BBA Secure File Downloads

Beschreibung

BBA Secure File Downloads lets you select files from the Media Library and generate a stable File ID for each file. Then you can place a download button anywhere using:

[bbasfd_download id=“FILE_ID“]

The download is served through a controlled endpoint instead of exposing the direct file URL.

Settings — set the default download button text used when a shortcode does not specify its own. — The Files screen — pick any file already in your Media Library, get a stable numeric File ID and a ready-to-copy shortcode.

Installation

Upload the plugin folder to /wp-content/plugins/ or install via Plugins.
Activate the plugin.
Go to Secure Downloads Files and add your files.
Copy the shortcode and paste it into a page/post.

FAQ

How many secure files can I create on the free version?: Unlimited. The free version does not cap the number of secure File IDs you can create. PRO does not „unlock more files“ — instead it adds analytics (who downloaded what, and when), per-file password protection, and per-file download limits (cap the number of times a specific file can be downloaded).
Does it work with Elementor?: Yes. Use Elementor’s Shortcode widget with the [bbasfd_download] shortcode.
Where can I get the PRO version?: You can learn more about the PRO version here:

1.0.9 – 2026-07-23

Fix: the built-in „How to Use“ help page showed the wrong shortcode ([secure_download]); it now correctly shows [bbasfd_download].
New: added „Getting Started“ and „How It Works“ help pages in the admin so first-time setup and the security model are documented in-plugin.
Change: removed the unused „Default link expiry“ setting, which described a capability the current product does not ship.
