Yuki CreditAttribution: Yuki commentedNothing has changed after changing the code even clearing the cached data...the requirement is the file should be there but there will be a separate description field of that file and If I write any url over in that description it should link to that url.

quicksketchOverride the theme_filefield_file() function in your template.php file within your theme if you'd like to use HTML in your descriptions. I'm closing this issue after lack of activity.

pacome CreditAttribution: pacome commentedI also need do to it, but i don't know -neither find- with what to override the theme_filefield_file() function to allow html in the description field (i'm not talking PHP fluently).
The final use would be to have a text area with a limited ckeditor profile activated, allowing people to select custom fonts, inserting links etc..
Any help about the overriding for html & text area would be gratefully appreciated!
thx

quicksketchThe FileField queue isn't really the place for instruction on theming, see this handbook page on getting started with overriding theme functions: http://drupal.org/node/457740
