Hi

i want to replace url that i NEED to provide inside the [download]and[/download] with my automatic get_attachment_url script:
```
$attachments = get_children( array(
                'post_parent'    => get_the_ID(),
                'post_type'      => 'attachment',
                'numberposts'    => 1, // show all -1
                'post_status'    => 'inherit',
                'post_mime_type' => 'image',
                'order'          => 'ASC',
                'orderby'        => 'menu_order ASC'
                ) );
foreach ( $attachments as $attachment_id => $attachment ) { echo wp_get_attachment_url( $attachment_id );
}
?>
```
I want to use wp_get_attachment_url( $attachment_id ) instead of [download]ThisUrl[/download]

I want to use this download button on every post.. and i want it to be automatic.. i found how to get attachment URL .. now i need your suggestion.. My site is: and I want it to be Implemented in Content with all the other autotext i got..

Thanks in advance

I think I’m following what you’re trying to do. Something like the following should work:
```
$attachments = get_children( array(
	'post_parent'    => get_the_ID(),
	'post_type'      => 'attachment',
	'numberposts'    => 1, // show all -1
	'post_status'    => 'inherit',
	'post_mime_type' => 'image',
	'order'          => 'ASC',
	'orderby'        => 'menu_order ASC'
) );
foreach ( $attachments as $attachment_id => $attachment ) {
	echo do_shortcode( '[download]' . wp_get_attachment_url( $attachment_id ) . '[download]' );
}
```

Thanks for fast reply.. This however doesnt work.. it just prints the function in the post/contetnt. Example this shows in content [download]http://my-wallpapers.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/481.jpg[download] but not doing that shortcode.

Apologies. I forgot that the URL should be first be derived before it’s used in do_shortcode(). I tested the following and it worked. You’d of course want to change that up to fit your needs, perhaps pass a label using something like [download label="Download"] or something. Here’s the snippet that worked for me:
```
$attachments = get_children( array(
	'post_parent'    => get_the_ID(),
	'post_type'      => 'attachment',
	'numberposts'    => 1, // show all -1
	'post_status'    => 'inherit',
	'post_mime_type' => 'image',
	'order'          => 'ASC',
	'orderby'        => 'menu_order ASC'
) );
foreach ( $attachments as $attachment_id => $attachment ) {
	$url = wp_get_attachment_url( $attachment_id );
	echo do_shortcode( '[download]' . $url . '[/download]' );
}
```
