Ive got a set of repeater fields which are

Select file - called file
Radio buttons - File type (depends on option this shows an image)

My code is

<?php
$child_posts = toolset_get_related_posts( get_the_ID(), 'document-link', array( 'query_by_role' => 'parent', 'return' => 'post_object' ) );
foreach ($child_posts as $child_post)
{ ?>

<div class="car-listing">
<h5><?php echo $child_post->post_title; ?></h5>
"$child_post->ID")); ?> ">
"$child_post->ID")); ?>">
post_title; ?>
</div>
<?php } ?>

The image and Title works fine.... however

This "$child_post->ID")); ?> "> prints the url like

hidden link">

On chrome I inspect the element:
hidden link">hidden link;

I need this to look like

hidden link"><img src="/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/file_pdf_download_icon-icons.com_68954.png">Referral vs Partner Programme summary

Hello and thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

The types_render_field function will return a repeater field results separated with comma(,) by default. Unless you define a different separator. Check this article it may help if you need to have HTML markup for the separator https://toolset.com/documentation/customizing-sites-using-php/displaying-repeating-fields-one-kind/#using-html-separators

Or you may use the PHP explode function to build an array from the results of the function hidden link

Note that you can use the output argument to get the raw URL

I hope this helps. Let me know if you still have any questions.

"read me...")); ?> "> And still hasnt worked..
" ")); ?> "> Didnt work either

Thanks

Can you try this instead:

<a href="<?php types_render_field("file", array("title" => "read me...", "output" => "raw")); ?> ">

If this does not help, please log in to this test site with the following URL and prepare an example of what you are building. Let me then integrate the link. hidden link

Hi

That would take a lot?

I need to download the toolset plugin, the theme template files and then create the post type etc..

Can I not send you credidentials for a dev site and send you a PHP of the page template?

Ive attached images on custom fields set up, the edit page bit, what it looks like on template, what the template code is and what the Chrome inspect element shows too.

We can do that too. Your next reply will be private to let you share credentials safely. ** Make a database backup before sharing credentials. **

Your code had two issues:
- It did not use the id attribute "id"=> $child_post->ID for the file field.
- It did not use echo to display the results on the page.

I fixed it with the following code:

	<a href="<?php echo types_render_field("file", array("id"=> $child_post->ID, "output" => "raw")); ?> ">
		<img src="<?php echo types_render_field( "file-type", array( "id"=> "$child_post->ID")); ?>">
		<?php echo $child_post->post_title; ?>
	</a>

Check the resulted links in this screenshot hidden link
