Deciding not to download a mod convinces Nexus you downloaded it anyway

[HadToRegister]

1. Click on "Manual Download" on any mod page.

2. When the pop up box comes up where you have to click "DOWNLOAD" again, if you cancel out of that by clicking the X, The mod Thumbnail when browsing, will have the little "Downloaded" in the thumbnail, and if you go to the mod page it will say "You last downloaded this file on (whatever the date was)" even though you never downloaded the file.

This is pretty confusing when you look at your download history and you have mods you never remember downloading and don't have them anywhere on your hard drive.

I don't make a habit of canceling downloads, but was reminded of this today when I was trying to help someone change their Download Server, and so I brought the window up because I thought you could change it in that little popup window, and now as a result, have a mod in my download history that I never downloaded

Rooky coding.

 

Counts the download and processes it when you click the download button and NOT when the download actually starts.

 

After all, you clicked download. You won't change your mind.

That must be it.

 

Should definitely change the way that's processed, because I'm sure plenty of people change their mind, or even mis-click
