    I had a possibly related problem. Download files are a custom post type called ‘dlm_download’ and they were showing up in search results, which I did not want. Even though I saw ‘exclude_from_search’ => true, on line 345 of download-monitor.php, the files still showed up in search results, then clicking on the result threw an error. But I then saw that the post_type being registered there was ‘dlm_download_version,’ not ‘dlm_download’. When I added the same line to the function call to register_post_type() for dlm_download, search results for the download file went away. I needed to do this because the download link is embedded in a post that contains a description, an image, etc. Did not want the search results to return both that post, and the download file separately. Seems to be working ok now.

    Hi David… THANK YOU for the fix! Hopefully the patch will go into the next release of DLM.
