    How are PDF files uploaded in WP? Through the Visual Editor upload icon as for images? Is there a way to upload several images and files at once?
    Thank you.

    Through the Add Media upload in the Visual Editor

    Is there a way to upload several images and files at once?

    I don’t think you can mix image files and other files in a single upload…

    Thanks. When I did that with my PDF files and had them in my menu I got a 404 error message while trying to open the link.
    Thank you.

    I copied and pasted the link of the PDF file I got when I uploaded it to the media folder. When I click on the link it gives me a 404 Error message. http://invictatrader.com/?attachment_id=93 is the link I am trying to open. It is a PDF file uploaded in media.
    Thank you.

    It also opens up in a post type page even though I have not put it in a post. I want to use the link only in the menu.
    Thanks.

    http://invictatrader.com/?attachment_id=93 is the link I am trying to open.

    That links works fine for me. The text “BOOK – Traits of the Top 10% Traders by Brian McAboy” is the actual link to the pdf file.

    It also opens up in a post type page even though I have not put it in a post.

    Ensure that you select File Url – not Post Url – in the Dd Media window.

    I was getting a 400 error message trying to open it myself. I think it was the long title and upper cases that Linux did not like. Will use short descriptions from now. Were you able to open the book though?
    Thanks esmi.

    Only just tried it and the bad news is – No.

    Error 404 Bad Request

    The filename itself could be an issue – specifically the ‘%’ sign in it.

    Thanks esmi. It was the name. Linux does not like anything fancy in the name.
