Accessing Media/Files outside the_content

0 Views

I’m building a site and each post has a PDF file attachment. Is there a way I can access that file outside the_content() on a single post page? I’d like to put the file attachment in a sidebar and not in the body of the post.

  1. Try the following code:

    $args = array(
'post_type' => 'attachment', 
'numberposts' => -1, 
'post_status' => null, 
'post_parent' => $post->ID 
); 
$attachments = get_posts( $args );
if ($attachments) {
    foreach ( $attachments as $attachment) {
        setup_postdata($attachment);
        the_title();
        the_attachment_link($attachment->ID, false);
        the_excerpt();
    }
}
