How to get uploaded file size?

    Hi,

    I need to limit uploaded file(s) size, where can I get it?
    Since the file upload field allows multiple files I need to sum them up and provide custom validation.

    Definitely there should be such an info, even before real upload, because when file is chosen from a disk, the info about it’s size and type is shown.

    Or is there even some native function for this?

    Thanks
    Petr

    Hey there,
    Thank you for using Caldera Forms.

    You can use the upload_size_limit filter for this. Add it conditionally if Caldera Forms is submitting. Check for the WordPress query var cf_api

    If you need help implementing this, please open a support ticket at http://calderaforms.com/support

    Hi, thanks for your reply.

    Does this upload_size_limit filter apply to one file or the sum of all uploaded files? I need to limit the SUM of ALL uploaded files together, not just one by one. I’m affraid this is not the case of upload_size_limit filter.

    And what exactly do you mean by “Check for the WordPress query var cf_api”? I’ve tried to google it but haven’t recieved any reasonable answer.

    Thanks again.
    Petr
