Requirement
This plugin requires the RainLab.Blog plugin.
What does it do?
Featured files extends the RainLab.Blog plugin with a possibility to upload featured files to every blog post.
This can be handy to attach documents or sound-files (for podcasting) etc to your blog posts.
Install the RainLab.Blog plugin
- First you have to make sure you have added the RainLab.Blog plugin to your project.
- Then add the Hambern.Featuredfiles plugin.
- Now you'll find a file field in the manage tab when you add or edit a blog post.
Pick a field type and allowed files
The default mode of the plugin is a fileupload field that allows all kinds of files. However, if you prefer to use the media finder you can change this in the settings.
How to use it in a blog post page
To view your featured files you find them by adding .featured_files to your post-object, just like you would on your featured_images. As an example:
{% if post.featured_files.count %} {% for file in post.featured_files %} <a href="{{ file.path }}">{{ file.file_name }}</a> {% endfor %} {% endif %}
First you check to see if you have any files... Then you output them onto your page.
