Where can I change a product's linked PDF file?

Hi Everyone,

I’m working on updating a website and can’t find where to change the document .PDF linked to this product file:
https://stocklenses.zeiss.ca/products/zeiss-fsv-as-1-59-uvprotect-duravision-platinum-uv

I think the website was built a long time ago.
I tried to use the “inspect” tool, but I’m not sure where to look in the code ..

Can anyone help, please ?

Hi @Marionlesso

Thank you for sharing the screenshot to the page you are trying to edit. It looks like this page requires an account to access so I wasn’t able to load it on my end.

Generally content like that is going to be edited within the theme editor for the store or in the page details. I would recommend reaching out to our live support for help in tracking that down, as they can see the backend of the theme file as well as the public facing side.

A developer from our forums may also be able to assist through a collaborator account on the store as well.

Quick test - disable javascript in the browser and reload the product page, if the view document button is missing then an app or javascript is involved which can be common on sites with content-access restrictions.

Remember to re-enable javascript.

Regardless of outcome then figure out if the file hosted externally or on shopify to narrow things down.

If the PDF is hosted externally you will need to go through :

the themes setting either global or for the product pages settings

or go through products templates to find where they are being rendered from

But that does not give you access to any external services if you need to edit(“change”) that pdf or have them host a different pdf, it only clues you in how things are setup for the store.

If the PDF is on a shopify CDN URL when clicked/downloaded

Check the files admin for such assets

If the amount of PDF’s used on the site is small (under 50MB)

Check the themes assets files (if found there find out why and consider refactoring the theme to move such assets to the files admin to prevent longterm maintenance annoyances and problems)
