Easy File Upload
-
If you are using the free version of WPForms and need to collect resumes, photos, or PDFs from your users, Filenzo is a lifesaver. It effectively unlocks a “Pro-only” feature without the $199/year price tag of the WPForms Pro plan.The Pros
- Cost-Effective: It provides a functional file upload field for free, which is usually locked behind a premium paywall in the core WPForms plugin.
- Simple Integration: It uses the native WPForms drag-and-drop interface. Once installed, a new “File Upload” field appears in your builder.
- Customization: You can restrict specific file extensions (e.g., only allowing
.jpgor.pdf) and set maximum file size limits to protect your server storage. - Email Attachments: It includes an option to attach the uploaded files directly to the admin notification email, making it easy to view submissions without logging into WordPress.
The Cons
- Dependency: It cannot work alone; it requires the base WPForms plugin to be installed.
- Limited Storage Options: Unlike the official WPForms Pro version (which integrates with Zapier or Google Drive), Filenzo primarily saves files to your WordPress uploads directory (
/wp-content/uploads/wpxform-uploads/). - Third-Party Risk: Since it is not developed by the official WPForms team (Awesome Motive), there is always a slight risk of compatibility issues during major WPForms updates.
