WP-Force Images Download

Description

This plugin is very useful to those who want to download post attachments or featured images. Just put the template tag in single.php and this plugin automatically generates the download link for every post.

Note: The post must have a featured image because this plugin generates a download link of the attached featured image of every post, if the post(s) have not featured image the download button would not appear.
By using shortcode you can set your “custom image link” for each button. You can use multiple shorcodes on single page/post.

   • [wpfid class="myclass"]
     This class can be used to give customized look for each button. To add your custom CSS code
     Goto settings >> Wp-Force Images Download page and add your CSS code here and save settings.

2. Renaming Image file on download when using template tag

   Note there are three parameters for template tag

   • First one to change TEXT that would appear on download button. By Default its Download

     How to use it: See example below
