where is the description in the file field? [explaned] was created by hede

I try to display downloads in an article this way:

Description 1 | Download Button
Description 2 | Download Button
Description 3 | Download Button

The Description ... shoulde be the one entered during upload. How do I have to setup the [ file ] field to make this happen? Thanks.

When you click to upload a NEW file is it not a description field there?

Like the our support? (for a bug-free FC, despite having a long list of functions) Like the features? Like the ongoing development and future commitment to FLEXIcontent?

Thanks. But my problem is not to enter the desc but to display it on the front end. There is no option in the field [ file ] saying "display description: y/n".

The FILE FIELD does not have description we have requested in the past.

Since you are going to change consider adding 2 check-boxs in the configuration:

Show file name: yes / no
Show description: yes / no

Right now the file forces to show the file name and I have clients that make this:

Thanks in advance.
