Collecting attachments

    I am receiving quite a few attachments, which I want to download. Each download gets its’ own folder. To be precise, I spend 8 hours opening 350 folders, to download 350 files. Would it be possible to collect all files submitted through one form in one folder?

    Hi

    Because there could be filename clashes when different people are uploading files with the same file name, i purposely put them in different folders.

    Do you have SSH access to your server? if so you could probably create a script to copy or archive all the attachments and download them in one go.

    Hey Jason,

    Looking at possibly using your plugin today and saw this post. Another option would be to have the plugin prepend an ID of some sort to the attached file’s name so that there would be no conflicts. This would eliminate the possibility of a duplicate file conflict.

    Just my ￠￠. Hope this helps.

    Thanks for making a helpful plugin.
