    Hi,

    I just installed the Redirection plugin to be able to redirect an old version of a PDF on our website to the recently updated version. I’ve done this successfully with pages, where the page starts and ends with a slash (i.e. /page/ ) but am not having success with the pdf. Is it because it doesn’t end with a /? Any suggestion?

    Best,
    Lindsay

    Hey arch2030,

    Please contact the plugin’s support and ask them to help you with the issue or check the docs.

    Alternatively, is it possible to change a file URL? For example, after uploading a pdf file into the media library can you change the URL of that file?

    Thank you! The “Enable Media Replace” plugin was the winner and worked perfectly, for anyone else who runs into this issue.

    Feel free to mark this resolved.
