   The $cf7->posted_data parameter only has file names. Use $cf7->uploaded_files instead, as it is an array of {field name => file path}. So when the field name is 'file', you can get the file path by $cf7->uploaded_files["file"].

   @ emile13

   Hello,

   Is this correct? Your code is sending the email and uploaded file notification to the email recipient but also the file is being uploaded to a permanent directory?

   Can you please explain the process? I would like to set this up for myself.

   Thank you

   ...

   Are uploaded images going into a static folder though? If so, how do you have that set up?

   I use this code to move my uploaded files into the uploads folder before cf7 gets chance to delete them. I also add a random string to the start of the filename so that there is almost no risk of duplicated file names.

   function update_event(){
       $random = date(DATE_ATOM, mktime(0, 0, 0, 7, 1, 2000)).rand(0,10000);
   
       $eventImgClean = "/".$random.str_replace("/home/website/public_html/wp-content/uploads/wpcf7_uploads/","",$cf7->uploaded_files['event-image']);
       $eventImg = $cf7->uploaded_files['event-image'];
       if (strlen($eventImg)<1)  {
         $eventImg = FALSE;
       }
       else {
         //make sure the image is below 1Mbyte
         if (filesize($eventImg) < 1048576){
           copy($eventImg, "wp-content/uploads/".$eventImgClean);
           $evImg = "/wp-content/uploads/".$eventImgClean;
           $filesize1_ok = TRUE;
         } else {
           $filesize1_ok = FALSE;
         }
       }
       //do extra stuff here
   }
   
   add_action('wpcf7_before_send_mail', 'update_event');
