Can you use the full path to the file on the server? I don't think (although I could be wrong) that wp-content is in the root directory of your web server. It should be a path more like /usr/local/apache/mysite/wordpress/wp-content/ etc. You are saying that wp-content is at the very root. I don't think that's correct, but I could be wrong.</p> <p>I haven't had a chance to look at that filter in depth, but it's also possible it's looking for a URL, so something more like <a href="http://www.example.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/digital-marketing-checklist-from-pv.pdf" rel="nofollow">http://www.example.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/digital-marketing-checklist-from-pv.pdf</a> - can you try that as well? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/attach-a-file-from-the-media-library#post-151765 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 16:23:27 +0000 danromanchik 151765@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I've just started using GravityForms, and am puzzled about how to attach a file to a user notification. I've been to the page describing gform_user_notification_attachments, but the example there is for attaching files just uploaded. What I want to do is to attach files that are in the media library. </p> <p>I created the following bit of code and inserted it into functions.php:</p> <pre><code>add_filter(&quot;gform_user_notification_attachments_1&quot;, &quot;add_attachment&quot;, 10, 3); function add_attachment($attachments, $lead, $form){ $attachments = array(); $attachments[] = &#39;/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/digital-marketing-checklist-from-pv.pdf&#39;; return $attachments; }</code></pre> <p>Unfortunately, this isn't doing what I was hoping it would do, i.e. attach this file to the user notification. Do you have any idea what I'm doing wrong here?</p> <p>Also, I'd like to add some logic to download different files based on the value of one of the form fields. Can you give me a hint as to how to do that?</p> <p>Thanks, Dan </p>
