File type is not allowed

I'm having issues uploading PDF and docx files to forms. I was able to get a jpg uploaded.

The error I get is: "1. Sorry, Your uploaded file type is not allowed."

Help!

Hi dianascarrunz,

What setting do you have in the Upload Files action?

Bob

So I wasn't able to see an obvious place to edit upload setting in the Joomla interface but I was able to find my upload_files.php and the upload_file.ctp. Sorry, I'm a little new at this. 😀

Is this is what I should be looking for?

function load($clear){
		if($clear){
			$action_params = array(
				'files' => '',
				'array_fields' => '',
				'upload_path' => '',
				'forced_file_name' => '',
				'max_size' => '100',
				'min_size' => '0',
				'enabled' => 1,
				'safe_file_name' => 1,
				'max_error' => 'Sorry, Your uploaded file size exceeds the allowed limit.',
				'min_error' => 'Sorry, Your uploaded file size is less than the minimum limit.',
				'type_error' => 'Sorry, Your uploaded file type is not allowed.',
			);
		}
		return array('action_params' => $action_params);
	}

Hi dianascarrunz,

Please see this FAQ

Thank You that looks like its exactly what I need.

Seems like I might have a bigger problem.

Attached is what I see when I try to access the Easy Wizard Form. 😢

Hi dianascarrunz,

It looks as though someone has used DreamWeaver (or some other editor) on the site and it has created some extra files or folders in the /administrator/components/com_chronoforms/form_widgets. Please remove them.

All that should be there is a multi_upload sub-folder and an index.html file.

Hi,
I have a like problem: I have created an easy form http://www.associazionecomunali.it/site/index.php?option=com_chronoforms5&chronoform=upload (file field name:file2; For tag attachment:enctype="multipart/form-data"; file config: file2:png; Upload path:form-uploads/; Max file size: 2000; Min file size:1) but the problem is always there: extension not allowed and file isn't saved on server.

Thank you for an answer.
Daniele

Hi Daniele,

Please post a screenshot for your "File uploads" config, preferably in a new topic since the problem here is different!

Max
