Description

There are no required settings in plugin – after installation ‘Download ZIP’ links will be automatically added to all:

  • themes to your Appearance > Themes menu.

Additionally in “Settings > Download Plugins and Themes” you can set if you want to append version number to ZIP filename, and/or if you want main plugin’s or theme’s directory to be included in ZIP.

Also there are “Download all” plugins and/or themes tools in “Settings > Download Plugins and Themes”.

Just what I needed

Just found this plugin, used it to download a theme where I didn’t have FTP access and removed it again. Worked like expected.

Awesome plugin! So helpful in development!

I’m a WordPress developer and constantly get into situations where I have to download a theme or plugin from the clients’ servers to debug/customize/etc. In these situations, “Download Plugins and Themes from Dashboard” is the number one choice and way to go.

Works perfectly, as described.

Many thanks to the developer. Thumbs up!!
