ,

    Yes, we had a little bug in the migrator, made an update about 5 mins ago. The count after the update is correct. If you could import the exported CSV with the post meta and redo the sync with version 1.0.1 of the DLM – Migrate Download Counts plugin it will update to the true value. Or, if you don’t want to re-sync and you don’t have a lot of Downloads you could just update them. Truly sorry for the bug in the migrator.

    Warmly,
    Razvan

    Hi,
    I updated to 1.0.1 and synced, but when I update the page the number increases again.

    Hi,Updating to 1.0.2 solved the problem that the total number increased.
    However, the number of versions has decreased.

    Glad it worked. The version download count has decreased because we are synchronizing the download counts that were previously set ( by Download Monitor version < 4.6.0 ) in the post meta table of the Versions and Downloads with the download logs. So, before the sync you had as download counts the following number:
    total downloads = downloads from meta + downloads from logs

    So this up here is not the correct download count, as it increases the download count.

    Now, after the sync, the download count from meta is equal to the old download count from meta minus the download counts from the logs, like this:

    new download count from meta = old download count from meta - download count from logs

    This is done so that in the end you’ll have the download count for each Version ( file version ) and Download ( file ) that you had in Download Monitor prior 4.6.0.

    Also, we’ve re-added the functionality to modify the download counts by hand, now called Manual download count, which can be found in the Downloadable Files/Versions metabox in each Version, when you edit a Download ( https://imgur.com/a/YQIBh41 an example ).

    Does this make sens?

    Warmly,
    Razvan
