How to add a downloadable file with webplus






















Open the HTML file that you want to add the link to. You can double-click it in the control panel file manager to open it in the built-in page editor. Find the spot on the page that you want to add the link.

Place your cursor in the spot in the code that you want to insert your download link. This could be in the body of a paragraph, at the bottom of a page, or anywhere else. Add the code for the link. Enter the following HTML5 code for your download link. This will start the download immediately for users after they click the link. As long as the file to be downloaded is in the same folder as the HTML file, you just need to use the name and extension.

If the file is located in another folder, you'll need to include the folder structure. Create a download button instead of a link. You can use an image instead of text to create the download link. This requires a button image already on your web server. Rename the downloaded file. This can make it easier for users to identify files that they download from you. Save the changes to your HTML file. Once you're satisfied with your code, save the changes to your HTML file and reupload it if necessary.

You'll be able to see your new download button live on your website. Method 2. Open your site in the WordPress site editor. If you use WordPress to manage and publish your website, you can use the built-in tools to add a download link to any of your pages. Log into your WordPress dashboard using the admin account. Place your cursor where you want the link to appear. You can put the link in the middle of an existing paragraph or create a new line for it. Click the "Add Media" button.

You'll find this above the posting tools at the top of the page. Click the "Upload Files" tab and then drag the file into the window. You can upload a variety of different files, but WordPress may limit the size based on your account type. It may take a little while to upload files, as most connections are slower uploading than downloading.

Add a description for the file. You can enter a description underneath the file in the Add Media window. This will be the text that displays as the download link. This will insert the download link at the location of your cursor.

Note that this will link to an attachment page and not the actual file. This is a limitation of the WordPress software. Method 3. Open your website in the Weebly editor. Log into the Weebly site and open your web page in the Weebly editor. Select the text or object that you want to turn into a link. You can highlight text in a text field or select an image on your page that you want to turn into the download link for your file. Click the "Link" button.

I increased the font size from 12 to 14 point to compensate for the smaller x-height of the Mandala font used for this text compared to that for Verdana. My free OpenType fonts have lots of symbols, e.

Using custom fonts in this way greatly extends the versatility of WebPlus for foreign languages or special purposes. For me, this feature alone makes it worth upgrading to WebPlus X8 as I develop my own fonts, and need to use lots of Latin Extended characters on my Buddhist sites.

It has long been a problem to use correct spellings and still be sure that site visitors can read the texts without downloading and installing special fonts. Even if one needs to use Burmese, Sinhala, or Thai words, as long as one has a suitable font that supports those character sets, WebPlus will do all of the coding, and upload the fonts automatically.

Improvements to bit scanning already implemented in PagePlus. Add text or logos to images to watermark them. Users often ask how to protect their images on the Internet.

They are combined with the original image on uploading the page to create a new watermarked image.

For me, the benefit of font embedding is the most valuable improvement. My Buddhist sites need Latin Extended Additional characters and I develop my own fonts, so being able to embed fonts easily without writing and testing fontface code is a huge bonus.

The Audio Player also solved problems with playing MP3 files without opening a new tab. The usual caveats apply when transferring sites from older versions:—.
