If you're not seeing this issue, my guess is that your external files are stored under the same domain as your WP instance. Our download files are accessed from a different domain. Our site is fcm.org, and the download files are served from a bitwarden.com domain.

Attachment pages

Hi,
the Pro Version works quite good for my PDF files. The only problem I have, is that in the search results for every PDF even a link to the attachment page shows up (with the same title and excerpt). The attachment page doesn´t even have a link to the file. How can I avoid this?
Thanks. -
Hi @ibloom
Could you share a link to your search results page or a screenshot? I see you have a problem with links to the file or to the attachment page and it's actually switchable in the WPFTS Settings / Search & Output / Display. Did you try that?
-
@epsilonadmin that's an example link https://www.scheiffele-schmiederer.de/?s=holz. Not sure about the settings you are talking about. What should I choose there?
-
@ibloom Okay, I see some search results. There are [PDF] that linked directly to files. Also there are other search result items.
Which ones have the problem, could you clarify, please?
-
@epsilonadmin The PDF Links are ok. I don´t want to have the links to the attachment pages.
e.g: https://www.scheiffele-schmiederer.de/?s=holz
THIS IS A LINK TO THE ATTACHMENT PAGE OF THE PDF AND SHOULD NOT BE HERE:!

Hi @ibloom
Those "attachment pages" not look like usual. Do you have any plugins to upload files? Or do you create those pages manually?
Thanks.
-
@epsilonadmin To be honest... I wouldn´t know. In Yoast I have the option activated: Redirect attachment URLs to the attachment itself.
If I open the attachment page from the media library, I get a 404.
So I can access these attachment pages basically ONLY from these search results. I am quite confused, too... -
Hi @ibloom
It feels like some plugin is installed and it makes those duplicate pages. Could I check by myself directly on your machine using the Teamviewer session for example?
Contact me on the main website through Jivochat, please. -
@epsilonadmin Hi, we have added a filter now in the search Template. Problem is solved. Thanks for your help.
