I am having issues posting a link to my website. I have this piece of code in a custom weblog field called product_summary

<ul>
<li><a href="http://images/uploads/specifications/vector/SAR-LIN-03.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Specification Sheet</a></li>
</ul>

I add it to the template using this code:

{exp:weblog:entries weblog="vector|helix|prism|matrix"   style="linear" disable="member_data|trackbacks"}

<h2> {title}</h2>
<p>{product_thumbnail}<br />
{product_price} </p>

<p>{product_summary}<br />
<a href="http://{url_title_path=products/detail}">View Product Details >> </a></p>

<p>{/exp:weblog:entries}

When I click on the link its URL is “http://vltest.qnuru.com/index.php/products/post/images/uploads/specifications/vector/SAR-LIN-03.pdf”

When it should be “http://vltest.qnuru.com/images/uploads/specifications/vector/SAR-LIN-03.pdf” 

I checked the preferences on the /images/upload directory under the file upload preferences and it looks good.  I set the Allowed file types to all and checked the path. There was a previous post that I found but I don’t have a .htaccess file to change.  Can someone tell me how to fix this?  Thanks!

I figured it out.  I’m new to EE so it just takes me a bit to navigate.  For you newbies, you can add the link to the file to any custom tag field by clicking “Uploa File” on the weblog entry.  There you can either upload a file or insert a link to a file that already exists in the uploads folder hierarchy.

Glad you are up and running again.Feel free to start a new thread if you have any more questions.
