Hey Chris,
Simply upload the PDF in the Meida gallery, go to media gallery, locate your PDF file there and click on its thumbnail to view its details. On the right you will see the file url. copy it and use it anywhere. You can set the link to open in new window as well.
Hope this helps.
Cheers!
Thanks for the response zolumns.
However, I’m looking to have the URL display
“www.domain.com/sports/CollegeRecruiting101.pdf”.
Right now it displays the ‘media file url’ such as “www.domain.com/wp-content/uploads/etc…”
Is there a way to change that URL?
Well then maybe you should upload the PDF in the sport directory through your FTP.
Or
use URL rewrite method. Some of the info on following pages may help you.
