[memb_file_link]

Description

Renders an anchor tag pointing at a file inside a configured Secure Files profile. Two linking modes:

• Indirect (default): links to a Torii-proxied URL. The provider URL is signed at access time, so signatures stay short-lived and the link keeps working from cached pages.
• Direct (direct_link="yes"): embeds a provider-signed URL generated at render time, valid for the expiration window.

Link text resolution order: enclosed shortcode content, then the text attribute, then the file's basename.

Shortcode Examples

Direct link with a download attribute:

[memb_file_link profile="s3-videos" path="reports/2026.pdf" text="Download Report" direct_link="yes" download="report-2026.pdf"]
