Advice on file upload

judemac 09 Feb, 2011
I am requesting photographs to be sent via a submission form, only allowing for jpg's.
There are two questions I have, one probably very obvious, but I'm not certain of the answer :?

1.) What would you recommend the file sizes to be set at? Smallest - Largest
2.) How should this be typed in? 2mb - 2bytes

New to allowing uploads and very wary about doing it, so all help gratefully accepted.

Thanks Judy

Hi Judy,

Is this ChronoForms v3?

If so the ToolTip on the File Uploads tab shows you the syntax input_name:suffix1|suffix2{max-min} where max & min are integers in kb

e.g. file_1:jpg{5-0}

Hi Bob,

Ref: V3.2.0

I have- file_6:jpg,{20000000-200}in the File Uploads, but when I test the form comes back with the file is too big. I'm testing it with a very small image that shouldn't cause any problems.

Head scratching stage, run out of fingernails!

Thanks,
Judy

Hi Judy,

The comma doesn't belong there and the sizes are in kb so thats saying 20gb max - 200kb minimum.
