PDF redirect not working

Hello, we’re sorry to hear that you’re facing issues with the PDF redirection. To redirect attachments like PDF files to their media URLs using Rank Math, you can add a specific code snippet to your theme’s rank-math.php file. Here’s how you can do it:

1. Navigate to Theme File Editor: Go to Appearance → Theme File Editor (for a Classic Theme) or Tools → Theme File Editor (for a Block Theme) in your WordPress admin area.

   

2. Edit rank-math.php: From the list of files on the right, select rank-math.php and add the following code snippet:

   /**
   * Redirect Attachments to media URL
   */
   add_filter('rank_math/frontend/attachment/redirect_url', function ($redirect, $post) {
      return $post->guid;
   }, 10, 2);

3. Update the File: Click the Update File button to save your changes.

   

After adding this code, all your attachment pages should redirect to the actual media URL of the PDF file. If you continue to experience issues, please reply to this ticket with your site URL so we can assist you further. Thank you for raising this concern!
