    Hello,
    I am contacting you because I have an error with a redirect for an “attachment” link.
    My page contains a link: “attachment_id …” (photo n ° 1) but when I click on it, I am redirected to this page (photo n ° 2). To open my pdf file, I must click on the link again (photo n ° 2).
    I do not understand why by clicking on the link “attachment …” I am not redirected directly to the pdf file.

    Hello,

    I have updated the sensitive data as requested. Can you please check further?
    link 2 is at the bottom of page 1. Normally, I should be redirected to link 3 automatically.

    Thank you.

    Hello,

    It seems the redirection is not done correctly.

    You need to redirect ?attachment_id=3616 to wp-content/uploads/2020/01/QSC_KW181_Manuel_FR.pdf

    You can check how to setup the redirection correctly:

    Why not but there are 84 products on my site with a total of over 100 PDF documentation files, I cannot create a redirect for each PDF file.
    Before the installation of Rank Math, this redirection was done automatically …

    Hello,

    Rank math has an option to redirect attachment URLs. To enable/disable this just head over to Rank math > General Settings > Links > redirect attachments.
    img

    If this is enabled, all attachment are redirected to their parent URLs. URLs that are not attached to any post are redirected using the redirect orphan option which is usually homepage by default.

    You can try disabling this option, if enabled, to stop the pdf file redirecting to the parent page.

    Let us know if this helps
