By "attach a file to email", what I mean is attaching a file from the server to the email. This can be sent to your team as a notification with PDF instructions on how to follow up on the new lead. Or you can attach a PDF to the email sent to the person who filled out your form with more information about how you can help them. I show you how to add files from the media library and from on your server, outside of the media library.

Thanks for the video Bjorn, always a treat to see you in the inBox! I imagine it would be relatively simple to share a link to a file that is on the cloud, like on OneDrive, Google Drive or something similar, provided we created the link with the proper settings (view only) to be able to send it? This way, I could send a large file to anyone I want and not create storage problems on the server? I have a 2 GB ceiling quota for my site, so that's something I need to manage carefully.

@wplearninglab 5 жыл бұрын

Hi Marc, Sorry for the delay. We were away for the Labor Day Weekend. Good to hear from you again, it's been a while :) What you describe will work: instead of "attaching" very large files you just have the link in the email.

Great turtorial! I have one question though. In the auto response e-mail I want to attach a white paper they did not submit. In WordPress I upload the 3mb file and follow the rest of your explanation in the video. However when I test the contact form the white paper which is automatically sent is not 3mb but 600kb. Most of the white paper is still in good quality however the logo's of my company are not. Do you have a possible solution for this?

Hello! I have a question. I have a job board site. And I want, when I receive an application form with a pdf file attached to it, I want the file to go to the specific media library folder. I don't know how to make that path. Thanks in advance. PS. Your tutorials are great! :)

@wplearninglab 5 жыл бұрын

To get files to show up in the media library in WordPress you have to upload them through the website. If someone uploads a PDF through a form, you can put the file into a folder in the right directory, but it won't show in the WP media library. Or did I misunderstand what you're asking?

@mirkicica 5 жыл бұрын

@@wplearninglab I didn't write the question right :) So I have added a plugin that divides the media library to separate folders. So I'm having trouble defining the correct path when someone uploads their CV. I have it on my mail, but I wanted the files to be organized in the media library automatically. I hope that I've explained it better :)

HI Prasad, Thanks for being a big fan! I appreciate it :) Where does the PDF go after it's created? Sent to your client or sent to the person who filled out the form? This will require quite a bit of custom coding and will take some time. It's not easy solution. I don't have a What's App number, sorry.
