* Hi there.
I’m using HTML Content to add a button to download PDF but now I realized
that PDF differs from package to package. The code I’m using inside is: PDF
Link to pdf
we use is saved inside ACF field, and I have the package id inside fieldname2.
So I can target ACF dependent on that fieldname. Can you help me with the equation?
Please 🙂

* Hello [@hrvan](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hrvan/),
* I’m sorry, but I don’t know what do you mean with ACF field. I don’t understand
the structure of your form and fields.
* Best regards.

* By ACF I mean advanced custom fields. They are stored in table wp_postmeta. I’m
importing a lot of data in this form with them but now I need to find a solution
for this button. Any ideas?

* Hello [@hrvan](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hrvan/),
* If you need pre-fill some fields with data stored in the wp_postemta table, the
correct would be use the set of “DS” fields (the “DS” fields are distributed
with the Developer and Platinum versions of the plugin, they read their values
from external data-sources like a database or CSV file).
* For example, assuming you have a custom field called: my-field, and you want
use its value into the form whose id=1
* – First add a new attributed in the forms shortcode passing the id of post:
* `[CP_CALCULATED_FIELDS id="1" current_post="123"]`
* Note: all attributes defined through the form’s shortcode different to id, are
converted in javascript variables with global scope, so, the previous shortcode
creates in the page the javascript variable current_post with the post id, in
this case the 123
* – Now, insert for example a “Line Text DS” field, select the database as the
datasource to use, and enter as the query to populate the field:
* ```
SELECT meta_value as value FROM {wpdb.postmeta} WHERE meta_key="my-field" AND post_id=<%current_post%>
```
* and that’s all, the field will be filled with the value entered through the custom
field: my-field, read directly from the database.

* Hello.
This is how I was using it before for any other occasions. But the thing
is this needed to be a button I can click. If I use an Line Text DS for this
is it possible it can be clicked? I don’t think so… Through ACF I’m parsing the
link to a PDF like [http://www.somewebsite.com/images/somepdf.pdf](http://www.somewebsite.com/images/somepdf.pdf)
I’m using this on my packages, and I would like to pass this inside CFF. If I
somehow can trigger Line Text DS over the class or something this wouldn’t be
a problem for me to design it latter with css.

* Hello,
* If you are populating a “hidden DS” field with the absolute URL to the PDF file(
[http://…](http://…);), for example, assuming it is the fieldname1
field, the code to enter as the onclick event of the button, would be as simple
as:
* ```
window.open(jQuery('[id*="fieldname1_"]').val());
```
* I’m sorry, but this question is not related directly with our plugin, it is a
general question of javascript. If you need additional help implementing your
project I can offer you a custom coding service from my private website:
