Contact Form 7- File Attachments Upload Issue

  • Hi there,

    I hope someone can help me. I’m having issues with the file attachments – they only work for up to 6-8 files per form. My contact form (“Photos”) has 15. Once I upload “too many photos” – the form does not process them, and does not give any error messages. From what I read, I believe there is an issue with the temporary memory storage limit, as it cannot handle a large volume of files. But I do not know how to fix it, as I not at expert in WP.

    Any advise would be greatly appreciated!

    Thanks,

    Daria

  • Hi Daria,

    I am facing a similar issue. I have changed the limit to upload a file to 50MB. Files less than 1MB work fine. The files larger than 1MB don’t throw an error in the form, but when I try to access those files, they are not available.

    My max_upload_limit in the php.ini file is 200M. I also believe it could be the cache or temporary memory storage that might be giving trouble.

    Did you find a solution to this?

    So I figured out that MYSQl max_allowed_packet limit is 1MB. Simple method is to change it but this can be trivial as the production server might be handled by the client.

    The ideal method is to use the cfdb_form_data action and save the file on the directory. Hence, saving the file url on the database, so when you want to access the file, you have a link to it.

    Please follow the example here https://cfdbplugin.com/?page_id=794
