Form with uploads gives error when no uploads are selected

Wauw,

Just started with V6. It was a little bit getting used to, but it looks awesome. Great work.

I managed to make a form with multiupload option. Everything works fine, except when you do NOT select files to upload, than the response is:

The file extension is not permitted.

I don't get that.

Also it looks like I'm forced to upoad the files to the website to be able to attach them. Is that necassary or am I missing something.?

I see I posted 4 times. That's becasue I get an error message after submit. Didnot reealise it was posted. Sorry.

Error: 1054 - Unknown column 'Article.word2' in 'order clause'

Hi gasoline,

Hi gasoline,

Also it looks like I'm forced to upload the files to the website to be able to attach them.

Yes, that is necessary - what actually happens is that PHP uploads the files, and saves them to a temporary folder and makes the info available to ChronoForms which then renames and relocates them.

If saving them on your server is a problem, you could delete them after the email is sent, or perhaps better use a cron job on the server to run every few days and delete any files more that a couple of days old.

Hi GreyHead,
The suggestion to use a cronjob makes sense. Usefull tip, I'll implement that.

Thanks, (from another GreyHead😉)
