 * Hi there,
 * I have a POD that has a couple of fields of type “file”.
 * Now, using the visual block editor to create my single-item template, how do 
   I make clickable links to the files? Using the “Pods field value” block I only
   get the raw URL, but how do I turn this into a clickable link?

 * `Field Value` block outputs a value of a field without extras.
 * In the case of wrapping a URL in a link, instead use a `Single Item` block, which
   allows setting a template, such as:
 *     ```wp-block-code
       <a href="{@file_field_name._src}">    {@file_field_name.post_title}</a>
       ```
   
 * …which would output a link to the URL of the original file, using the name of
   the file as the text for the link.
