Hi! Thanks for reporting this. We will address this issue soon.

Now, the "download" activity is registered after clicking download, even if aborted then.

Hi! Thanks for reporting this.
However, unfortunately, I can not reproduce it (if I cancel the download the activity is not created).

I'm seeing this in both Chrome and Firefox, and the "activty" remains in the list even when I load the landing page in a 3rd browser. So, it doesn't appear to be merely a local JavaScript counter, or caching issue.

When one aborts the download modal with the PDF, ePub, etc. radio buttons, then you are right: no download is logged. So, were are one step further from the original issue: Expected: "...downloaded..." appears after starting the download.

I'm just saying that in case your server logs show a handful of "guest" downloads of https://slidewiki.org/deck/584 this morning, there is still a discrepancy to successfully completes, because due to 504 errors, or me closing that tab in which the "Save File to" dialog would have appeared, none of those "downloads" correspond with data actually streaming into a file on my hard drive.

I understand now. This is indeed an issue. Thanks for clarifying it.

You're welcome :-)

Any news on this? I tried it just now in Chrome 68.0.3440.106 & this still happens, just as above (Firefox 61.0.2 by now).
