so simple and works good
Anyone at home?
by Hanno·1 year ago
I was thinking of buying the Pro version, but there are a few things that need to be clarified first.
I’ve sent an email to [email protected] – no reply. I sent an enquiry via the contact form – no reply. None of this inspires confidence.
So – this is the last chance for you to make money with me.
Doesnt work – rejects all files, only solution is to upgrade to Premium
by laurendev·1 year ago
I was looking for a simple plugin for users to upload a singular jpeg or PDF to my website. This plugin rejects every file that is uploaded. I tried uploading several different types (jpeg, PDF and .doc) and it rejected all of them, saying each one was suspicious. The way around this according to the plugin page is to set up the Quarantine feature. But of course the quarantine feature is only possible by upgrading to the Premium version, rendering this app completely useless unless you pay to upgrade.
Very great plugin! many thanks
by revayatejahad·1 year ago
Thank you very much for your great work! well done!
I have some issue with the plugin and It would be great if you help me with them as soon as possible.
first of all, I use the plugin inside Gravity form and I want the uploaded link could be saved with the form entry! I’ve tried different ways but didn’t come with the result! finally I just added the %pathfile% in the comment below when file successfully uploaded as a way to see the uploaded link but I want this path be saved some where with the form. but the link will disappears when we move to next page or next file upload!
secondly, in wordpress dashboard > uploaded files, it doesn’t show the file path with the domain name of ftp server but it shows the direct ftp address to the file which is not wanted!
thirdly, It would be great if the plugin asks the domain name and replace it with the ftp file address at the beginning of each file link.
lastly, it would be fantastic if the (uploaded files)’s links and names could be exported in an xlsx or csv file from wordpress dashboard > uploaded files.
Works like a charm
