Hi,

Apologies for the inconvenience.

This functionality is already available. After selecting the File field, you will find options in the addon settings that allow you to control how the file link is displayed:

Using the Link Label option, you can show a custom text with an icon rather than displaying the full file URL.

Additionally, could you please clarify what you mean by the field being repeatable? Are you referring to adding multiple files within the same field, or something else? This will help me better understand your requirement.

Hi,

Thank you for your clarification.

Unfortunately, showing custom text together with the file name in the Link Label is not currently possible. The Link Label field only supports displaying a single custom text.

Regarding the repeatable / multiple file upload, there is currently no built-in option to upload multiple attachments in a single file field (drop zone).

As a workaround, you will need to create multiple File fields and use them to attach several files to an item.

Thank you for your understanding.

Your Dynamic content has possibility to create Directories BUT we need to implement each file separately. Imagine how i should explain to my customer . He has between 10 and 50 files per project, need to add tags and have a nice view of them ! like Dropfiles does... but impossible to implement as custom field of SPPB !

Hi,

Thank you for your detailed explanation. I understand the use case and why a multi-file upload / drop zone field would be helpful for projects that contain many documents.

However, at the moment we do not have plans to implement this functionality in the Dynamic Content file field.

Regarding your question about documentation for custom development, unfortunately it is not possible for third-party developers to extend it in that way. The Dynamic Content functionality is built using React, and the components used in the builder are compiled and minified into JavaScript when distributed.

During this process, the source code is bundled and minified, meaning it is optimized and compressed into a production JavaScript file. This removes the readable structure and internal references of the original source code. We also apply this process for security reasons, as we do not want the full source code of our component to be publicly exposed or easily reused by others to create clones of the component.

Because of this architecture, the internal component logic is not accessible or extendable by third-party developers, and we do not provide documentation for modifying these internal React components.

At the moment, the only available approach would be to create multiple File fields and attach the documents individually for each item.

Thank you for your understanding.

Thanks for explication. I just hope you realize how much customers you will loose with such a decision. Change that mind of thinking, look at concurrence and your team will see the potential they loose.

Hi,

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We completely understand your concern and appreciate you taking the time to explain your use case.

At the moment, the functionality you described is not available, and as mentioned earlier, there are no current plans to implement a multi-file upload / drop zone field for Dynamic Content. However, feedback like yours is valuable, and I will make sure to forward your suggestion to the project manager for consideration in future discussions.

We understand that different projects may require more advanced document management features, and your input helps us better understand these needs.

Thank you again for your feedback and understanding.
