Installation and Configuration: A No-Brainer Guide

Alright, buckle up, buttercup! Installing this thing is easier than convincing your cat that boxes are awesome.

1. Get the Goods: Download the plugin. It’s probably somewhere obvious like a button that says ‘Download’ – we aren’t trying to hide it. Activating the plugin is next. Find it in your list of plugins. Hit ‘Activate’. Boom.

2. Settings Shenanigans: Look for the settings panel. Usually lurking in the admin menu. It probably has a cog icon or something. Click it!

3. Customize, Baby!: Now, for the fun part. Mess with the button appearance. Colors? Sizes? Button text? Make it match your site’s vibe. Or don’t. We’re not the fashion police. Set up the PDF options. Header? Footer? Go wild. Set email templates, too.

4. Website Integration: Decide where you want the print/PDF/email buttons. On every post? Specific pages? There will be settings to control this. Check the correct boxes.

5. Test It!: Print, PDF, email. Ensure everything looks shipshape. If not, back to step 3. Rinse and repeat.

Troubleshooting (aka “Why Isn’t This Working?!?”)

• Button MIA? Check your settings. Did you actually enable the buttons for that post type?
• PDFs look wonky? Template settings are probably messed up. Tweak them until they behave.
• Emails not sending? Your server might be grumpy. Check your email settings. Or bribe it with coffee.
