Thread: Downloading from site

My apologies if I missed this in the tutorials or in a thread.

How do you make a file availiable for download from my site? For example, an audio file or a powerpoint file.

Thanks,

Use 'FTP Manager' to transfer the material to your server.
You can create a new folder to put it in, or just place it in your
public_html folder. Then create a button or text link to the file
paying attention to the location and the extention. If you place an
mp3 into public_html, then use: http://www.ursite.com/ursound.mp3
If you create a folder on your server called music then use,
http://www.ursite.com/music/ursound.mp3

When your visitor clicks the link, the file will download to their computer.

Thank you

That clears it right up!!

hello there,
thanx to the thread starter and the helper, coz i was just looking for this one.
thankx again

hi guys, I will just add an important note:

When you create a link for the file make sure you select "file:" in link type, if you keep it as http: it might just open the file in the page.

This is great help to me too !
Thanks !
