insert a "normal" link instead of a file?

[elionelle]

Hi,
is it possible to link to a php file instead to a downloadable file? I have a couple of files to download but also a link to another page I would like to integrate.

Is this possible and how could I do this?

When you say you want to link to a php file to do some downloads are you asking that some code should download a couple of files?  Maybe if you could explain what you are trying to achieve rather than indicating how it might be done then maybe I might understand better!  If you have severasl files to download then one way is to include them in a zip file. An alternative is to use a layout with checkboxes so you can specify several files to be downloaded.  In that case jD automatically creates a zip with the selected files and then downloads the newly created zip.

Hello,
no... I don't want to download sereval files in a zip...

I would like to link to a php file, because this php file shows a survey... so the question is, how I can link to another website, php-file, html-file etc...

I know that jdownloads is not a link list... but maybe it is possible to use it in special cases (like to link to a survey or website) like that...

The reason, why I would like to use it for links is, that I created a structure with the jdownload categories. And in the structure there are many "normal" files. Now I just need to integrate the "special" cases... like the link to another php-file or html-file.

Thanks for your help!

Hi
Still not sure I fully understand but if you want to link to somewhere else, such as a page on another web site, from within jDownloads then you can include a link <a ....>  text or image</a> in a Category or Download description that can take you anywhere!  In fact in a jD category or download description you can put a almost any HTML sequence.  Suggest you experiment with that.  Note that a Download may consist of just a description.  If you are reasonably OK with css you could make the link a button.

Hi,

I did not know that I can create a download item without a download file
