WhatsApp PDF Share is a lightweight WordPress plugin that allows users to quickly convert blog posts into downloadable PDF files and share them directly through WhatsApp. It's perfect for bloggers, publishers, or anyone who wants to give their readers a simple way to distribute content.

The plugin adds a customizable button below each post (or wherever you place the shortcode). When clicked, it opens a neat modal where users can enter a phone number and instantly generate a PDF, which is then shared via WhatsApp with a pre-filled message.

Built using native WordPress features like AJAX, shortcodes, and localized scripts, the plugin is designed to be fast, secure, and easy to use—no API keys or third-party accounts needed.

Key features include:

• Converts posts to clean, readable PDFs using TCPDF
• One-click WhatsApp sharing with auto-filled message
• Customizable UI with shortcode support
• Responsive, mobile-friendly modal
• Secure AJAX handling with nonce validation

Requirements
To use WhatsApp PDF Share smoothly, make sure your site meets the following:

WordPress version 5.8 or higher (tested up to 6.8)

PHP version 7.4 or higher (recommended: 8.0+ for performance)

TCPDF library (included with the plugin – no extra setup needed)

jQuery enabled on the frontend (WordPress includes this by default)

1. Install the Plugin
   • Go to your WordPress dashboard → Plugins → Add New
   • Upload the ZIP file and activate WhatsApp PDF Share
2. Verify PDF Folder
   • The plugin automatically creates a wps-pdfs folder inside /wp-content/uploads/ to store generated PDFs.
   • Make sure your site can write to that directory (default WordPress permissions usually work fine).
3. Add the Button to Your Posts
   • By default, the plugin appends a “Send PDF via WhatsApp” button to the end of single post content.
4. Customize the UI (Optional)
   • You can modify styles via CSS or override the modal with custom classes if needed.
   • The plugin includes a modal with country code dropdown and phone input field.
5. How It Works
   • When a visitor clicks the button, they’ll enter a phone number.
   • A PDF is generated using TCPDF and saved to your site.
   • WhatsApp opens in a new tab with a pre-filled message and link to the PDF.
6. Test It
   • Open a blog post
