Re: [northernpenguin] Display Upload Files - DragSortOrder

Hi Ragi,

So what you need to do is start by only getting the first record from your record set:

example:

list($newsRecords, $newsMetaData) = getRecords(array(
'tableName' => 'news',
));

$newsRecord = @$newsRecords[0]; //retrieve the first record from the record set

Next, if you were able to get a record, attempt to get the first upload from that record.

example:

<?php if (@$newsRecord['uploads']); ?>
<?php $upload = $newsRecord['upload'][0]; // get first upload ?>

// output $upload here

<?php endif ?>

Hope this helps

Hi Jason: Thank you, it got me on the right path, but I am having a minor issue. The output prints twice for some reason. I've played with it, but I can't get it to print only once. Here is my code:
<?php foreach ($albatrossRecords as $record): ?>

<?php foreach ($record['file_upload'] as $upload): ?>

<?php if (@$albatrossRecord['file_upload']): ?>
<?php $upload = $albatrossRecord['file_upload'][0]; // get first upload ?>

Latest Issue: <a href="<?php echo $upload['urlPath'] ?>"><?php echo $upload['info1'] ?></a>

<?php endif ?>


<?php endforeach ?>
<?php endforeach ?>

Hi,

Do you have multiple records outputting, or the same upload showing up more than once? If it's the latter, try removing your nested foreach look like this:

<?php foreach ($albatrossRecords as $record): ?>

<?php if ($record['file_upload']): ?>
<?php $upload = $record['file_upload'][0]; // get first upload ?>

Latest Issue: <a href="<?php echo $upload['urlPath'] ?>"><?php echo $upload['info1'] ?></a>

<?php endif ?>

<?php endforeach ?>

Hope this helps
