In this video, we’re going to be covering how to add a download button in WordPress.
This will enable us to offer downloadable content to our visitors with a simple click of a button.
We can use these buttons for PDFs, images, word documents, videos or anything else we might want to offer as a download.

Worth Noting: The button "styling" will depend on the theme we are using, so yours might look different than the one shown in my example.
