When you have a post image field and a regular file upload field in the same form, Gravity Forms tries do upload the regular upload field twice, causing it to fail.<br /> I will address the issue and let you know when I have an update.<br /> Anybody else with this issue, please email me at alex[at]rocketgenius.com and I will send you the fix for this issue when I have it. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/failed-temporary-file-could-not-be-copied#post-5669 Fri, 21 May 2010 18:20:40 +0000 David Smith 5669@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I did some additional testing and was able to recreate this issue (and another strange one) on my own dev server:</p> <p><a href="http://dev.ounceoftalent.com/?page_id=3" rel="nofollow">http://dev.ounceoftalent.com/?page_id=3</a></p> <p>Submit the page and you will see a print_r of the <strong>$entry</strong> array, the <strong>$_FILES["input_1"]</strong> array, and the <strong>$_FILES["input_2"]</strong> array.</p> <p>Note the strange value being returned for $entry[1]: "http://dev.ounceoftalent.com/wp-content/uploads/gravity_forms/1/2010/05/zrage3.jpg|:|zrage|:||:|"</p> <p>I'm running WP 3.2.9 and GF 1.3.12.
