Which I have done in the asset library (firsttest.mp4) 2. add a link to my page that will play the mp4 or mp3 when clicked on. (not download it. ) so sometihng like https://jaguar-gopher-tesp.squarespace.com/firsttest.mp4 3. use this link to generate a QRCODE for marekting materials. the TXT and Button blocks let you download... I need to have it play The audio block and video blocks plays the file but no link is available any thoughts? Link to comment
Ziggy Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 It sounds like you're wanting the click to do two different things, which is not something that any feature in Squarespace is designed to do. How are you wanting to generate a QR code? Please like and upvote if my comments were helpful to you. Cheers!

The action taken when a user clicks a linked file (to download or play) is determined by the browser/device. It isn't possible to specify it. There are two ways to do this, but both will require you to customise it for each file: As you've found, you can allow a user to play the audio file by using an Audio Block. If you are on a Business Plan or above, you can add some JavaScript to a Code Block to play the audio file. Did this help?
