Provides an importer to convert your old 3.0.x downloads to the new download monitor custom post types. Simply go to Tools > Import, click "Download Monitor Legacy Importer" and follow the on-screen instructions.

Note on shortcodes: Download shortcodes containing IDs will mismatch the new Download IDs after import. Whilst active, the legacy plugin will try to step in if a legacy ID is called, however it is recommended that you update your content with new IDs to prevent errors. Some legacy shortcodes may no longer function - see the docs for the new shortcodes.

Note on data: After import, the old tables will not be deleted. When you are happy that the import has been completed successfully, delete the old DLM tables manually.
