Łukasz Serwatka	Tuesday 11 August 2009 1:26:15 pm Hi, embed-inline tag can work for you. Users can navigate, pickup a file as related object and embed it in the XML block as embed-inline element. Then make a tpl file for the File class (I assume it is a File class) which in embed-inline view will show as <a href="content/download/....">{$object.name\|wash()}</a> In addition you can also pass custom parameters if you require any. http://ez.no/doc/ez_publish/technical_manual/4_0/reference/xml_tags#object_embedding Personal website -> http://serwatka.net Blog (about eZ Publish) -> http://serwatka.net/blog

Søren Knudsen	Sunday 16 August 2009 11:58:21 pm Thank you Łukasz. That did the trick. I had completely overlooked the posibility of inserting the object in for example an article, and not a link. Damien: I forgot to mention that I had allready read your blog entry, but couldn't make it work. I succeeded adding the download class, but making the link_download.tpl template linking to the object's binary content was the problem. Thank you both for helping out, anyway:)

Hi Søren,

I wrote an article about this topic in my blog :
http://pwet.fr/blog/creating_a_link_to_download_a_file_with_online_editor_in_ez_publish

It's a bit old with a screenshot of Online Editor 4 (ezdhtml) but it should work with Online Editor 5 (ezoe) with a few changes.

Cheers.

Damien
