I just purchased the file download module and wondering if there is a way to change its default behavior?

By default it adds some really cool looking icons to the page where I add the files (see screenshot)

BUT to download these files you have to click on it- then it takes you to a file download page where you have to find the "download arrow" to start the download...

I want to be able to click the icons in the screenshot and have the downloads start directly from that page..

I know I can take a screenshot of each of the file icons and information...add them to the page ( remove the embed file code) then link these images directly to the download url....but I was hoping there was a way that made more sense..

So what i am after is to embed these files on a page BUT have the download start directly from theirs links on that specific page and NOT have to go to a new page and find the download arrow icon to download

It should have been doing that anyhow. Update to the marketplace and its working correctly in 1.0.9.

Thanks for finding that.

Could you please reload that from the marketplace now. It should be fixed.
