Hi Geraint,
We have already talk about this few months ago but this time it's quite urgent for us.
We need the possibility to add a text for the link created by the eldownload custom field.

For example : the file is very_important_file.pdf and we want the text for the link be very important file (PDF, 3Mo, 15 pages).

Do you think this could be achieve shortly (in few weeks ?)

Thanks for your work on this ;-)

After hours : the links are good now ^^
I can add a config option to the eldownload field type so that it will output the href and not the <a> tag - but it would ALWAYS do that per field you define. Would that be ok?

I have coded the option to output the raw value from the custom field - it will be included in the next build/release of EasyLayouts

Hi,
Sorry to hear your difficulties.
Yes your proposition could be a thing ;-) Of course an all in one custom fields will be better (yeah yeah we are demanding :D).
For my information, is it very muych complicated to create a custom fields with multiple input fields rather than a single fields ?

Thanks
Sorry for the delay in responding - my telephone line and internet connection has been down so I'm forced to work with a tethered mobile phone connection with a 2G signal :(

I can easily change the custom field output to give you a raw URL for the file download - then you could add a second custom field for the displayed name and construct the output using wrappers. Is that a feasible solution in the short term?
