  Creating a download link (from file url) using the add media button seems to make the user’s browser automatically play the audio file when users click on the link. But what I want to do is let the user download the file directly onto their computer when clicking on the link. Any advice on how to accomplish this?

  I’m sorry but we need the URL for the blog in question starting with http:// in order to give you an accurate answer.
