Register pdf upload

Hi @dvdmrnjcbssn

I hope you’re well today!

This is currently not possible out of the box.

There is a chance that it may be possible with a bit of additional custom code but I need to consult that with our Formiantor developers first. I’ve already asked them and I (or one of my colleagues) will update you here soon with more information.

Though I appreciate some patience as our developers are dealing with a lot of complex tasks on daily basis and it may take them a while to respond.

We’ll update you here once we got feedback on this.

Best regards,
Adam

Hi @dvdmrnjcbssn

I hope you are doing well.

Could you please try the following code?

<?php

function wpmudev_add_pdf_column( $column ) {
    $column['pdf'] = 'PDF Download';
    return $column;
}
add_filter( 'manage_users_columns', 'wpmudev_add_pdf_column' );

function wpmudev_add_pdf_column_row( $val, $column_name, $user_id ) {
    switch ($column_name) {
        case 'pdf' :
            if ( get_the_author_meta( 'pdf', $user_id ) ) {
                return '<a target="_blank" href='.wp_get_attachment_url( get_the_author_meta( 'pdf', $user_id ) ).'>Download PDF</a>';
            } else {
                return '';
            }
        default:
    }
    return $val;
}
add_filter( 'manage_users_custom_column', 'wpmudev_add_pdf_column_row', 10, 3 );

Add it as a mu-plugin https://wpmudev.com/docs/using-wordpress/installing-wordpress-plugins/#installing-mu-plugins

In the code get_the_author_meta( ‘pdf’, $user_id ) meta key should be replaced and on upload field show files in media library should be enabled.

Let us know the result you got.

Hi @wpmudevsupport12 , thanks for your quick response.

I just tried what you have indicated, and I see the column ‘PDF Download’ on the user page, but when I upload a pdf when I register as a new user, I do not see it in that column. The column is still empty.

Previously you commented that in the code get_the_author_meta( ‘pdf’, $user_id ) I have to replace something? maybe that’s why it doesn’t work. What do I have to replace?

Thanks

Hi @dvdmrnjcbssn

The the get_the_author_meta( ‘pdf’, $user_id ) needs to be replaced with the key you configured in the user meta mapping.

In case you hadn’t defined the mapping then only new registration would output the link.

Works perfectly!

Thanks
