# [Plugin: Flutter] url for uploaded file

 * I’m working with the Flutter plugin by FreshOut. I’ve create a custom write panel,
   then inside that panel a custom field for ‘file’. I’ve had no problem uploaded
   PDF files on the backend.
 * Now I’m trying to figure out how to echo the path / URL to the file that will
   appear on the post.
    The field is called ‘menu’ and I’m using this function `
   <?php echo get('menu'); ?>`
 * But it returns nothing…

 * I’m having the same issue: I’d like to have the file name of the uploaded PDF
   become a link to download it. I can get the info to print to the page using:
 *     ```
       <?php if ( get_post_meta($post->ID, 'PDF-Download', true) ) { ?>
                       <div class="curate_data"><?php echo "DOWNLOAD <em>as</em> PDF: "; echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'PDF-Download', $single=true); ?></div><!-- /publisher -->
       				<?php } ?>
       ```
   
 * but this of course is only a strong of text returned, how can one turn it into
   a link?

 * `<a href="<?php echo get('menu'); ?>"><?php echo get('menu'); ?></a>` or something
   like `<a href="<?php echo get('menu'); ?>">Download File</a>`
