    Hello!

    http://naturaintegrativehealth.com/?page_id=2594

    On this page under “more information about HPV and escharotic therapy” (off to the R, column), I have some articles that I would like to link so that when viewers click on the links they will automatically be able to view and download the studies in PDF form.

    How do I do this?

    Thanks for all your guidance!

    Hey NaturaIntegrativeMedicine!

    Try putting it as HTML:

    <a href="_URL_TO_YOUR_PDF_FILE.pdf">Download</a>
    

    Regards,
    Josue

    Hi Josue,
    Can you break that down so it makes sense to somebody who isn’t HTML-savvy? How do I create a URL to a pdf file? It’s just a file on my computer.
    Thanks for your help!

    Hi!

    Place it on http://naturaintegrativehealth.com/wp-content/themes/enfold/pdf folder. You can create a pdf folder if it doesn’t exist then add the pdf file there. Use Josue’s code:

    <a href="http://naturaintegrativehealth.com/wp-content/themes/enfold/pdf/sample.pdf">Download Sample</a>

    Cheers!

    Sorry, that’s still Greek to me. How do I create a pdf folder? And where do I paste Josue’s code? When you say place it “on” http://naturaintegrativehealth.com/wp-content/themes/enfold/pdf folder, what does that literally mean stepwise?
    Thanks for your patience in breaking it down for me.

    Hi!

    You can use the WordPress Media manager (Media item in the WordPress admin) to upload the file and get a url directly to it or you can upload it right from the page you want to use the link on. From within the page you’ll actually be able to insert the link using the regular WordPress interface elements.

    If that is still a bit too much you’ll need to brush up a bit on basic WordPress. I typically point clients to: http://videos.wpbeginner.com/

    Thanks Devin!
    That was quite helpful – PDFs are now linked on the site.
    I appreciate your help.
