    Maybe its a stupid question maybe not.
    But how can I download plugins from this site with wget, without getting the download.php page?

    I download the plugins now to my own pc, then upload it to my business vps then login on my deciated to download it from my vps. Is it possible to download it direct from the site?

    It's not possible from the site here without logging in using a script.

    Maybe you can tag it as 'not possible' or so?

    It's possible, you just need a cookie and valid user login. A script would need to be written to handle it.

    I'm not great at scripting, so what I would do Brandjuh, is make a local fileshare on your network and use wget (or any other console command you choose) to grab it.

    I do not have access to implement one, and was denied when I tried before. We won't have one until we make finish the new site.

    Someone just needs to write a web service that uses a legit login which scripts can call. Rate limit it so it doesn't smash the site. Been thinking about this for awhile.

    rustservers.io pretty much has one. There won't be a proper setup till our next site though, so any tools would still be scrapping the site.
