.pdf extensions uploaded through Gravity Forms not showing

  • Hi,

    I have a file upload field on the Gravity Form for uploading images of receipts.

    It is a multi file upload.

    Some of the images are not showing up on the pdf I have created.

    This one works:

    <img style="max-width:500px; max-height:500px;" src="<?php echo $form_data['field'][18][0]; ?>" />

    The corresponding data from the &data=1 is 

    [18_path] => Array
                (
                    [0] => /home/coppermountainst/public_html/wp-content/uploads/gravity_forms/8-97f7d1a5b416b8b3e425dfced28f4159/2016/02/20160202_1634371.jpg
                )

            [18.Attach/Upload reciept_path] => Array
                (
                    [0] => /home/coppermountainst/public_html/wp-content/uploads/gravity_forms/8-97f7d1a5b416b8b3e425dfced28f4159/2016/02/20160202_1634371.jpg
                )

            [18.Attach/Upload reciept] => Array
                (
                    [0] => https://coppermountain.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/gravity_forms/8-97f7d1a5b416b8b3e425dfced28f4159/2016/02/20160202_1634371.jpg
                )

            [18] => Array
                (
                    [0] => https://coppermountain.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/gravity_forms/8-97f7d1a5b416b8b3e425dfced28f4159/2016/02/20160202_1634371.jpg
                )

    This doesn’t work however:

    <img style="max-width:500px; max-height:500px;" src="<?php echo $form_data['field'][22][0]; ?>" />

    And the data:

    [22_path] => Array
                (
                    [0] => /home/coppermountainst/public_html/wp-content/uploads/gravity_forms/8-97f7d1a5b416b8b3e425dfced28f4159/2016/02/181-Headland-Court-receipt1.pdf
                )

            [22.Attach/Upload reciept_path] => Array
                (
                    [0] => /home/coppermountainst/public_html/wp-content/uploads/gravity_forms/8-97f7d1a5b416b8b3e425dfced28f4159/2016/02/181-Headland-Court-receipt1.pdf
                )

            [22.Attach/Upload reciept] => Array
                (
                    [0] => https://coppermountain.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/gravity_forms/8-97f7d1a5b416b8b3e425dfced28f4159/2016/02/181-Headland-Court-receipt1.pdf
                )

            [22] => Array
                (
                    [0] => https://coppermountain.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/gravity_forms/8-97f7d1a5b416b8b3e425dfced28f4159/2016/02/181-Headland-Court-receipt1.pdf
                )

    I can’t see why this is happening. Am I missing something obvious? Is it to do with the .pdf extension perhaps?

    Thanks

    Hi,

    You can only display images in the PDF using the <img> tag. Other files like PDFs don’t work, but you can include a link to those files instead using the <a href=""> tag.

    So how would this work then?

    Get the extension from the url string, check if .pdf, display an <a> tag if so, otherwise display an <img> tag?

    Thanks

    Hi,

    Is it possible to use <object> rather than <a>?

    I used the following but it always uses the alt: so still no image showing

    <object data="<?php echo $value ?>" type="application/pdf" width="500" height="500">
  alt : <a href="<?php echo $value ?>"><?php echo $value ?></a>
</object>

    Thanks

    No. It’s not possible.

    Yes. That’s how I would handle it.
