   Hello. Quick question - I'm trying to create a link to an article I've written, which I've saved in pdf. form. I uploaded it to my server, but when I use the Wordpress "links" option and try to link to it, I keep getting error messages. How can I create a link to this article in my sidebar?

   My website is mccoying.com, if that helps answer the question.

   What is the error message? Perhaps you simply attempted to link to the incorrect location.

   "The page cannot be found."
   I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. I uploaded the document to my server, and I just want to link up to it.

   Where did you upload it and what is the link to the file, and where on your site are you trying to link to the PDF?

   I uploaded it to the mccoying.com folder on my server, and I am trying to link to it using the "links" command on Wordpress.

   Try typing the URL directly into your browser address bar and make sure that you have the right URL.

   You can try using a plugin that handles attaching files http://gordon.knoppe.net/articles/category/attach-files/
