You don’t need FTP Applications anymore. Use dropdown list and select what plugin you want to download and you will get it as .Zip file.
Single download
Click on the input field, and a dropdown list will be presented. In this list, you will find the names and version numbers of the plugins. You can select one or multiple themes to download.
Once a theme is selected, click on the ‘Download’ button. A browser’s default dialog box will then appear, allowing you to choose where you want to save the file on your computer.
Multiple downloads
You can choose more than one theme to download at once. The selected themes will be added to the list. Once you have finished selecting, just like with a single plugin, click on the ‘Download’ button.
Note: selecting multiple themes will export them as one zip file with multiple folders inside, not as multiple zip files for each plugin.
