đź“„ How to Add a PDF and Link to Your Landing Page
Need to share event details, sponsorship forms, or auction catalogs? You can easily link a PDF document on your landing page to give guests quick access to important information. Here’s how to do it using both the Virtual Venue and Legacy landing page layouts.
⚙️ Get Your PDF Link Ready
Before adding the link to your landing page, you’ll need to upload the PDF and generate a shareable link. Google Drive is a great way to do this.
-
Go to Google Drive.
-
Upload or drag your PDF file into your My Drive.
-
Open the PDF file and select Share.
-
Make sure General Access is set to Anyone with the link can View.
- Click the dropdown arrow next to the Share button.
- Click Copy Link.
You must use a public link so that your guests can view the PDF without needing access permissions.
âž• Add a PDF Link to Your Landing Page
Once your link is ready, you can add it as a button directly on your landing page.
-
Go to Software Settings > Landing Page Builder.
-
Click Add Content Block in the location you would like the PDF to display.
-
Choose Free Form for the content block type.
-
Add a Title/Header for the block. Both are required, but title can be hidden.
- Click Save.
-
In the Free Form settings:
-
Choose whether to Show/Hide the block
-
Decide if you'd like to display the Title
-
Pick a Background Color for the block
- Choose the alignment
-
- Click Save.
-
Click into the text box area (Where it says Type something) and click the Quick Insert (+) button.
-
Select the Brand Shadow Button (third option).
-
Paste your PDF link into the URL field.
-
Add the button text you’d like (e.g., Check In Instructions).
-
Click Save.
âś… Guests will now see a clickable button on your landing page. When clicked, it opens the PDF in a new tab.
Use short, clear button labels like “View PDF” or “Download Catalog” so guests know what to expect.
