Adding PDF link to Text Widget
-
I have selected the Adacemica Theme for a WP web site. This theme offers two sidebar Text Widgets. I have uploaded a PDF to my Media Library. I cannot locate the steps to adding a PDF to the text within the Text Widget. There is no Visual/HTML panel that would allow one to add an internal link within this widget.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi @vclra,
This are the instructions for how to add a link to your PDF file in you text widget.
1 – First go to your PDF file in your media library, and copy the text that’s displayed in the url field (I had to press ctrl + a to select all of the text in this field – that would be cmd + a if you’re on a Mac. Then I pressed ctrl (or cmd) + c to copy it.)
2 – no insert the following code into your text widget:

Sorry, I can see that the code got stripped out by the editor here in the forum. Let me try again. The code that you would insert in step 2 would be:
<a href="the link that you just copied goes here">Check out my PDF</a>
