Linking an uploaded file

MSGraphics 25 Jul, 2014
So I'm having trouble with linking a file thats been uploaded to an email.

what I have in the "Email" action is this:

<table>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>You are a ...</td>
<td>{dropdown7}</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>This is an ...</td>
<td>{dropdown8}</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Array</td>
<td>{text1}</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Array</td>
<td>{text2}</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Array</td>
<td>{text3}</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Array</td>
<td>{text4}</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Tell Us About Your Prjoect</td>
<td>{textarea6}</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Upload your Artwork</td>
<td><a href="{_PLUGINS_.upload_files.file5.link}">{_PLUGINS_.upload_files.file5.name}</a></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>


and the Debug comes out like this:

HI MSGraphics,

It looks to me as though the way the data is saved in CFV5 has changed a bit and the curly-brackets method will not longer work for the file URL.

Please try this instead:
<tr>
<td>Your Artwork</td>
<td><a href='<?php echo $form->files['file5']['link']; ?>' >{file5}</a></td>
</tr>

Hi MSGraphics,

This looks like a bug in the CF code - the Upload Files action is returning a path in the [link] variable :-(

I had quick look at the code and that looks OK so there may be something I missed, or an odd combination of data that causes it to fail.

As a temporary fix please try adding this to a Custom Code action after the Upload Files action and before the Email action.
<?php
foreach ( $form->files as $k => $f ) {
  if ( $f['path'] == $f['link'] ) {
    $form->files[$k]['link'] = str_replace(JPATH_SITE.DS, JURI::root(), $f['link']);
  }
}
?>
