I'm converting our use of Custom Fields Suite to Toolset.

I've selected Toolset to manage the fields.

However, custom fields suite stores its 'file' type field data as attachment_id.

Is there a way of using Toolset to use that value (attachment_id) to retrieve the attachment URL?

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Yes - its possible but for that you will have to write the custom shortcode that will return you the attachment URL based on the attachment ID.
