Installation & first steps

1. Install and activate the plugin ZIP under Plugins → Add Plugin → Upload Plugin.
2. Open Settings → Builder PDF Presenter. Select content types that should receive the PDF management panel and set the website defaults.
3. In a post, select PDFs from the Media Library or upload them. Reorder entries and edit display titles where useful.
4. Insert the Builder PDF Presenter block and use the assigned documents. Alternatively create an independent collection in the block, use [builder_pdf_presenter] or choose a native Bricks element.
5. Preview the page and test reading/download actions. Save changes before leaving the settings page.

Embedding PDFs: Settings → Builder PDF Presenter → Embed PDFs shows the available ways to insert documents. Use [builder_pdf_presenter] in a Shortcode block or the Classic Editor; the shortcode reference lists every parameter with examples. Block Editor blocks/patterns and native Bricks elements are alternative insertion methods.

Switching from another PDF plugin: Under Tools → PDF migration, review supported PDF Poster/PDF Embedder content and migrate selected posts. Read the migration guide for supported formats, result reports and recovery.

Use Builder PDF Presenter with the WordPress Block Editor (Gutenberg): insert documents with its blocks and patterns. The Classic Editor is supported through shortcodes. When Bricks Builder is installed and active, dedicated native elements are also available.

The native Bricks integration was tested with Bricks 2.4.5.
