Default Link to file on local hard drive?
I am installing Wordpress on an intranet and I would like to link to PDF files on a local hard drive. Wordpress requires a URL - does anyone know of a workaround to this?

Thanks!

Yes but when you try and put in in a Custom Link to add to a menu, it will not accept that as a URL. Thanks :)

Then you'll have to create a page, put that in the menu and put the link in that page.
