I had a similar email from Envato. I downloaded the version available from there. When I tried to upload the zip folder it fails with "the link has expired".
I see that the zip folder contains the sub-folders, but they are not in a "wpdatatables/" folder. I think that is the cause for the failure.
The latest version of the release is 2.3.1 which was released 24 October 18 auto update will be released soon but in a meantime you can manually update the plugin
Please take a look at our documentation where you can see how you can successfully update the plugin.
IMPORTANT: Do NOT delete the old version from WP-admin (by clicking “Delete” in the plugins page). If you do, you will lose all your tables!
Thanks Bogden, but your reply doesn't really help. It ignores my comment:
The downloaded zip file does not contain a wpdatatables folder! It only contains the sub-folders (assets, config, controllers etc...) that should be in the wpdatatables folder.
So your instructions simply cannot work. Of course I can (have) fixed the problem myself by creating a wpdatatables folder on my desktop, copying the contents of the downloaded zip folder into that THEN copying the wpdatatables by FTP to my server wp-content/plugins. But none of that should be necessary.
It also means that it is not possible to upload the zip file directly from the WP plugins admin page.
Hello,
I have recently been sent an email stating that there is an update?
However it appears that there hasn't been an update since 30 Aug 2018 (version 2.3)
Can you please confirm what the current version is and if there is an recent update that should be applied?
Regards,

You can follow this guide :
1.) Download zip from this link
2.) Use FTP to open /yourwordpressfolder/wp-content/plugins
3.) Delete existing wpdatatables folder.
4.) Upload previously downloaded wpdatatables folder through FTP to plugins folder (unzip it)
5.) Go to WP-admin panel, open Plugins section.
6.) Deactivate wpDataTables, and then activate it again.
Best regards.

Thanks, but I was only trying to help you. Sorry I bothered. No need for further discussion.
