Hello guys,
i have created a simple app using devise and paperclip gem.
I created my model using devise and i created a seperate controller to
show what user has uploaded and generated the view file for it too.
i have uploaded .Doc file and in the browser i’m getting my table as
Name, Email and Document as per my show file, But Under Document i am
getting the url for the doc i uploaded
How can i view the doc file i uploaded and generate a download link of
that.

Please don’t use images to show code, include relevant code here,
provided it is only a few lines, or put it somewhere like pastebin to
make it available.
Whether a file is downloaded or opened in the browser when the user
clicks on a link to it depends on whether the browser has the right
plugins or not.
What happens if you click on the link to the document?

I believe you asked this question once before. What do you think in
your code the td with image_tag user.avatar.url does? (see now why not
to use a jpg, I have had to go and look at the image and re-type it
rather than copying). Look at the html in the browser and see what it
is.

I told you that when you asked before. Use link_to rather than
image_tag so you will make a link to the url not an image of the
document.

Start a new thread for that one. It is always best to ask one
question per thread or everything gets confused. First try googling
for the exact error message you get. If that does not help, or if you
have done it already then copy/paste the full error message in the new
thread and if it points to your code then also post that section of
code (just the lines leading up to the error).
