When I create a new post I try to include a link to a pdf file and it shows up when im editing but once i publish or preview the blog the link isnt there, I have tried 50 times same thing happens and im pretty sure im doing it right too, any help would be appreciated.
So are you saying you want to view the pdf in the post, or you want a link to the pdf? If you just want to link, then the process is thus; Upload PDF using the image uploader Copy the link to the PDF from the "Location" part of the uploader Use the link URL to create a link in the post. If you are doing that and it is not working, it might be because the PDF is too large, who knows.
