Hi there Shaon,

My site seems to be getting 404 errors from the created download files, the pages seem to have /feed/ after the download link which doesn’t link to anything creating a 404 error, is this an issue that can possibly be resolved with the plugin?

Please see one of the full links Google Webmaster Tools is reporting with a 404 error: https://www.readysteadygymnastics.co.uk/download/accidents-first-aid-policy-march-2017/feed/

If I take /feed/ off the end it goes through to the page for the specific download and works correctly.

If anyone else knows how to resolve this issue, your comments are very much appreciated, thanks for your help in advance.

Ok now. Enabled archive for wpdm:

update_option("__wpdm_has_archive", 1);
update_option("__wpdm_archive_page_slug", "all-downloads");

@timotime, solution is mentioned at #57504

Please add those 2 lines of code at the end of your active theme’s functions.php, visit the homepage for one, then removed those code, that will solve it, however, we are adding those 2 options at wpdm admin settings with the next update of the plugin.
