where do i give cfdb7_access access to the team? there are no settings inside CFDB7 in the dashboard.

Sorry, can you explain more? Not sure exactly what you meant?

Basically I want all admin roles to have access to everything. And, Im creating a user for a team member but only want them to see the Contact Form 7 Database (and be able to view, export etc).

For anyone wanting to know the answer, it’s actually easy. While most forms you’d want the user to upload a file to attach and send along with the form fields, there are always weird circumstances (where mine fit in).

All you need to do is go into the Contact section under contact form 7
Go to the mail Tab
Under File Attachments you’ll just list out the media you want to auto-send with your form.

So, in my case I uploaded 2 PDF’s to my media gallery.
And then in the file attachments section, I put:

uploads/2021/11/name.pdf
uploads/2021/11/other-name.pdf

Hope that helps!

Thanks @glenwpcoder — left a glowing review yesterday!

Thanks so much! your plugin is incredible! Very impressive!

@glenwpcoder – wanted to see if it was possible to change the upload folder from /wp_dndcf7_uploads/ to something else ?

Thanks @glenwpcoder.

For the password security on the folder, do you recommend any specific plugins? Assuming i’d need to protect this folder right? /wp_dndcf7_uploads/ ?

And, finally, is there a way to rename that folder to something else if i got into the plugin code, just in the sense of white labeling it?

Thanks for all your help! This plugin is incredible. Have used it for a few clients.

@glenwpcoder — i see now that the [tag] (if it’s a link) needs to go into the actual main field with the rest of the other non file attachment fields, so ignore my previous question.

Let me know your thoughts about security of files, etc. I see that if they are attached as links that the files can be accessed via the URL too, whereas when they are attachements, they can’t so there’s more security.

Trying to see what the best option would be for securing these files so they could never be accessed except to the email recipient

Thanks @glenwpcoder – i figured that much.

For some reason though when i put the tag in the file attachments AND i marked it to “Send as Link” it did not send thru the file (as an attachment OR a link in the email results).

Also, how do you go about grouping the files by their name? I have an extensive form as mentioned with around 40 different forms grouped into categories (“Tax Forms” with lets say 20 form uploads and some have the ability to upload 20 files for example, “Misc Forms” etc.. )

Security question:
How secure is it sending files thru this? For example, we’re sending banking info, etc. I know the .htaccess blocks direct access to the URL (for example, if i see the file from where it collects it in Flamingo or CF7DB. Do you think an SSL cert plus the .htaccess is enough for someone not to ever gain access to the files?

thanks @glenwpcoder – that worked ! I thought that was how you did it, but i read online somewhere, or in the docs that people were using 1mb or similar so i thought it may have been a new update.

@abwaita thanks – I actually tried to write the developer with a support ticket but i never hear back. Will try again there. Thanks

@jules-colle Hi Jules – wondering if you could provide some more assistance.

I had it like this in the FORM part:

[radio inquiry-type “General Inquiry|[email protected]” “Career Inquiry|[email protected]”]

In the TO, I put [inquiry-type]

– it sent the mail to the correct person, however in the “Inquiry Type” result in the email, instead of putting “Career Inquiry” it just put [email protected]

Using CF7 Conditional, I can’t seem to get it to work with the radio button feature as wouldn’t i need to seperate the input for the radio into 2 groupings in order for it to work?

@jules-colle

So, I have for my radio button options
General Inquiry
Careers Inquiry

So, in the “TO” Field under “MAIL” tab, would I just do:

[general-inquiry-selected][email protected][/general-inquiry-selected][careers-inquiry-selected][email protected][/careers-support-selected]

basically, the [general-inquiry-selected] part.. does that need to match the name of the radio button option?

@jules-colle thanks Jules – does this work for radio buttons though? It looks like the demo is just for the [select] or drop down selections

For example, in this case i have “General Inquiry” as one radio button and “Career Inquiry” as the second one, both in the same radio selector:

[radio radio-buttons default:1 “General Inquiry” “Careers Inquiry”]

Hi Jules,
Thanks for your help on the thread above. I have a related question.

Im creating a new form where i’m using radio buttons like this:

[radio inquiry-type id:inquiry-type class:inquiry-type select one use_label_element “General Inquiry” “Career Inquiry”]

I have Contact Form 7 – Conditional Fields installed as a plugin, but wondering what i need to do in this instance so that

– if someone selects the radio button General Inquiry, it emails [email protected]
– if someone selects the radio button Career Inquiry, it emails [email protected]

What would the markup be in the TO field under the MAIL tab
AND
do I need to setup something under the CONDITIONAL tab? When i go to the conditional tab, i see “select group” as the first option but there is no GROUP to select since the radio buttons appear in the same section.

Thanks for your help!
