frm_upload_folder

Last Updated: January 23, 2019

Knowledge Base → Extend Formidable Forms → Formidable Hooks - for Developers → Entry Management → frm_upload_folder
Heads up!
This article contains PHP code and is intended for developers. We offer this code as a courtesy, but don't provide support for code customizations or 3rd party development.

The files uploaded through Formidable go to your wp-content/uploads/formidable folder. This may be different depending on where you have set your regular uploads to be stored. You can view the uploaded files in your WordPress Media Library, on the Formidable entries pages, or on any View you create. If you would like to further organize your uploads inside the “formidable” folder, you can do so with a little code added to a new plugin or your theme functions.php.

Usage

add_filter( 'frm_upload_folder', 'frm_custom_upload', 10, 2 );
function frm_custom_upload($folder, $atts)

Parameters

  • $folder (string)
  • $atts (array)
    • $atts['form_id'] (integer)

Examples

Organize by user login

Use this code to organize all file uploads by username within the parent form ID folder.

add_filter( 'frm_upload_folder', 'frm_custom_upload', 10, 2 );
function frm_custom_upload( $folder, $atts ) {
    if ( $atts['form_id'] == 25 ) { // change to your form id
        global $current_user;
        $folder = $folder . '/' . $current_user->user_login;
    }
    return $folder;
}

Reset to the default WordPress upload folder

If you are using a caching plugin setup with a CDN, it will work best if you leave the uploads in the regular uploads folder.

add_filter('frm_upload_folder', 'frm_custom_upload');
function frm_custom_upload($folder){
    $folder = '';
    return $folder;
}

Set a custom path

If you would like to set a custom path for your file uploads, this example should be a good starting point.

add_filter('frm_upload_folder', 'frm_custom_upload');
function frm_custom_upload($folder){
	$folder = '../../wp-content/uploads/product_images/';
    return $folder;
}
