Thanks Hax. Sorry it took me so long to respond. I think adding the file download field will be the better option. Bear with me. I’m not a plugin developer, though I’m capable of hacking an existing plugin to make it do some things differently.
Would you mind helping me through this a little more. Mainly pointing me toward which files will need updating? I found admin/download.php, which I assume is where I’d need to make a change so the download would read from the new custom URL. I also found _inc/gallery.php which looks like where I add the custom file download field.
Am I right about those 2 files and what others, if any, might I need to change? I hope I’m not asking too much.
Thanks.
