/**
 * Force attachments download :
 *
 * In order for this to work, when you insert the file into your post through the media uploader,
 * you have to select Post URL rather than File URL in the Link URL field before inserting into your post.
 * A link to a filename will follow the browser's preferences, but by linking to the WP post link,
 * you can control its behaviour.)
