Support for jDownloads 3 has been ended
Since 17 August 2023 Joomla.org has discontinued support for Joomla 3.x. Therefore, we will no longer offer official support for our Joomla 3 jDownloads version 3.9.x from January 2024.
Please update your website to the latest Joomla version (Joomla 4 or Joomla 5) as soon as possible. Afterwards, please update jDownloads to the latest published version. The longer you delay, the more difficult the upgrade process for your website is likely to be.

High,

sorry, my English is not so good....


When I download a file with an external link, the hits twofold increase.
A link or example:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/XXXXX/Dienstplan%202016-12-26.pdf?dl=1

Can you help me?

Kind regards!

Hi
Are you saying that every time someone someone downloads from Dropbox that the count of downloads for that Download increases by 2 rather than by 1?

Hi,

look here:
http://tauber-leipzig.de/gewandhausorchester/category/7-cd-dvd-kataloge.html

When I click on the Download-Button I can see the PDF in the browser.
When I go back and refresh the side, the {hits_value} = +2.

My Joomla = 3.6.5
My jDownloads = 3.2.46

When I make a right-click and "save target in" the {hits_value} = +1.
This is okay.

Kind regards!

Hi
Can you tell us which browser you are using?  When I use Firefox it increases by 1 but if I use Edge it increases by 2.  Chrome gave same result as Firefox.

Hi,

Yes, the same here:

Windows 10 + Internet Explorer: +1
Windows 10 + Edge: +2
iPhone with iOS 10.2 + Safari: +1

Thanks Arno for this Video.

Regards!
Tom

So it seems to be only a Edge and not a jDownloads problem.

I take the very same.

Ja Arno, es scheint wirklich an Edge zu liegen.
Muss man erst einmal drauf kommen...

Danke Euch für die Antworten und stressarme Weihnachtsfeiertage!
