setting up a pdf catalogue with ajax
Started by: timC-7

Problem: I would like to use Views to display PDFs on my site. PDFs are organized into Category and SubCategory, and I would like to use a custom interface to filter my PDFs using link-style buttons. Solution: Views isn't designed to display the contents of PDFs well. This will probably require a 3rd-party plugin solution. Views is designed to allow users to filter results based on standard form input controls, like select dropdowns, checkboxes, radio buttons, and text inputs. Customizing those inputs to look like basic text links would require some custom CSS and HTML, which falls outside the scope of the support we can provide here in the forum. What I could help with here is an alternative approach that uses standard form elements and downloadable PDF links. |
