ParticipantCustom post type contains one custom field which is a url hosted off site. The icon and title display in the posts module of elementor but when I try to open the url its linked to, I get page not found.
I've searched but not found this issue.
Please advise.
February 24, 2022 at 2:57 AM #34083ParticipantNote, I've just joined the fb group to try and find other suggestions. Just tried resaving permalinks but that hasn't solved the problem.
February 24, 2022 at 3:06 AM #34084ParticipantSorry, after resaving permalinks the title of the Custom post is visible but the custom field "url" is not.
February 24, 2022 at 3:26 AM #34085ParticipantOk, so as I try to figure this out I realize I'm not asking the right question.
The custom post type I've created contains a heading and a url link to a pdf hosted on MEGA.
How can I open the external PDF when I click on the custom post type?
Thanks

ModeratorHi,
You can follow this topic to know how to output the field URL with a button https://support.metabox.io/topic/using-url-field-type/
February 25, 2022 at 2:18 AM #34121ParticipantWhere am I supposed to put the code?
Why have a url field if I have to use code somewhere else?
At this time not even a URL appears on the front end.
It doesn't make sense.
February 25, 2022 at 9:38 AM #34127ModeratorHi,
Please follow this documentation to know how to output the field value https://docs.metabox.io/displaying-fields/
The URL field helps you to add different URLs for each post instead of adding hard code to the template file.
