    Landing Pages and Urls and pdf downloads

    I Need HELP!!! I am completely lost. I need to create 5 separate landing pages that have a title and pdf. I don't want the file to have to be manually downloaded. I want it to appear when the person goes to the page. I also do not want to have the pages show up in navigation. I also need 5 separate URLs for each page.

    Hi Katie,

    can your landingpages already store pdfs?

    If not, you can add a new Document-Type inheriting all Properties of Landingpage and add a Property to store the PDFs (choose Propertytype MediaPicker).

    Then you change the Template file of the Document-Type. You could use something like this to output your PDFs:

    <embed src="@Umbraco.Media(Umbraco.Field("pdf").ToString()).Url" width="500" height="375" type='application/pdf'>

    At last just create 5 pages of that Type and add your PDFs.

    About the URLs: Do you need five Urls leading to each of the Pages or one URL each? What form do you want them to have?

    Thats actually very easy:

    Go to your Documenttype and create a new Property with the alias "umbracoUrlAlias" and of type text string.

    Lets say your URL ist something like this: http://www.yourdomain.de/path/somemorepath/sitename

    Go to your content and add additional paths to the newly created field like this:

    /secondname, /path/somepath/newname2, /path/newname3, /newname4, /completlydiffrentpath/name

    Your Content will now be additionally availible under these URLS:
