Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] upm_file: Associate single or multiple files with an article.
Did you associate one or more file id (using a custom field defined under “extensions ->upm_file”) to your article?

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] upm_file: Associate single or multiple files with an article.
Sorry fangonk I always used a code similar to yours and never had problems.
One last thing: are you sure you set the right custom field name under “extensions ->upm_file”?
If it is not the case I’m sorry I can’t help you further.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] upm_file: Associate single or multiple files with an article.
You’ve used an incorrect tag name. Try:
<li>Download: <txp:upm_article_file_list form="fileLink" /></li>Offline

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] upm_file: Associate single or multiple files with an article.
i tried reading through this thread and nothing is sinking in.
i’m trying to attach pdfs to articles.
in my article form i have:
<txp:body />
<txp:upm_file_article />
i created a custom field called “pdf”. in my article i have set the pdf custom field to be “1” because that’s the file ID of the first pdf uploaded in the files tab. in the extensions tab i set upm to be pdf.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] upm_file: Associate single or multiple files with an article.
mrtunes,
what do you have in your “files” form? (upm_file uses a form named “files” by default)

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] upm_file: Associate single or multiple files with an article.
Sorry, I’m wrong (and you too ;) )
txp:upm_file_article is just a replacement for txp:article.
Yau may want to use txp:upm_article_file_list on your article form (under txp:body)

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] upm_file: Associate single or multiple files with an article.
Hi, I have the plug-in working with a custom field and will be adding 2 different files (1 pdf and 1 mpegVideo) each with a different category. My problem is I’m not sure how to apply a different class to each? (using the if/else tags or file_category eg:
<ul class=“pfile_links”>
<li><a class=“cv” href =”#”>Download CV</a></li>
<li><a class=“showreel” href =”#”>Download Showreel</a></li>
</ul>
Can I use something like:
<txp:if_upm_article_file_list category=“cvs”><txp:upm_article_file_list class=“cv” wraptag=“a” break=“li” /><txp:else/>…
OR
<txp:upm_article_file_list file_category=“cvs” limit=“1” class=“cv” wraptag=“a” break=“li” />
<txp:upm_article_file_list file_category=“showreel” limit=“1” class=“showreel” wraptag=“a” break=“li” />
prob a newbie question but this is the first time I have played with download lists and this plug-in/
Thanks

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] upm_file: Associate single or multiple files with an article.
Off the top of my head:
<txp:upm_article_file_list sort="category asc" form="files" wraptag="ul" class="pfile_links" break="li" />“files” form:
<a class="<txp:file_download_category />" href="<txp:file_download_link />" Download <txp:file_download_category title="1" /></a>Last edited by Mary (2009-01-11 20:14:33)

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] upm_file: Associate single or multiple files with an article.
Does this work with 4.0.8?
I have installed the plugin, chosen my custom field, but there is no file picker in the write tab.
And replacing ‘txp:article’ with ‘upm_file_article’ results in a blank.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] upm_file: Associate single or multiple files with an article.
Don’t know, haven’t tested it. Could likely be it needs updating, since the two recent updates made changes to articles.

Seems to work ok for me. Keep in mind though, that I’m using only the “upm_article_file_list” tag.
Regarding the file picker you should install another plugin upm_file_popper.
