I have a custom post type where is a repeatable file field, if the file attached is a pdf in output view I d'like to show the pdf icon, when the file is a xlsx I' dl'ke to show the xlsx icon

I know the conditional output but I don't how to manage the file format

now i set the view like this and all works fine but obviously only the pdf icon are shown

<img src="hidden link" width="24" height="29" class="alignleft size-medium" /><a href="[types field='pdf' output='raw'][/types]" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><div class="download">[wpv-post-title]</div></a><br>

Hi,

Thank you for contacting us and I'd be happy to assist.

To use conditional output, based on the file's type/extension, you'll need a custom shortcode, that can return the file's extension ( i.e. pdf, xls etc ), from its URL.

This reply has a good example of such custom shortcode and its usage in the conditional output:

I hope this helps and please let me know if you need any further assistance around this.

regards,
Waqar
