I know is an old topic but I have managed after hours to workout why I was not able to link to an pdf file, I was beeing served with 'Page not found'
Follow these steps:
- create a folder called /downloadarea/ in root
change config.php and admin/config.php to say Code: Select all
define('DIR_DOWNLOAD', '/home/(your directory)/public_html/downloadarea/');
and in .htaccess: RewriteRule
Code: Select all
^downloadarea/(.*) /index.php?route=error/not_found [L]
