## Description

Do you want to set up a download button for free files? Easy Digital Downloads has
the free download feature. However, the visitor has to go to the checkout page and
fill the form after clicking on the purchase button.

This plugin bypasses that process and lets them download the file right away.

#### Supports Download Counts

Each download is counted as a payment as EDD natively handles. So you know how many
times your files are downloaded. If it is downloaded by a logged-in user, you would
know who downloaded what.

#### Lightweight

This is super lightweight and does not insert any plugin specific options.

## Installation

 1. Upload **`immediate-free-download-for-easy-digital-downloads.php`** and other files
    compressed in the zip folder to the **`/wp-content/plugins/`** directory.
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.
 3. Create a Download with the price of `0`. The plugin automatically detect it and
    replace the checkout button to a free download link.

## FAQ

  How can I change the button text?

Go to `Dashboard` -> `Downloads` -> `Settings` -> `Misc` -> `Button Text`. Change
the value for the `Complete Free Purchase Text` option.

  What happens when multiple files are set up for a product?

Only the button for the first item will be displayed.
