Re: file download link

Your example in reality uses typographical quotation mark instead of '…' and "…"?

Re: file download link

Buried in the error message is your clue:

Textpattern Notice: File tags cannot be used outside a file context

Untested, but try:

<txp:if_custom_field name="PDF">
    <txp:file_download_list id ='<txp:custom_field name="PDF" />' wraptag="p">
        <txp:file_download_link>Laadi alla PDF</txp:file_download_link>
    </txp:file_download_list>
</txp:if_custom_field>

You probably want to do the if_custom_field test outside of the tag, because a) you get a blank <p></p> and b) if there is no value given for the PDF, it will want to produce a link to nothing, e.g id=''. Not specifying an id is permitted, but then it expects you to be in a file context, like in the example above.

So … maybe your original variant will also work as long as you prevent the empty id from occurring, i.e. with the if_custom_field placed outside the tag.

EDIT I: mea culpa, philippe is right, it should be file_download_list. Corrected above.

EDIT II: I just tested it on the demo, the second option without file_download_list also works, you just need to prevent the case of a non-existent custom field from coming up:

<txp:if_custom_field name="PDF">
    <txp:file_download_link id ='<txp:custom_field name="PDF" />' wraptag="p">Laadi alla PDF</txp:file_download_link>
</txp:if_custom_field>

Re: file download link

Shouldn’t that be <txp:file_download_list > […] </txp:file_download_list> instead of <txp:file_download /> (if using as a container tag)?

The latter is, according to the docs, a single tag.

That said, perhaps <txp:file_download form="form_name" id="xxx" /> could be an option, and form_name contains:

<txp:file_download_link>Laadi alla PDF</txp:file_download_link>.

I use <txp:file_download_list> </txp:file_download_list> in a similar context as @Gallex.

Re: file download link

Philippe, you’re right. I’ve corrected it above.
