Hey guys,

I have some RAW HTML on a page, and for some reason, the links are not working and take me to a 404 error when clicked. I know the pages exist (they are PDF docs uploaded to the site) and the links are correct. What could be going on?

The page is address http://dominionpayroll.com/flsa-preparation/ (the links in question are the colored boxes at the end of the page, they are supposed to launch another window with the PDF docs)

I am using WP V4.6.1 and X V4.6.2. I am using the visual composer, not cornerstone.

Thanks!!

Hi There,

Please share with us the code you used on your RAW Element.

Do not forget to wrap on the code box here just above where you type on X Forum,

Thanks

Joao

Hi There,

Your links are missing ” ”

this:

<a href=http://dominionpayroll.com/next/wp-content/uploads/Federal_FLSA_Guide.pdf/>

Should look like this:

<a href="http://dominionpayroll.com/next/wp-content/uploads/Federal_FLSA_Guide.pdf/">

Hope that helps,

Joao

Oh wow. How did I not notice that?!

Thanks!

Glad we were able to help 🙂

First thing is to check for invalid HTML, when using Raw Content element.

Cheers!

Alright so I put quotes around all of my links, but they still aren’t working. Here is the code I have now:

<div class="feature-block"><a href="http://dominionpayroll.com/next/wp-content/uploads/Federal_FLSA_Guide.pdf/"><img src="http://dominionpayroll.com/next/wp-content/uploads/FLSA-Exemp-Guide.png" style="width:200px;height:auto;border:0"></a></div>

<div class="feature-block"><a href="http://dominionpayroll.com/next/wp-content/uploads/FLSA_Changes_Decision_Making_Guide.pdf/"><img src="http://dominionpayroll.com/next/wp-content/uploads/FLSA-Dec-Guide.png" style="width:200px;height:auto;border:0"></a></div>

Hi There,

The problem doesn´t seem to be on your Code but on the URLs itself or the permissions on the folder.

Note that the browser is case sensitive, are you sure those URLS that you are using.

If you type those URLS on your browser they also don´t work.

If you change those URLS for : http://dominionpayroll.com/next/wp-content/uploads/DPS-Checklist-Package.pdf it works.

Hope that helps

Joao

[rmoss]

That did the trick!

Thanks again for your help!

[Joao]

You are welcome,

Let us know if you need help with anything else.
