📦 How to Make Individual Files Downloadable Inside a Course
Want to let your audience download a specific file — like a PDF worksheet, checklist, or resource guide — from inside one of your course lessons? 🙌
Good news: digital products now have an Included Products option that lets you bundle other products together, so you can offer individual file downloads right where your students need them!
The trick? Use a Digital Product as a delivery wrapper, then add it as an Included Product on your course. Let's walk through it step by step. 👇
🛠️ Step 1: Create a Digital Product for Your File
First, you'll create a standalone Digital Product that contains the file you want to make downloadable.
Go to your WithMe Dashboard and click "+Add Products".
Choose Digital Product.
Give it a clear name (e.g., "Week 1 Worksheet — PDF Download").
Upload the file you want your students to be able to download (PDF, spreadsheet, template, etc.).
Then go to your Course, and under its own options, choose Included Products and add your Digital Product as an included product.
✅ Step 2: Publish the Digital Product
This step is crucial! Your Digital Product must be Published, no need to Draft or Unpublish. Once it's published and added as an Included Product, customers who buy the course get access to it too, and it will show up in their hub.
🔗 Step 3: Post It Within Your Course & Add the Link for direct navigation
Now let's connect everything so your students can grab the download right from inside their lesson! 🎉
Go to your Digital Product and copy its Landing Page Link. You'll find this on the "My Hub" page after clicking on 3 dots to open the settings dropdown.
Navigate to the Course Lesson where you want the download to appear.
In the lesson editor, add a link in the lesson description or standalone text lesson using the Landing Page Link you just copied.
Add some friendly text like: "Click here to download your worksheet 📥"
When your students click the link, they'll land on the Digital Product page where they can download the file directly — seamless and simple! ✨
💡 Tips & Best Practices
Name your Digital Products clearly — something like "Module 3 Workbook" makes it easy to manage as your library grows.
One Digital Product per file — if you have multiple downloadable resources, create a separate Digital Product for each one.
Always use "Landing Page Link" — this is the current terminology in WithMe. If you see older references to "sales page link," it's the same thing! 😊
Test the flow yourself — click through the link from your lesson to make sure the download experience is smooth for your audience.
And that's it! 🚀 You've just unlocked a powerful way to deliver targeted resources right inside your course lessons. Your students get exactly what they need, exactly when they need it — and you stay in full control of your content.
