Thanks, but how do I allow access to have it send the file ONLY if the user fills out his name and email address and hits the SEND button?
Make the name and email address fields required.

Okay I have read the link about file uploading attachments. But it doesn’t explain how I a user can fill out their name/email address, select from a drop down menu a file they want, hit submit, and have it send the user an email with that file that they selected from the drop down menu? I am having trouble getting this setup properly. Would appreciate some help. I have 4 pdf files that I want to offer my users to be able to get after filling out the required name/email fields.
This is what I have so far:
<p>Your Name (required)
[text* your-name] </p>
<p>Your Email (required)
[email* your-email] </p>
<p>[select* menu-198 “File 1” “File 2” “File 3” “File 4”]</p>
<p>[submit “Send”]</p>
But where do you go to specify the links to the pdf files and have them attached to the email? They are located on my web host. I’m not sure how to do this.
do I add this to the additional settings: area?
on_sent_ok: “location = ‘http://url.com/file1.pdf’;”
on_sent_ok: “location = ‘http://url.com/file2.pdf’;”
on_sent_ok: “location = ‘http://url.com/file3.pdf’;”
on_sent_ok: “location = ‘http://url.com/file4.pdf’;”
I don’t get what is the problem you’re trying to solve. Already you have made it possible for only users who entered those required fields to submit and access the attached files.
<p>Your Name (required)
[text* your-name] </p>
<p>Your Email (required)
[email* your-email] </p>
The above instructions are for uploading documents, but how do you download documents after hitting the submit button? Thanks.
Exactly, I want it to have it where the user can select which file they want to download after filling out the required info. Not attach a file and upload it.
I’m trying to do the same thing. You think it would be easy. I’ve looked at a couple plugins and this one seems like it should work and is something that a lot of people would want to do. Please post what your solution was.

You are possibly better looking at something like Easy Digital Downloads for making downloads available – that’s what it’s made for.
