 * Hello there
 * Is it possible to set this up not only to send a PDF, but also create a post 
   using the PDF that was created when the form was filled?
 * I’m trying to set my site up so once a form has been filled, the PDF can then
   be viewed by anyone accessing the site, without having to manually create a post
   to display the PDF.
 * Cheers
    Andrew

 * Hi,
 * I am about to launch a couple of features that you may be interested in.
 * 1. Allow users to download filled PDF after submitting the form
    2. Allow CF7
   form editor to set path where filled PDFs will be saved.
 * I think you can use #2 to save PDF in a directory (in your public_html folder)
   that has directory listing turned on. Then, you can direct your users to that
   directory and allow them to download the filled PDF files.
 * Let me know if that is going to be helpful.

 * Both of those features will be extremely useful to me. Let me know when you have
   this up and running and I’ll get it implemented pretty quickly.

 * I have the first working version of the download/save features committed on GitHub.
   I would appreciate someone testing and giving me feedback. You can download the
   work in progress version of the plugin at the following URL,

 * Thanks for that. I have used it on a couple of forms. I like that The name of
   the PDF can now be specified, that is really handy. Implementing it is nice and
   easy too. With the uploaded PDF, is there anyway it could be placed in the media
   library, or even posted in a certain category

 * The file name feature was introduced in a previous version. Adding filled PDFs
   into the media library is an interesting idea, I will have to think about that.
   I don’t know about posting them in categories, I don’t think that is a native
   feature of WordPress.

 * By the way, I’ve released the new version recently, however, there is a small
   bug which I’ve fixed but haven’t released yet.
