I added 3 forms. Each to a picture link. When I use the Preview on feature they will each show up. When I Publish the project none of them show up. I get a page error. The URL it sending them too is also wrong but I have Automatic encoding selected for each of the picture links

The forms are pdf documents for download. The site is on SDrive. Made with Word converted into .pdf files.

I added a folder to my resources and uploaded the files.

So they are in a folder called forms?

The URL should be
./forms/name of form.pdf

I tried to download the file called banglewood_contract.pdf, but it didn't seem to be a PDF file. What I got read as follows.

<html><head><title>Page Redirected</title><meta http-equiv="refresh" content="10;url=../https/lmstestcoffeecupcom/forms/banglewood_contractpdf/index_1966187.html"></head><body><h1>Page Redirected</h1><div>To this <a href="../https/lmstestcoffeecupcom/forms/banglewood_contractpdf/index_1966187.html">location</a>.</div></body></html>

The link in the page https://www.lmstest.net/about%20us.html to the supposed PDF file seems correct, but the file referred to seems to need replacing with the correct PDF file. I assume that the same applied to the other two links referring to PDF files.

I tried the download too and I got
"OOPS WE CAN'T FIND THAT ON OUR MAP"
which lead me to believe that the link from the image needed a
./
In order to point to the folder first.

Mind you I am on my phone so cannot inspect the code etc.
I might also add that the containers holding the images etc are way off to the right on my phone screen and I need scroll quite a bit, not a great user experience

I can't look at it until tomorrow Indonesian time, another few hours, but if someone else can in the meantime and finds the error then that's great.

Phillip, Its best practice to not use spaces in page naming. It can lead to issues with links and back scripts.
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.
