We are no longer on SourceForge, thus it must be another problem.
How do you see this anyway?  If you can explain the problem more clearly
I can open a support request.

If I visit a plugin page on the Vim site (e.g., https://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=4156) and click on one of the download links at the bottom of the page, the file downloads but the "Downloaded by" value doesn't increment, even after I've refreshed the page.

Thanks,
