hi!

I have a person who has his own workflow for a podcast.

I've found a plugin that will check the RSS feed for new content.

This then imports the new content to a wp post, and adds an audio player to the post.
This is good, however I have some members who want to download the audio file directly to move to a portable MP3 player.

Is it possible to add a download link to the audio player native in the Wordpress theme?

The page with the player on it is:

thanks!

Best
Michael

Hi there,

I can't see any way of adding the download button to the player. There maybe some plugins that offer that... but how is the Audio Player being added is there a script involved ? If so could that be 'repurposed' to also generate a download button after the player?

Could you add the download attribute to the download link?

Are you using a plugin to generate the download link?
