10 articles, in the order most people need them
Extra form fields
Collect data alongside the file: text, numbers, email, dates, checkboxes, dropdowns and consent questions.
Webcam capture
Let visitors record video or take a photo from the device camera and upload it without choosing a file.
Directory uploads
Since 4.18.1, visitors can drag or select whole folders and upload them with their structure intact.
Material UI theme
The upload form rebuilt in React and Material UI, with colour controls, dark mode and font sizing.
Styling with CSS
The practical ways to apply your own CSS, so the form takes on the colours and fonts of your theme.
Inheriting theme styles
Turn off the plugin's strict styling so its elements inherit the active theme instead of overriding it.
Responsive layout
Set fitmode to responsive and the form rearranges itself for the width it is given, rather than a fixed size.
Gutenberg blocks
Two blocks that place the uploader and the file viewer without shortcodes, and how to convert between them.
Migrating to Gutenberg
What changes when you move off the classic editor, and how to carry shortcodes and custom code across.
Elementor
What 4.12.2 fixed for Elementor, which handles pages its own way and previously broke the upload form.
