It's not ideal for use as you described for having some sort of library of files that users can access and edit. It's not something Gravity Forms would be ideal for. I'm not sure if there is an existing plugin solution that would meet your needs as i'm not familiar enough with available solutions to recommend one. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/upload-features-of-gravity-forms-questions#post-32187 Wed, 10 Aug 2011 08:37:27 +0000 Terence Milbourn 32187@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>The need I have for Gravity Forms is potentially a membership document control issue, but less to do with selling access to content, and more to do with keeping documentation created by or uploaded from members (which is why I found this topic), so they are kept exclusively for them to create, read and edit, albeit they are created from a template we provide, and for other members to have limited read but not write access, via an account related security code. </p> <p>So that is documents they upload or create, using our templates, which need to be secure from any other user or search engines, except those registered users who have knowledge of an access code or account code, for the originating user's account. There could in this application also be the scenario in which some files would need to be read by a third party with the account access code, while others would not be visible or able to be accessed at all to third-parties. </p> <p>Could you give me some idea of how I might be able to handle this using Gravity Forms or would you say, from what I have described so far, that is an application better suited to, say S2, Wishlist, your User Registration plugin, or some other membership plugin, or perhaps even a combination of both a membership plugin and Gravity Forms. In which case, which membership plugin would you recommend to work better with Gravity Forms in this situation? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/upload-features-of-gravity-forms-questions#post-32139 Tue, 09 Aug 2011 15:48:09 +0000 Carl Hancock 32139@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>The File Upload field is currently a standard PHP file upload. There is no progress bar displayed and it doesn't support multiple files at once, you need a field for each file. </p> <p>The files are uploaded to your wp-content/uploads folder in a folder created by Gravity Forms to store the file. They are then accessible via the entry details or entry notifications for that form entry. </p> <p>There is also an API hook that allows you to change the file upload location if you want to customize where files go.</p> <p>A progress bar feature will be added when we implement a multi-file upload capability in a future release. It will probably be v1.7 or v1.8 that this is introduced. We also plan on creating add-ons to allow uploading files to Dropbox and Amazon S3 in the future. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/upload-features-of-gravity-forms-questions#post-32138 Tue, 09 Aug 2011 15:42:15 +0000 avmore 32138@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I wanted to know what the upload features of Gravity forms are? I really think you should have some demo products clearly available for use on your website to show what it can do. </p> <p>I'm particularly interested if you have a "upload progress" bar or percentage bar of some sort for file upload feedback.</p> <p>Thanks! </p>
