Need WP plugin to create a list with links to different PDF pages

  • hello everyone,

    i have the need to use wordpress to edit some client’s sites.

    one in particular need to have a dropdown list on a page and every li needs to link a different PDF page of the same pdf file.

    Does anyone know how to do it and if there is a plugin to do it.

    Thanks in advance.

  • You can do this without an plug-in. If you upload the PDF file, you can add the parameter #page=number to the URL, where you replace ‘number’ with the required page number. So for instance https://www.unescap.org/sites/default/files/Introduction%20to%20ICANN.pdf#page=10 to reference to the PDF page 10. Remember that this number is the page number of the entire PDF and not the page number at the specific page.

    After that you can create for instance a bullet point list to redirect and add the link text to it. Or you can follow this guide to add a dropdown list via the ‘code’ tab in your page or blog post. Just make sure that the words are text with the link tag. With some CSS you can style the dropdown list as well.

    Of course you can use a plug-in, but I would suggest to use this way, because an extra plug-in for this feature will cost some extra loading speed of your WordPress website.
