Can’t Upload Certain Files

  • Hi, I seem to be having trouble uploading certain file types, I’e tried .txt and .pdf and they work fine, but I can’t get .docx to work, I’m not sure about there other ones. I’m just wondering if .doc and .docx are restricted? Here is my shortcode:

    [wordpress_file_upload singlebutton=”true” uploadpath=”” fitmode=”responsive” uploadpatterns=”*.txt,*.pdf,*.rtf,*.doc,*.docx,*.wpd,*.wps,*.odt” maxsize=”10″ placements=”filename+selectbutton/progressbar/message” uploadtitle=”” selectbutton=”Upload CV” uploadbutton=”Upload CV” notify=”true” notifyrecipients=”” notifymessage=”Dear Recipient,%n%%n% This is an automatic delivery message to notify you that a new file has been uploaded.%n%%n%Best Regards,%n%%n%”” attachfile=”true” medialink=”true”]

    Hi, doc and docx files are not restricted. They should normally be uploaded. Have you tried many docx files?

    Yeah every docx file I’ve tried has failed, regardless of the size.

    do the files have more than one dot (.) in their filename?

    I have the same problem.
    My problem is because the files that my clients send me have more than one dot (.) in the name.
    But I can’t ask for them to rename the files, because they send me like 10 files at once.
    I have the Pro version 3.9.4, is there any way that I can surpass this issue of the filenames with dots without rename the files?

    The page that I have the upload is: https://dinamicacalculos.agenciafenixweb.com.br/idocumentos/

    if you have the free version, just put the following code in your functions.php file:

    
if ( isset($GLOBALS["WFU_GLOBALS"]["WFU_WILDCARD_ASTERISK_MODE"]) ) $GLOBALS["WFU_GLOBALS"]["WFU_WILDCARD_ASTERISK_MODE"][3] = "loose";

    this should surpass this restriction

    Mine was the Pro version, but that line of code solved the problem.

    Thanks a lot!
    Have a nice day!
