    Hi there

    This plugin is great and exactly what I am looking for – except for one thing I can’t accomplish.

    Is there any way to add a custom url to a media file.

    So for example – I have excel and word documents that when clicked, I would open in google docs online, so the viewer can read them without having any of the applications. I can get the google docs url that does this, but I can’t add a custom url to the file.

    I have found similar plugins, but they all embed, rater than nice little thumbnails like yours.

    Is this something that is possible? Perhaps in a pro version?

    Thanks

  • Hi Dan,
    I am in the same situation… the rendering within some browsers is killing the load time of PDFs and in some instances they just download (then open) eg. Chrome on Android.
    Youve recently added a new feature of “new_window – Open thumbnail links in new window”. What Im after the the location of the code that builds that new window URL.
    Im using a renderer called pdf.js which is GREAT, but I need to convert the URL from https://mysite.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/document.pdf
    to /pdfjs/web/viewer.php?file=https://mysite.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/document.pdf
    Your product is a 4 1/2 stars but would be a 5+ with a decent renderer
    Your quick response would be greatly appreciated
