Add a "DIRECT DOWNLOAD" button action in funnels
S
Stockton Walbeck
Need the ability for people to just click on a button within funnels and have it download a file that we upload. A PDF, a JPG, a ZIP, etc. That way I don't have to direct to a dropbox or google drive link

Any progress on this HighLevel team?

Yes, we also need this feature asap please! We shouldn't need to use all sorts of third-party solutions to be able to achieve this in GHL (our one-stop, all-in-one solution).

Wow. Figured this feature would already be available in an a "All in one" platform.

Agree! We often use lead mags that are PDFs and it would be a game changer if we could host these right within GHL which is where the lead capture page would live.

Joe D You can host them in HL. Just upload them to the media library. I have a folder just for this purpose, unless I’m missing something.

Carlton Calhoun they want to have it outside of just the media library, such as a button the prospect can click

Chadwick Lundgren All you have to do is add a button and make the link the PDF link. Am I still missing something?

I'd really like to see this happen also. I'm trying to deliver a PDF eBook right now for a client and there's not a good way to make it look professional. It's either a basic text email or a nicely designed template with the PDF jammed in at the bottom. I'd like to have a "download now" button that lets them download it in one click.

Christian Helms you can upload the PDF or Ebook to the media library. Then once it’s uploaded, right click and then select “get link” and you go to wherever you want to place the link and it should result in an automatic download or a page where the can directly download the file. So for example place it with a button in a funnel call it download now and it will result in an automatic download button. To white label it you can also do a URL direct so you can brand it for your company. Hope this helps.
Oh for the original post, you can do this with other files it just doesn’t always result in a direct download with images and videos with my findings.

Christian Helms I did this with a PowerpPower presentation, and it changed the format of the presentation from .ppt to "66d1846ecccab24bbc3f9230.vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.presentationml (1).presentation" (which can't be opened).
I tried the same thing with a Word file and that kept the .doc format, but changed the filename (and the contents of the doc files were kept intact).
Same story for an Excel sheet, the file was renamed, but the content was kept intact, and the file was viewable as per normal.
