Hi, I was wondering if there is a way to echo the file type that was uploaded using the file field.

For example, if someone uploads a PDF, then on frontend I can echo “PDF” into the class and style it as needed..

This is in reference to this element:

Thanks!

If the frontend links to the file, you could use css 3 selector as workaround, e.g. a[href$=".pdf"]
