    Does anyone know if there is a way to make a permanent link to whatever is the newest release on a BukkitDev mod? Sorry if it is really obvious.

    No, the link changes for each new file upload (it's based off of the file's name). You'll have to use RSS to grab the link to the latest file upload.
     
  3. bukget.org/plugin/plugin-name/latest/download

    This should work, tell me if it doesn't please.

    Wow, alot of comments, thanks all. I have been gone, but once im home ill have to try this...
     
  7. Just to clarify the URL is: bukget.org/api/plugin/plugin-name/latest/download

    Simply replace plugin-name with the name of the plugin, in lower case.

    When using the link, does it link to the newest approved file? or newest uploaded but not necessarily approved?
     
  9. No idea actually, most likely the latest approved.

    Another thought: Does this get included in the download counter? I have tried to test it, but as far as i can tell there is a significant delay, OR it knows it is me whos downloading it.
     
  11. It depends how bukkit dev works, I believe it should count the download.
