Forms are a vital component of Almabase, and the introduction of the "multiple files upload" field type is a significant enhancement.
Understanding Multiple File Upload
This field type enables users to submit multiple files at once, up to 20 documents or images, each 20 MB in size.
Note: Single file upload allows 1 file up to 20 MB for images/files, 200 MB for videos. Multiple file upload allows 20 files, each 20 MB, but doesn't include video.
Applications of Multiple File Upload
Alumni can upload graduation year pictures for a website gallery.
Share photos from alumni meet-ups without filling multiple forms – upload up to 20 images at once.
Encourage event feedback submission with photos.
Simplify job/internship applications and surveys by allowing all supporting documents in one submission.
In a Career portal, candidates can submit resumes, cover letters, and portfolios simultaneously.
Setting Up Multiple File Upload
When creating or editing a form on Almabase, select the 'Multiple File Upload' field type.
Customize the instructions or requirements for file uploads as needed.
Ensure the form layout accommodates the new field type effectively.
Best Practices
Clearly communicate the file types and size limits to users.
Provide examples of acceptable files to guide submissions.
Test the form to ensure a smooth user experience.
