👉🏼 Adding a field is simple and comes down to basic information.
- Add a new group with fields (Add New button) or edit an existing group. Assign a group to e.g. products or categories if needed.
- Add a new field in the Add new field section
- Select the File Upload field type
- Enter a label e.g. Add a file with graphics for printing
- Click the Add Field button
- Go to the new field options. Click the Advanced tab and set the Allowed file types option. The list includes all formats that WordPress accepts. Panel validation will not save changes without setting this option.
- It is also possible to set the Selected files limit or Maximum file size in MB.
- Publish the Group or Update changes.
🥳 The effect of the above changes will be the appearance of a new field on the product page. The file will be added to the product after clicking the Add to cart button (and reloading the page).
The file will be visible in the Cart in the product description as a link. Clicking on the link will show a preview of the file in a new tab. Our Developer has made sure that the files sent are safe. Its name is changed to a random name containing 32 characters when the file goes to the server.
