How to Add a Download Link to a RAR File in WordPress

If you have a RAR file that you want to share with your audience, you can easily do so through your WordPress website. By adding a download link, your visitors can download the file directly from your webpage.

Here's how to add a download link to a RAR file in WordPress:

1. First, upload the RAR file to your WordPress media library. To do this, go to your WordPress dashboard and navigate to Media > Add New. From there, you can drag and drop the RAR file into the media uploader, or select it from your computer's files.

2. Once the RAR file is uploaded, click on it to open up its details page. Look for the "File URL" field on the right-hand side of the page, and copy the URL that is provided.

3. Next, go to the page or post where you want to add the download link for your RAR file. In the page editor, highlight the text or image that you want to turn into a download link.

4. Click on the "Insert/edit link" button in the editor toolbar. In the popup window, paste the URL for your RAR file in the "URL" field. You can also add a title for the link, as well as specify whether the link should open in a new window/tab.

5. Finally, click "Add Link" to create the download link. You should now see the linked text or image in the page editor, with an underline indicating that it is a hyperlink.

That's it! Your visitors can now click on the link to download the RAR file directly from your WordPress website. By following these steps, you can make it easy for your audience to access files and resources that you want to share with them.
