Form field for file upload

    Dear EME developers and users,

    for a website that I need to maintain it is required that a user uploads a file (a signed GDPR) when subscribing to a new event. I’ve noticed that EME does not provide a form field or similar for file upload.

    Has anyone of you ever put a file upload field onto an EME event page? Such that the file can be uploaded by pressing the submit button (or maybe a dedicated “upload file” button)? Could anyone give me a quick hint how to achieve that or where to look?

    Many thanks in advance for your help,
    Alex

    Currently no file upload option … it is on my todo-list (like many others)

    Dear Franky,

    many thanks for your answer. I understand that this is not so trivial to implement. Anyway, I’m looking forward to this feature in a future version of EME! ??

    I’ve tried to put an upload form field from the “WordPress File Upload” plugin onto an EME event page. However, this did not work properly, because the behavior of the added “upload file” button somehow conflicted with EME’s “submit” button. Do you know if anyone has ever combined an upload form field from another plugin with EME in this way?

    Many thanks and best regards,
    Alex

    Even if the file uploaded, it would in no way be related to the rsvp form submit. So currently this is still not possible.

    Dear Franky,

    you are of course right, there would be no automatic relation. But I was hoping that somehow a WP plugin would allow me to save the uploaded file in a custom directory (and with a custom file name), so I can still relate the uploaded file to the submission. But maybe there is no such plugin …

    Best regards,

    hi,
    Plus one for this request.

    I want to have a file upload feature too.

    FYI: file upload will be in the next version! Files will be stored per booking, per person or per member depending on what it asked ??
    Per booking you will be able to provide a download link as well using a new placeholder called #_FILES.
