Adding a image/Button for Downloading of a Document

[himanshujuneja]

Hi, I want to offer Downloads inside the courses and want to put some emphasis on them - for example if the download is a ppt - the ppt icon should be displayed just before the Download Now - Unit. How to implement this - Earlier - I had asked the same question and you asked to put the following code in - customizer.php

---

add_action('wplms_course_start_after_time','custom_downloads',10,2); function custom_downloads($course_id,$unit_id ){ echo 'YOUR TEXT 1'; echo 'YOUR TEXT 2 '; }

---

But nothing happens - how will this work ? how should I offer the Download as a secure one - the only option i can think is - create a unit - under that have a "Download Now" button and link it to the url of the document. Now....is this a safe way to offer download - ?? if a user who is not enrolled in a course and gets the url - can also download the document. Would appreciate if you can guide in this regards Thanks Himanshu

hi Alex, I have referred to the link and thanks for sharing this - I am able to upload the attachment/documents for the users. My concern is the - security - now if a user has the url of the download - then if he forwards that url to anyone - he/she can download the document - without being a premium member.....Is there a fix for this ??

For this purpose you can use the wplms-s3 addon plugin : http://www.vibethemes.com/downloads/wplms-s3/
