Download Media File Plugin

Download Media File is a small plugin for adding a button to the media modal to download the media file. Straightforward plugin, no need to customize anything to make it work.

Automatic installation

Automatic installation is the easiest option as WordPress handles the file transfers itself and you don’t even need to leave your web browser. To do an automatic install, log in to your WordPress admin panel, navigate to the Plugins menu and click Add New.

In the search field type Download Media File and click Search Plugins. Once you’ve found the plugin you can view details about it such as the point release, rating, and description. Most importantly, of course, you can install it by clicking Install Now.

Manual installation

The manual installation method involves downloading the plugin and uploading it to your web server via your favorite FTP application.

• Download the plugin file to your computer and unzip it
• Using an FTP program, or your hosting control panel, upload the unzipped plugin folder to your WordPress installation’s wp-content/plugins/ directory.
• Activate the plugin from the Plugins menu within the WordPress admin
