For reference, the answer to my question was that I needed to first upload the .exe file into the media library, and then attach it to the page.
Hi, I’m trying to add a .exe file to our site for customers to download.
I’ve installed the wp-extra-file-types plugin as recommended, and checked the “skip wordpress checks” to allow me to process a .exe file, but when I try to upload the .exe file onto a page, I get the same error as before:
“Sorry, this file type is not permitted for security reasons.”
Is there something else I need to do to enable .exes on my site?
