Hi everybody,

I'm trying to create a link to a PDF-File. Did create a new class "PDF" (props: name, description, binary file), but including the URL of that file always shows [ezobjectcontentclass].

What can I do?

Regards, Michael

How are you creating the URL?

You can usually do something like this

{node_view_gui view=text_linked content_node=$nodeVar}
