Sitecore verison - 9.0.2 Glass version - 5.0.6.0

We are trying to use Glass @RenderLink to render a pdf media item, it's generating anchor tag with below path

/sitecore/media-library/site-content/xxx/your-account/xxx/xxx/pdfFileName

Which is going to page not found as expected. I believe it should render as below:

/~/media/site-content/xxx/your-account/xxx/xxx/pdfFileName.ashx

Looks like Glass issue, am I right?

Is there an alternative way to render pdf link, our cshtml is a Glass View rendering.

Code Example view.cshtml:

@inherits Glass.Mapper.Sc.Web.Mvc.GlassView<xxx.Data.GlassModel.sitecore.templates.xx.Journeys.Components.Ixxx>

@Editable(x=>x.Heading)
@RenderLink(x=>x.LinkName)
@Editable(x=>x.Description)

Glass model is generated by TDS and the Link field in the model as below:

[SitecoreField(Ixxxx.LinkNameFieldName)]
Link LinkName{get; set;}

  • Can you add a code example of how you are rendering the link? And how your model is setup?

  • What type of field is your LinkName field?

  • @DheerajPalagiri how did you select your media item? Did you use a Media Link or an Internal Link? I've sometimes found one to be problematic when creating links, where the other works fine (can't remember which is which off the top of my head).
