Still having the problem. Also, I can't get the address off the back-end either. It's too short.

This requires me to come here and download the plugin every time.

over to @mr-papa to check the server although I can't think of any reason there should be these sort of blocks.

If you're still using HostGator for your vps host, I bet there are a bunch of blocked IP’s.

I'm not sure since we have a virtual private server but it revolves to this IP for the moment.

162.253.150.91

This is the address which is not complete.
https://simple-press.com/downl.....php?id=724
It would simplify things if I could copy the failed address every time to download as FidoSysop suggested with the plugins earlier. 🙂

The new process to get the plugin is slightly cumbersome.

where did you get the url from?  for core, the id will change every time, but the url is correct, just has the ... on it for some reason... truncate after the id (ie 724)...

plugins are a bit different...

That IP traces to Santa Rosa, CA...  I have removed any blocks (uknown if there was) from that IP... so might be worth a another try...

Same old deal here.. Was able to download and manually update.

Strange that WordPress reports all updates have been completed.

I'm using Arvixe

Thanks for white-listing my IP Mr Papa, but it didn't work now either.

It loads fine using the URL. Thanks for pointing out that the ... should be left out. That saves me some time downloading the plugin. 🙂
