Description
Hello,
I have just get it to work with my site (thanks to prior support of the uploading)
Now I know that I can download and view the PDF by using the URL format: mydomain.com/events/fillpdf?fid=[fid]&nid=[nid]
However I would also like to know if there is a way to add this link to a tab attached to the node so it looks like the Edit tab for a node?
Maybe views can help with this?
Thank you,
Leon

Not views. Add a small custom module and write a hook_menu() function. For some reason I can't get it to work, but I'll come back to it this weekend:
function YOURMODULE_menu(){$items=array();
$items['node/%/pdf'] = array(
'title' => 'Download PDF',
'page callback' => 'drupal_goto',
'page arguments' => array('fillpdf?nid='.arg(2).'&fid='.<<YOUR_FID>>),
'type' => MENU_LOCAL_TASK,
'weight' => 100,
);
return $items;
}

Hello lefnire,
Thanks for your reply, it sounds good to me.
I am new to Drupal and have very limited understanding to PHP and drupal functions.
Please guide me how to implement the code.
Thank you,
Leon
