[resolved] Why does WP open a new page with PDF download link first? (2 posts)

    Hi There,

    I add a pdf file to my site via the media button in my admin. I make sure that the link is a complete url to the pdf. But when I save the page, the link gets converted to a post url, so when I click the link it opens a new page with the link on it which can then be download.

    How do I stop WordPress from opening the link on new page then having to click again to download.

    I want it to be a one click operation.

    Thanks
