Uploading???

[catpet90]

I may have this backwards. I would like the user to click on a button and get an mp3 file transferred from the site to their computer. Is that what the File Upload button is for? If so, how is it used? lnjzetro

Re: Uploading???

open up your FTP by going to tools> FTP Manager on your BV builder

Find the file on the left hand side of the screen and drag it over onto the right and into your public_html folder.

Then you make a link to it on your website.

after your domain name put a /nameoffile.mp3 and then when people click on it they can download the file and watch/listen.

Here's an example of how I did it:

You're welcome

Re: Uploading???

I'm sorry Ramsey; that wasn't quite it. I need the user to be able to download a copy for themselves. In some cases they will be purchasing the mp3. If you have any ideas; please let me know. lnjzetro

Re: Uploading???

you could put it in a text link rather than a button and put a note at the top of the page saying:

To download any of these files just right click the link and choose 'Save as'

Any good?
