Tested and works really well
-
This plugin works pretty well, the files are sent immediately, which is fantastic. You can also set the options so that if you have more than one file to offer as a download, you can allow the same email to be used (go to options and check the unlimited emails box). You can make more than one download link too.
Yes, the URL has the file name in it eg yourwebsite dot com /?file=PDF.pdf (followed by the rest of the URL) but if you use that link directly, it takes you to the homepage, not the file, so you can’t access the PDF file directly.
What’s great: You can customise the buttons and headings and text colours, heading content and a picture for your file eg a book cover for an ebook and you can change the size for it too.
What could be improved:
For some reason I could not change the “from” email address from the no-reply one to an actual email address in case I want to make it easy for customers to reply. I set a new email address but the file links are still sent from a no-reply email address.
It would be great if we could have a form that can collect a name.
Also you can only upload PDFs for download and not JPGs.
Also, the edited download file heading and text does not update when I edit and update it – my workaround is to delete it and make a new one. Tedious but seems to be the only option.
