 * Hi.
 * After the last update when I click on any PDF link it redirects to the home page.
   I’m using PDF Embedder Premium Secure 4.3.2 if I switch to PDF Embedder FREE 
   it works fine.
 * Thanks.

 * Hi [@iacaro](https://wordpress.org/support/users/iacaro/),
 * It sounds like you are linking _directly_ to the PDF file which would result 
   in the redirect to the home page. This is the correct behaviour for the Secure
   version of the plugin (either redirect or 403 Forbidden depending on your site
   config).
 * If you want to use a link to the document instead of embedding it directly, you
   need to link to the PDF’s attachment page instead because direct access to the
   document file is forbid by any means other that the embedded viewer.
 * Please see our FAQ on attachment pages and the Secure version of the plugin as
   well as linking to attachment pages:
    - Secure attachment pages: [https://wp-pdf.com/kb/auto-generate-a-wordpress-page-to-embed-the-pdf/](https://wp-pdf.com/kb/auto-generate-a-wordpress-page-to-embed-the-pdf/)
    - The example here uses thumbnail images but the same process applies for text

 * No, I want to embed it directly. I’m using
 * [pdf-embedder url=”” title=””]
 * and it just shows the title of the PDF, when I click on it redirects to the home
   page.
 * I’m not using any cache plugin and it was working fine before the latest update.

 * Hi [@iacaro](https://wordpress.org/support/users/iacaro/),
 * Email sent for login request. We can continue the conversation via email since
   this is a support inquiry on the paid version of the plugin.
