Error 404 – when linking to file

  • Hello – I am getting a 404 error when clicking on the links generated from MMM. It seems as if WordPress is looking for a page url vs a file url that’s in my sites FTP.

    Using this short code, I have the files in wp-content/uploads/mcm_minutes/%year%
    [MMFileList folder=”/mcm_minutes/2015/” format=”table” target=”_blank”]

    I have four sub folders being linked to and the short code generates them fine, but when linking to the files it doesn’t download the PDF, WordPress tries to find a page with that title and of course cant find it.

    Very strange – can you share a link to the site? If it finds the files it should be able to open those links directly – my only guess is that that subfolder maybe has strange .htaccess permissions or something.

    Hello, I realized the problem, I hadnt added the PDFs via the media library so WP didnt locate them.
