Thanks for the explanation. So what happens when many events end up with the same URL? Maybe it isn’t the problem I think it is? I can’t be the first person to notice this issue.

Did you get a fix for this? Same issue.

I understand the security reason, but please consider offering the option of producing the actual url in a future version.

It looks like that external URL option is only available on the premium plugin and not the one here at www.ads-software.com, is that correct?

@erniecom I’m not if sure your problem is related to mine.

My issue remains, the links to PDF files produced by the Product Attachment for WooCommerce plugin do not give browsers enough information to identify them as PDF files and open them in a browser window, if that is the local preference of the user.

Thanks for the reply. The mobile downloads are working in some cases after turning off all caching for the product pages.

This is not a great solution since page caching is important to site speed.

In addition, since the PDF links are not actual .pdf file links from the media library it is very inconsistent whether these are opened by desktop browsers or only downloaded.

Please offer a way to make these links display the pdf files according to the browser settings of the visitor.

It’s working now, must have been my typo. Sorry for the trouble.

Thank you for the reply, I hope you will consider adding attachment support for the External/Affiliate product type in a future update.

Unless there is a problem with that I don’t see.

Thank you, turned out the problems were theme related, and not the fault of BP Lock.

Sorry, accidentally asked the same question twice, tired.

OK, just wondering why this shows up on this plugin and not others? I ran the compatibility checker on a site with a lot of plugins and moost passed.

Anyway this sounds like a problem with the compatibility checker plugin not with your plugin.

Thank you.

Reporting back. I checked the links and had already Googled without finding any problems.

So I started over and re-downloaded the zip and did everything exactly the same way on the same website but this time it activated.

Must have been something going wrong with the downloads the first time.

The site is still behind a “coming soon” wall, is there a way I could send you a login and link in private?

Add that I tried switching the plugin setting to Asynchronous Replacement mode and it now shows the PDF icon but still not the file size. Everything still works on posts.

That answer was expected, but still disappointing. (and not funny) I’ve wasted too much time on this very simple plugin, all because of this statement in your FAQ:

“Coming soon page is visible only to unlogged users, so that you can work on your website and show coming soon page to your visitors.”

To me that was pretty clear that anyone able to login should be able to see the site.

I’ve already installed the plugin and don’t want to waste any more time so I’m going to buy the upgrade, but don’t take that as an endorsement, it is not.

Before I make my review I’ll watch to see how you change the description of the free version. It should be very clear the free version blocks EVERYONE but the admin from using the site.
