Allows you to wrap file links in a shortcode that will force a download when clicked

== Description ==

Sometimes you want to force users to download files from a link without having those files opened by the browser.
This plugin introduces the [download] shortcode that wraps your links and does just that. You'll need to manually
upload the force-downloads.php file into your wp-content using FTP.

The shortcode can be used in multiple ways:

`[download label="My Label"]http://myuploadedfile.mp3[/download]` would show as a link titled `My Label`

`[download]http://myuploadedfile.mp3[/download]` would show as a link titled `http://myuploadedfile.mp3`

If you wanted to use this in a php file, you could call something like `<?php do_shortcode( '[download label="My Label"]http://myuploadedfile.mp3[/download]' ); ?>`

== Installation ==

1. Upload the entire `download-shortcode` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory
2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= Which file formats does this work with? =

Currently, this plugin can force downloads for pdf, mp4, mp3, gif, png, jpg and jpeg files

= When I click links from the front-end, all I get is a 404 Page Not Found error. What gives? =

You probably didn't manually upload the force-downloads.php script to your site's wp-content directory.
