Email Before Download (EBD) presents your users with a form where they submit information, like their name and email address, prior to receiving a download. This plugin integrates with the popular Contact Form 7 and WordPress Download Monitor plugins, allowing you to create any form you like and manage/monitor your file downloads. You can also EXPORT a list of users that have downloaded files from the plug-in’s settings page. Prior to installing Email Before Download, please confirm each of the dependent plugins is already installed and working independently.
As an option, you can configure Email Before Download to:
Display a link to your file directly under the contact form once it is submitted. This happens dynamically, inline of your post/page.
Send the user an email with a link and/or attachment to download your file.
