How to make uploaded file links clickable (not via "View Button")?

5

Hello,

Can anyone help please? I'm updating / customising the layout for RockCMS...

How to make uploaded file links clickable(not via "View Button")? Kindly refer to attached screenshot...

question1.png

Backend - I have a file upload mechanism

Public view... What we have now - To open the uploaded file, we have to click "View button". "Content Title" is not clickable

What we would like to have - To make "Content Title" clickable and hide "View button"...

Thank you

Ferdy

    You can get the URL for your file attribute by using {{ item | Attribute:'File','Url' }}

    Something like this should work to make your title appear as a link: <a href="{{ item | Attribute:'File','Url' }}">{{ item.Title }}</a>

    What type of block are you using to display the list of files?

    Hi Austin,

    I use "Content Channel View" - is this not ideal?

    Thank you

      no, that should work fine. What is the Lava that you have in the Content Channel View block? Where it says Format

      Hi Austin,

      In "Format" we have...

      <h3>Policies and Procedures</h3>

      {% assign itemCount = Items | Size %}

      {% if itemCount > 0 %}
          <ul>
              {% for item in Items %}
                  <li>
                      { item.Title }}&nbsp;&nbsp;{{ item.File }}<br>
                  </li>
              {% endfor %}
          <ul>
      {% else %}
          There are no content to show in this view.
      {% endif %}

      Thank you
