內容簡介

總結：
這個「Email Gated Downloads」外掛幫助您在 WordPress 網站上創建需通過電子郵件登錄才能下載的功能。訪客輸入電子郵件地址（可選姓名），接受您的同意訊息，然後收到您的 PDF 或 ZIP 檔案的安全下載鏈接。這對於提供引導磁鐵、內容升級、清單、指南、範本或資源庫下載的網站極為實用。

問題與答案：
1. 這個外掛可以讓您實現什麼功能？
- 可將 PDF 下載置於電子郵件表單後面（非常適合指南、電子書、手冊、規格表等）。
- 門ZIP下載（模板、文件、捆綁包）。
- 創建清潔的引導產生提案：「請輸入您的電子郵件以進行下載」。
- 預防隨意收集通過安全鏈接和速率限制。
- 保持輕量化的下載紀錄追蹤（CSV匯出）。

2. 為什麼網站擁有者選擇這個外掛？
- 對於引導磁鐵的電子郵件捕獲–交換一個有價值的下載檔案以換取電子郵件地址並建立您的清單。
- 安全的門控下載鏈接–生成一次性、限時的 token，使您的文件 URL 不公開。
- GDPR友好同意–內置同意複選框和可自定義的訊息。
- 下載記錄+ CSV匯出–記錄電子郵件、可選姓名、文件、IP和時間戳。匯出至CSV格式供您的CRM或電子郵件工具使用。
- 輕量級和主題友好–最小化的足跡，可選樣式表（或停用並自行設計樣式）。

3. 如何快速設置這個外掛？
- 上傳您的文件：進入「Settings」>「Email Gated Downloads」，並上傳您的PDF或ZIP檔案。
- 配置您的表單：啟用可選的姓名欄位，添加您的GDPR同意複選框文字，並自定義訊息。
- 放置表單：在任何頁面/文章中添加縮略代碼[spdfed_download_form]（在區塊編輯器中使用块狀代碼）。

這樣訪客將可以看到您的下載表單，提交他們的電子郵箱，並收到一個安全的下載鏈接。

原文外掛簡介

Email Gated Downloads helps you create email gated downloads (also called gated downloads or gated content) on your WordPress site. Visitors enter an email address (and optional name), accept your consent message, and then receive a secure download link for your PDF or ZIP file.
If you’re offering a lead magnet, content upgrade, checklist, guide, template, or resource library download, this plugin gives you a simple “download after email submission” flow without bloated form builders.

Gate a PDF download behind an email form (great for guides, ebooks, brochures, spec sheets)
