   I created this custom field:

   [Material]
   type = file
   label = Please upload PDF
   size = 30
   relation = true
   mediaLibrary = true
   mediaPicker = true
   mediaRemove = true
   multipleButton = true
   multiple = true

   I want to be able to upload a PDF in the admin and display it in a post. I am echoing the attribute with the following code, and all it does is output a number 103. So I know I am doing something wrong here, but I'm still a novice PHP guy. I am also having a problem with the checkbox's and arrays. The output just prints "array".

   <?php if(isset($attr['Material']) && !empty($attr['Material'])){
   	echo '<div class="instructor">',$attr['Material'], '</div>';
   }?>

   I should also note that I can not delete the file after it's already been uploaded unless I delete the file from the library, i.e. the mediaRemove button is not working properly.

   Figured out my own problem so I wanted to post the solution incase anyone else has this issue. I was not properly calling the file. Make sure to change the attribute "Material" to whatever your attribute is called within the Template Content section of your Template.

   <?php if(isset($attr['Material']) && !empty($attr['Material'])){?>
   <a href="<?php
      global $post;
      $material = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'Material', true);
      echo wp_get_attachment_url($material);
      ?>">Download</a>
   <? } ?>
