Select the type of files that you would like to allow visitors to upload.

Following are the formats that are supported:

  • .pdf

  • .jpg

  • .png

  • .doc

  • .docx

  • .ppt

  • .xls

  • .xslx

  • .csv

Settings:

Under settings you can configure the following;

Restrict file size: You can select the maximum file size from 1 MB to 10 MB that a visitor can upload from the drop down list.

Restrict number of uploads: You can define the maximum number of uploads from 1 to 10 allowed for the visitor.

Variables:

Variables are used to store the input received from the visitor, so you can reference it for later use.
