Hello I already tried finding an answer to my problem via forum search but couldn't find anything.

For a client I'm setting up a small website where they can update small areas like events and recent offers in the form of a pdf-file.

The link is all set up and shouldn't be touched by them so I'm looking for a way that they can simply just replace the corresponding pdf-file.

I imagine the solution would be to simply give a link at backend to open the kcfinder and get going.

How can I insert that link to the backend?

Tank you for your help!

Hi Capzuwa

The most straightforward solution that comes to my mind is the use of type 'file' editable region (http://www.couchcms.com/docs/tags-refer ... /file.html).

Since there only will be one link on the frontend, simply define one 'file' region in the template e.g.

Code: Select all

<cms:editable 
     name='my_pdf_file'
     label='Downloadable PDF File'
     desc='Upload the file here'
     type='file'
/>

The client can now upload a new file and select that into the region whenever required.

On the frontend the coding will never change and could be e.g.

Code: Select all

<a href="<cms:show my_pdf_file />">Download PDF</a>

Hope it helps.
