If this is the case you can go to the Media section and locate your pdf media item. Then on the properties / info tab you will find the Link to media which is something like /media/1089/privacycookiepolicy.pdf.
Then you can copy the url and paste it into your partial view.
Make it dynamic
This requires some more setup. A possible solution could be to add a property to your Home root node called Privacy Policy which is of type Media Picker. Then in the Home node you can select the prefered policy media item ( your pdf file ).
Then in your partial view you can lookup this property recursively:
var privacypolicy = Model.Content.GetPropertyValue<IPublishedContent>("privacyPolicyAlias", true);
Create a hyperlink to a pdf document
Hi everyone, I need to create a hyperlink to a pdf document within a partial view.
I have uploaded the pdf to the Umbraco Media folder, what is the syntax to find the pdf and link it to the hyperlink?
Any help or pointers much appreciated.
