Caption | Enter a caption to display for the media content. |
Show Caption | Toggles whether to display the caption. |
Always Download | If selected, the always download setting causes the module to treat all files as "generic" and display the a caption, file size/modified data and a download link. |
Alternate Text | Specifies the title attribute (for video/pdf) or the alt attribute content for images. |
Height | If specified, sets the rendered height for the embedded content. You can specify height using any unit of measure permitted by CSS. |
Width | If specified, sets the rendered width for the embedded content. You can specify width using any unit of measure permitted by CSS. |
Permissions for the linked file are checked at run time. If the user does not have view permission a 403-Forbidden response is returned along with the other page output (but the media module is not rendered).
