03 / Website use cases
Where to use current post attachments
Posts often come with files: a recipe card, a worksheet, a price list or a manual. Linking each one by hand means editing the post again whenever a file changes. Current post attachments lists the files attached to the post in the Media Library, with their type and size so visitors know what they are downloading, leaves out the featured image, and can show documents only.
Schools and clubs
List worksheets, forms and newsletters.
Product guides
Attach manuals and data sheets to a post.

08 / Common setup problems
Troubleshoot current post attachments
Check these settings if the published page behaves differently from the editor.
Why is my file not listed?
It is not attached to this post. Attach it in the Media Library, or upload it while editing the post.
Why is the featured image missing?
It is left out by default. Turn off Leave out the featured image.
Why does a PDF open instead of downloading?
Turn on Download instead of opening. Files served from another domain may still open.
Why is there no size?
WordPress has no stored size for that file and the file could not be read.
Current post attachments plugin questions
Does it need Elementor Pro?
No. It works with the free version of Elementor.
Does it upload files?
No. It lists files already attached in the Media Library.
Can it show only documents?
Yes. Choose Documents and other files to leave images out.
Are file names readable?
Each file shows its Media Library title, or its file name when it has none.
Does it need JavaScript?
No. The list is part of the page as it is built.
