I went through this tutorial a few times trying to figure it out. I fixed the first problem of images not showing by setting Return Value in the image section in ACF to image URL.
2nd Problem is there are no links to the files that are added. I have tried changing the return value settings here with no luck.
How do I get a clickable link for the files?

Hi there,
May I ask are you using ACF Pro or the free version? The Pro version has the repeater field type which is used in that tutorial. The code would need to be modified to do individual course file fields.
You’ll find additional code examples in the ACF documentation:

OK then. Does your code and the field name for Course Files match?
For example, here’s a screenshot of the Course Files fields set up:
https://slack-files.com/T02SY781D-FBJVDPEMD-d7f868b756
and the sub fields:
https://slack-files.com/T02SY781D-FBH71NS8Y-a6017c0517
which match the code from the example:
<?php if(get_sub_field("course_files", $registration->event()->ID())): ?>
<ul>
<?php foreach(get_sub_field("course_files", $registration->event()->ID()) as $cf): ?>
<li><a href="<?php echo $cf['course_file']['url']; ?>"><?php echo $cf['course_file']['title'];?></a></li>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</ul>
<?php endif; ?>
and if everything matches, it results in the links for each file displayed:

Everything matches. I have gone through the tutorial twice and I’m having the same problem.

I ran through the tutorial on a new test site locally and the links work there – http://take.ms/f0otg
Can you link me to the thank you page of a test registration so I can view the output, please?
If you edit the course files on one of your events, click the pencil to edit the file details and check if the ‘URL’ field is set? – http://take.ms/lOCaa

Ok, your ‘Course file’ field is in the wrong section, it should be a sub field of the Course Files repeater, you have it it’s own field.
This is how the repeater should be set up – http://take.ms/cRknI
This is how yours is set up – http://take.ms/xOsa0
Your course file – http://take.ms/L74u9
You need to move the course file in to be a sub field of the repeater.
Take another look over the image from the tutorial here – https://eventespresso.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/acf-ee-add-new-curriculum.jpg
It’s a subtle difference when viewing the screen, but it means the code is looking in the wrong location.
