No file with email

Naj 16 Apr, 2022
Good day,

I have created a form in Joomla with Chronoforms 5.
In this form I offer the possibility to upload a file.

The operation is completely satisfactory, only I run into 1 small problem and I can't figure out how to solve this, maybe someone can help me with this?

It concerns the following:

when uploading a file it is neatly placed on the server in the folder
However, I would like it if this would also be sent with the E-mail as an attachment and that is not happening now.

My question is: How can I ensure that the uploaded file is also sent with an email.

Regards,
Naj Kwin

Hi Naj,

Please make sure that the Files Upload action is before the Email action in the form On Submit event. Then it should be enough to add the name of the file upload element in the Attachments box of the Email settings.

Alternatively, you can include a download link or links in the email body - that can be helpful if there are large files attached.

Hi Bob,
First very happy Easter.

In my form I have the Upload before the email.
The files are therefore neatly stored on the server, but are not sent with the Email.

I suspect I've got something wrong. But I can't figure out where.

Do I have to add an email to the field "On success" at Files Upload or do I have to search for it in the email handler; because I have the same in "Attachment files" as in the Files config with the Files Upload.

I love to hear from you
