 * Hi misanthrop,
 * Hope you’ve been well!
    The plugin has worked perfectly for us in the recent 
   past. Now, we have a small challenge that we hope you will be able to help us
   with if you have a moment. We’ve uploaded a single sound file for which we have
   generated just one single download code that we would like to use multiple times
   to download the same file. Unfortunately, even though we have indicated that 
   you can use the download code 5000 times to download the file, the system tells
   us that the maximum number of downloads has been reached after using the code
   just once. I’m not sure why this is the case. Maybe you can help?
 * We are still using version 2.3.0 of the plugin and wonder if it were possible
   to keep using this version and solve the issue? We are a bit afraid that maybe
   our current download codes for our other files could get affected if we updated
   the plugin?
 * Thanks so much in advance!
 * Kind regards,
    Katharina

 * I can’t find a hint in the code for version 2.3.0. Do you have someone on your
   end with some small programming skills to debug/look into this? Because I cannot
   really reproduce the issue.
 * The plugin upgrade as such can be as risky as any other software update. You 
   need to take a database upgrade of course and ideally have a test or integration
   environment where you can play through the whole process. But basically if you
   have the codes exported from your database, it shoud not be a problem to use 
   this export to fix potential issues which could come after the upgrade.
 * The last change to the database schema was even before version 2.3.0 by the way.
