I’m seeking a plugin that will require a name and email in order to download a PDF.
My ideal setup would be a button that says “Download PDF”, then, once clicked, a modal would appear asking for name / email to download. Example (click the download trial): http://realmacsoftware.com/rapidweaver/
I created a simple name / email form with GravityForms specific to each page on my site
I put the appropriate download links in the confirmation message once a form is submitted “thank you for contacting us…here is the download link.”
I then used the free “Popup Maker” plugin to create popups and put the Gravity Forms inside
I linked to the modal from a simple button
Result: When a user clicks on the “Download” button, a modal pops up asking for their name / email. Once they enter this, the download link appears.
