Hello!
we are having problems when listing Private FileField using a view or a panel. The URL that cames out when you link to the file is wrong.

This is an example in our web (I´m sorry it´s in spanish):

Anyone knows what can we do to fix it?
Thanks!

Hi,
here is the modified version of module, that has slightly different approach,
path formatting overrides does in theme functions and not in _nodeapi.

By using this approach, file display, can be changed in `Display Fields Tab`, or in Views. (Generic files, path, url)

I've added a image formater too, but no imagecache support, but you `get the picture`, just override the theme that you need.

We can not use this approach on the module as it will interfere with the other normal files theming functions.

It is a very handy piece of code for custom sites, so thanks for sharing.

Hello,
I´m sorry but I am very new in all of this, and I don´t know much about Drupal and even any other program. Sometimes I don´t get the language (besides, as you can see, english is not my mother language)
What am I suppose to do?
If I run the file you gave me I will have no problem?

Thank you very much!

Ok, let me see what is wrong here.

Please, attach how did you configured filefield_private in the file system settings.

@Alan D.
i just wonder, is your comment relating to the use of phptemplate_ functions? because if it is, you can actually override those functions in a better, more compliant, way too.. and i think the theme_ approach is actually better, it covers more cases
for eg. right now you get a broken path on the node editing form, on the preview widget.. and views..

I've also semi reworked the module that should fix this, patch attached #1153448: A reworking of filefield private to simplify and support views better (not specific to views support, but more a general re-working to make it work smoother, so didn't use this issue).

#1153448: A reworking of filefield private to simplify and support views better has been commited to 2.x branch that should fix this, re-open if original maintainers want to fix this in 1.x also
