I hope that helps. :)

Dear Cristián,

Thank you for your reply. It does not work in the HTML editor. I fill it right in in HTML mode and then after viewing the page a part of the html code disappears. In the viewing the link is not valid, while the file exists.

Click here to Download eBook (right click and ‘save target as’)

ebook.pdf dissappears as well as the closing ]” part.

I have created new page and exacly the same happened.

thanks

Weird, I just tried it myself and it works properly. Could you post a link to the page where you tested this?

Thanks Jyotisha.

It looks like a parsing problem in your WordPress. It could be cause by the theme or one of the other plugins.

Could you test it changing to the default theme first and refreshing the page to see if that fixes it?

If not, then deactivate other plugins one by one and refresh the page after each to see if the problem’s gone.

Once you spot what’s causing it, it’ll be easier to find a solution.

I hope that helps. :)

Yes it was a theme conflict I had to add

and 

in front and the back.
Now it works perfect. Now I can start the Paypal testing. Customers bought through paypal but did not got the downloads automatically sofar.

many thanks for your support

You’re welcome. I’m glad you found the problem.

For the PayPal tests I suggest that you enable logging. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Options -› Account Details -› Logging[/hilite] ;)
