Organize documents in WordPress
BSK PDF Manager Pro is a WordPress document-management tool for administrators who need to organize and display PDFs and other files on their websites. It can manage common document, archive, image, presentation, spreadsheet, and related file formats, including PDF, ZIP, GZ, RAR, PNG, JPG, JPEG, GIF, TIF, TIFF, SWF, DOCX, XLSX, PPTX, CSV, Pages, Numbers, and Keynote files.
Files can be displayed by category or as a selected individual document. This makes the Pro edition suitable for resource libraries, client documents, downloadable materials, and websites that need a structured way to present a large collection of files.
Display files with practical controls
Each PDF or document can have its own permalink. You can share that permalink with clients and update the document version later without requiring visitors to find a different document location. To place a file display on a page or post, add the plugin’s shortcode where the document or file link should appear.
- Organize PDFs and other supported files by category.
- Display a specific PDF or file when needed.
- Give each document its own permalink.
- Update document versions while retaining the document location.
- Insert document or file links into pages and posts with a shortcode.
View PDF content in the browser
BSK PDF Manager uses Mozilla’s PDF.js to display PDF content when this feature is enabled. When a visitor clicks a PDF link, the document can be shown in the browser rather than requiring the visitor to use the same computer or mobile platform as the administrator. The source describes this viewing experience for PC, Mac, iPhone, iPad, and Android devices.
This browser-based presentation is useful when a site needs to make PDF content available across different visitor devices. Other supported files can still be managed and displayed as file links through the plugin’s document workflow.
Pro administration features
The Pro edition adds tools for administrators with advanced document-management requirements. Featured images can be assigned to PDFs or other documents, and thumbnails can be generated from PDF files to create a more visual document listing.
- Use featured images for PDFs and documents.
- Generate thumbnails from PDF files.
- Receive notifications.
- Bulk add files via FTP.
- Bulk add files via the WordPress media area.
Bulk-add options can help when a site contains many files or when documents are already available through FTP or the media library. Categories, individual document selection, permalinks, and shortcode placement provide a workflow from file organization to front-end display.
Installation and setup
Install BSK PDF Manager Pro in WordPress, add or bulk-add the files you want to manage, and organize them by category or as individual documents. Configure featured images, PDF thumbnails, notifications, or PDF.js viewing as needed. Then add the plugin shortcode to the page or post where the file link or document display should appear.
BSK PDF Manager Pro combines document organization, browser-based PDF viewing, shareable permalinks, visual file presentation, notifications, and bulk-import tools for WordPress administrators managing PDF and other file collections.
