phpwcms Support Forum

hi ppl..

i'm new here and i want to say that phpwcms roxx..

but i miss something.. a file upload function
i'm talking about the most common files like
.gif, .jpg, .png, .txt, .rtf, .doc, .pdf, .zip, .rar, .xls and .pub

there should also be a way for the uploader to add his/her name to the upload

this would be a great function to add..

thx everyone

Hi and welcome

uploading of Files is not supported by phpWCMS for Front-Users cause there is no User/Right-Mnagaement for Frontend-Users. Only Backend-Users can upload Files.

xyncro,

It depends on what you are trying to do, but you can upload files using a form, as I did here - http://www.emergentmediagroup.com/rfp_upload.phtml

This allows files of only allowable extension to be uploaded to a specified folder and/or attached to an e-mail that is sent to the admin.

hi ben..

yes..! it's something like this i'm looking for..

could this not only concern a couple of common files in general..?

is this your code/change or where can i get it..?
is it free?

i could very well be interested in the whole rfp module you have there..

thx so much

This is done using the 'email contact form' content part, that has been available since version 1.1.9, I believe. You will need to pay me at least $5,000 US if you want to use it, though.

Take a look at this link -
http://www.phpwcms-docu.de/e-mail_contact_form.phtml

The important part is in the 'value' section of the table:

- file
max. file size: maxlength="10000000"
as attachment: attachment="1"
what kind of attachment: accept="text/*"
out of which folder: folder="content/form"
exclude files:
exclude="php,asp,php3,php4,php5,aspx,cfm,js"

..thx ben..

..for pointing out what could be used
i'll take a closer look at the info you sent me..

thx once again..
