    Hi,

    It is possible to use the file upload and save it as a featured image. But is it possible that a PDF or DOC (docx) file is saved and the url is displaying to the content field?

    Kind Regards,

    yes, that exactly what happens when you map a file field to a meta field

    @aurovrata the file gets automatically saved in the medialibary then or on a other place on the server? Because normally the file gets deleted of the server.

    sure, the plugin uses WP core functionality to upload/store the file, namely the function wp_upload_bits(), which has an inbuilt filter to modify the path.
