Direct Download Link

Nothing seemed to be on that page, but looking at another page — with a form that says it’s downloadable, it looks like you don’t have a file in the link:

<a href="https://www.phiredesign.us/rx-form" title="here">here</a>

is the rx-form a pdf?? Then you’d need the .pdf on it I think.

Thank you for responding I will try that now.

I am trying to use this plugin and I am having a super hard time with it.

I tried to use this ode but it is not working:
[download label=”My Other Link”]https://phiredesign.us/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/RX-Form.pdf[/download]

I can’t help you with that – but you can post on the plugin’s page – here:

I’d suggest reading through the posts that are there too – looks like they may answer your question(s).

Thank you. Do you know of another way to create a direct download link?

put the file on server . And then provide the direct download link from your server

I found another way. I downloaded and activated “Google Doc Embedder” plugin. There was a setting on the plugin that is called Link Behavior at the very bottom on the settings page called “Force download (bypass browser plugins)” click on it and the shortcode you use that becomes a download link on a page or post that will automatically ask to download to someone’s hard drive when they click on the link. I think I will make a YouTube Tutorial on it someday. Thank you for everyone’s help.
