Hello
I wanted to have the folder with the pdf files in root but I realized that the server does not allow it for security problems.
It does not matter.
I have a problem with setting the file download folder, with the latest version if I set the path: /wp-content/uploads/download-manager-files
in asset manager it does not upload files, it gets stuck!
If I create inside thid directory (download-manager-files) a folders and upload a file inside, this file is copied to download-manager-files and not to the folder I created.
In another site of my client who has an old version this works.
