Content Hyperlinks and Download Button

  • Hi, I am currently checking out the free version of the plugin. Before purchasing I just wanted to know if the blog or article has hyperlinks will those be included in the PDF that’s created? Because currently the PDF is not picking up the hyperlinks from the blog content.

    Also, I have added the download PDF button through shortcode. When the PDF is generated this Download button is also showing up in the pdf as plain text. How can we hide that?

    Thanks!

    Hello,

    Links must be included in PDF. It can be just not visible. You can try to add to the CSS section of the HTML block:

    a {
color: #007cba;
text-decoration: underline;
}

    If a shortcode is added to Post Content, it can be excluded by wrapping the shortcode as:

    [e2pdf-exclude][e2pdf-download id="1"][/e2pdf-exclude]

    P.S. We are preparing a major update on the HTML render engine and plan to release it this month. It will have extended and complex CSS settings support and the possibility to hide elements directly via “display: none;” as unfortunately it’s not yet supported.

    Thank you for the quick reply.

    I tried the mentioned solution and it works. Now the only problem is the hyperlinks are not clickable in the pdf. They are picking up the css but not the actual links.

    Unfortunately, we need to take a look at the generated PDF and Page source to see if it has some specified setup. You can contact us directly here and attach the Page URL or PDF: https://e2pdf.com/support/contact

    Your PDF is fully flattened (PDF Flatten is set to “Full”) – which means that PDF data will be as “Image”.

    You need to switch “PDF Flatten” to “Yes” instead, inside E2Pdf Template Settings (Recommended):

    Or add attribute to the shortcode:

    [e2pdf-download id="1" flatten="1"]

    Working perfectly now.
    I also sent another query along with this one –
    How can I rename the PDF to the blog title?
