I am trying to upload pdf files to webform submission using REST API.

Since the Core File Upload functionality did not seem applicable for webform submission, I applied the patch from webform_rest module which would allow uploading files for webform submissions.

I have a react-native app that authenticates with Drupal via oAuth2 (simple_oauth, openidconnect) and do not use cookies. I use my access token for all rest calls, images and other files.

If I logout and login again, it w ...

I have 2 urls: www.example.com/somefile.pdf www.example.com/somefileNew.pdf

the first one no longer exists, i want to redirect this url to the new one. I tried to use the redirect module to no avail as the module adds the site language to the url (ex: www.example.com/**en**) since the website is multilingual.

how can i achieve this? i tried https://www.drupal.org/project/media_entity_file_redirec ...

I am trying to directly display/download the attached file when the Media link is reached. Main reason behind this is to avoid providing file path directly.

For example: if a user is visiting www.dummy.com/media/redcar_brochure/ then they should be able to view the www.dummy.com/sites/default/files/2021-10/redcar_brochure.pdf file directly in the attached media page. This will avoid clicking the file  ...

I made a custom module to create a PDF from a views page. This module depends on PDF using mPDF. I'm now trying to add a custom Google font. This should be the default font when generating a pdf. But I can't find out what I should do to have a custom font used in the PDF.

The mPDF documentation gives me an example of what I should do to load the custom font. I tried adding this in a custom functi ...

I'm migrating from Drupal 7 to Drupal 9 and am having an issue with my source files getting found with the upgrade_d7_file migration.

My site was built using Lightning Drupal distribution.

I had my public path as /sites/default/files. I did change the configuration path to /sites/<my_domain>/files in the middle of the project. From then, when I upload an image to a node it's taking the destination as /sites/<my_domain>/files as expected.

Problem:

I am running a Drupal 9 site and I expect my users to upload a lot of files with the ckeditor functionality. All of those files will be stored in a single folder.

I heard that this will cause performance issue once there are a lot of files. To avoid this, I would like to include a timestamp in to the path where to file will be stored, similar to what Drupal does to regular file uploads.

A standard filefield is used for uploads and functions perfectly for the usual set of mime types.

We recently extended the list of allowable extensions in the field definition to include .xlsm

Our xlsm files are code-signed and certified by a Microsoft-approved cert provider.

We can upload the xlsm files no problem, and logged-in users ...

I was working under the idea that i could use hook_file_download to grant access to private files; but it seems that this hook can only be used to restrict access to files, not to grant access.

I have seen suggestions of other hooks like file_access and file_access_alter; but none of these exist any more.

Starting from How do I create a file download URL? I've build a custom controller that allows users to download a PDF file.

I have been breaking my head on this issue for a few days now. Using Drupal 9.2.x, I am building a custom field module for a client that has multiple fields. I isolated the problem by only including a managed file field for now, because the other fields are not causing this issue.

I defined a managed file element in my Widget class, which extends WidgetBase:
