[TYPO3-dev] Generating a secure PDF download link in Fluid

[Mark Howells-Mead]

Hi all

After all that, the problem was that I hadn’t been using a FAL field in the backend. The solution is:

# BE
<flux:field.inline.fal name="downloadFile" multiple="FALSE" allowedExtensions="pdf" />

# FE
<v:variable.set name="downloadFile" value="{v:content.resources.fal(field: 'downloadFile') -> v:iterator.first()}"/>
<a class="downlow" download href="{downloadFile.url}">Download</a>

Cheers
Mark
