FAQ

Only user can see their own files?

Yes, not others.

Can I set filesize and types?

Yes

Can I upload Big files?

Yes, Big files can be uplaoded

Where all files are saved?

All files are saved under each user directory

Can admin download files from Dashboard?

Yes

Why I see HTTP Error message

it is because of your server side settings, sometime php.ini does not allow to upload big files. You need to check following two settings in php.ini:
1- post_max_size
2- upload_max_filesize

Fantastic

July 19, 2020
Great product, fantastic support. The most easiest file upload system I've come across and by far the cheapest. Obviously there's room for improvement but Ansar has it all covered 🙂

This extension saved me!

October 19, 2019
It's a simple extension but it does exactly what I needed and I could'nt have from more sophisticated plugins - It's perfect if you make a reserved area where customers can upload their own documents in their own private archive. Very collaborative assistance!

DONT BUY PRO

November 20, 2018
Designing a website for older individuals, so I needed a plugin that was easy to use. The free version of the plugin worked perfectly, but I needed thew features of the PRO. I purchased the PRO version and it doesnt work. I've tried everything. I've tried updating it, using it with the free version activated, and spent countless hours trying to work with their team to resolve the issues. IT just doesn't work. Their support is terrible. They just repeat the same thing over and over again. Find something different.

No reply!

June 11, 2018
I would like to upgrade to pro version but it seems that support is not responding my email. So, not sure if i will be buy the plugin. Too bad
