Simple PDF bar

Beskrywing

Adds a lead generation bar to the top or bottom of your pdf documents by creating a new post type suited for this purpose. Include text and buttons specific to each individual PDF-document in order to guide traffic from your PDF files.

To display PDF files in the browser, the user must of course have a PDF reader installed (e.g. Adobe Reader). Mobile users will load PDFs in their native PDF readers by default.

  3. Upload PDFs and configure the bar by clicking the Simple PDF bar link in the admin menu

Kwel-vrae

Is there a fallback for users with no PDF reader installed?

Yes, such users will be provided with a direct download link to the PDF file.

Why do I get a ‘page not found’ error when trying to view PDF?

You probably need to update the permalink structure.
Go to Settings —> Permalinks and click the ‘Save changes’ button to update permalink structure.

Why is my PDF not loading?

It might be because you’ve tried to upload a file that’s too big. Check upload_max_filesize in your php.ini file.

In which browsers have the plugin been tested?

Tested in IE11, IE10, IE9, Firefox, Safari, Chrome (with Adobe Reader installed)

Can I overwrite the PDF Bar CSS if needed?

Yes, you can do this directly from your own theme’s css.
