Reply To: Link straight to pdf rather than the attachment page

Hi @johnhillcoat

The page link field is exactly that – a link to the page.

To link to the attachment file, you will need to change the field_type to post_object. This will then allow you to receive a post object / ID which you can use to load the attachment URL.

Also, I believe the user experience will be much nicer if you use the file field to select a pdf file.

Thanks
