PDF Menu Linker

外掛說明

PDF Menu Linker is a small admin-only plugin that makes it easy to add and manage PDF links in navigation menus.

It adds a dedicated PDFs panel to Appearance → Menus, and a Replace PDF control on PDF menu items, so you can swap files without recreating menu items or touching URLs manually.

Features

• PDFs panel on the Menus screen – Select a PDF from the Media Library and add it directly to any navigation menu.
• Automatic link text and title – Link Text and Link Title fields default from the PDF filename (without the extension), and can be edited before adding.
• One-click Add to Menu – Creates a standard custom menu item that opens the PDF in a new tab, using WordPress core menu APIs.
• Replace PDF on existing items – For custom links that point to a .pdf, a Replace PDF button appears next to the URL field so you can change the file without changing labels.
• Native WordPress UX – Uses WordPress’ Media Library, menu editor, styling, permissions, and nonces. No custom tables or front‑end changes.

Requirements

• WordPress 6.0 or higher
• PHP 7.4 or higher
• A user role with permission to manage menus (typically users who can edit_theme_options).

Usage

Add a new PDF menu item

1. In the WordPress admin, go to Appearance → Menus.
2. Ensure a menu is selected (or create one and save it).
3. In the Add menu items column, open the PDFs panel.
4. Click Select PDF and choose a file from the Media Library (PDFs only).
5. Optionally adjust Link Text and Link Title.
6. Click Add to Menu.
7. A new Custom Link pointing at the PDF will appear at the bottom of the menu structure and will open in a new tab on the front end.

Replace the PDF for an existing menu item

1. In Appearance → Menus, locate a Custom Link whose URL ends with .pdf.
2. Expand the menu item.
3. Click Replace PDF next to the URL field.
4. Choose a new PDF from the Media Library and confirm.
5. The URL field updates to the new PDF, while Navigation Label and Title Attribute remain unchanged.
