    Hello,

    I’m currently stumped on an issue I’m experiencing on a site currently in development.

    When trying to access PDFs on the site, I’m receive a 404 error when I’m not logged in.
    However, when I log into the site, the PDF links work fine.

    Any insights into what might be causing this issue would be appreciated.

    htaccess file:

    AddHandler php-stable .php

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress

# protect wp-config.php
<files wp-config.php>
order allow,deny
deny from all
</files>

# protect htaccess
<Files ~ "^.*\.([Hh][Tt][Aa])">

    I just reverted the permalinks to the default setting and when trying to access a pdf, I noticed a “/” appended to the end of the file… Odd, right?

    I switched back to previously used permalink “Post Name” structure:
    http://websiteurl.com/%postname%/
