Reset download limits for a customer

Open the order in the Alva Digital Downloads admin and click Reset download limits in the page header to clear the download count for every file in that order.

Steps to reset a customer's download limits

1. Open the order

From the Alva Digital Downloads admin, click Orders, then click the order whose customer hit the limit. Search by Shopify order number or customer email if you don't see it in the recent activity list.

2. Click Reset download limits

In the page header action menu, click Reset download limits. Alva clears the download usage records for every file, pack, link, and license key attached to the order, so the customer's count returns to zero.
