I have this code:

{file_exmpl}
  <li>
    <a href="http://{path}{filename}{extension}">filename</a>
  </li>
{/file_exmpl}

This code is sitting in an embedded template though the title and all the rest is coming through. Also when i add a new file (i am using matrix too) it does show a new list item…

What am I doing wrong?

bottleboot,

What version and build of EE are you using?

Can you explain how you are using your embedded template please?
Are the Channel entry tags sitting in in the main template or the embed?

Hi Jhon,
Thanks for the reply!

I’m using v2.1.3, i put the serial in my settings, but so far it hasn’t asked me for an update yet.

‘Main’ file index.php from channel ‘apps’:

{exp:channel:entries channel="apps" orderby="title" sort="asc" limit="10"}

     <?php $entry_id = '{exp:url_title_to_entry_id url_title="{segment_3}"}' ; ?>    
     {embed="apps/detail" entries="<?=$entry_id;?>"}
                
{/exp:channel:entries}

The embed file code, detail.php from channel ‘apps’:

{exp:channel:entries channel="modules" entry_id='{embed:entries}' dynamic="no"}
{title}
{file_exmpl}
  <li>
    <a href="http://{path}{filename}{extension}">filename</a>
  </li>
{/file_exmpl}  
{/exp:channel:entries}

Evrything, but the files work, I do get the correct number of files through though.

Hi, bottlebot -

The File Manager has gone through some major changes between 2.1.3 (your version) and 2.2.1.  Can I ask you to update and see if that helps with your situation?

Thank you!

Ok, back to it. I upgraded to 2.2.2.

I still seem to have the same issue.
I tried displaying a file field with a single field (so without matrix) and this worked.

So I’m guessing the solution must be found there.
Edit: found & Solved

Hi bottleboot,

Glad to see that you have this sorted now.

I’ll close this one out now but if anything else comes up then please don’t hesitate to post again as needed.

Thanks,

Mark
