Link to Uploaded File Not Working

  • Hi,

    When using teachpress tpcloud or tplist to generate a list of publications for my website, I am not able to get a link to an uploaded file. If I upload a pdf file to the Media center, I can display a link to the file host page but not a link to a new tab with the pdf open. Leaving the link setting at “None” displays no file link.

    How do I get my publications to display a link for my uploaded pdfs?

    Has anyone had any luck getting the generated publications list to include the link for uploaded media?

    Hi,
    A a short guide:

    1. Open a publication in the edit publication screen in the backend
    2. Insert a new line in the URL/File field
    3. click the “Add/Upload” button
    4. Choice the file (click the “show” link for this file entry)
    5. Under the “Link URL” field is a button called “File URL”. Click it.
    6. Click the “Insert into post” button
    7. Save the publication

    Now the file link is visible in the “link” list of the publication. If you want separate icons/buttons for that, use the link_style option, for example
    [tplouc link_style=”images”]

    Hope that helps ??

    So I have done all of these things and it still does not show my link. On my end I do not see a “show” link for the file entry, only a Link URL line, which is populated. The File URL button below Link URL is also selected.

    I am still having this issue. Has anyone been successful in this?
