Is there a way to prevent same file uploads?
-
Hello, please see link below for reference on the form I’m using.
The potential customer is supposed to upload 2 separate forms or documents, but sometimes when they don’t have the second document, they upload 2 of the same ones to submit. Our company does not accept this.
Is there a way to prevent the customer from uploading 2 of the same documents?
Thank you,
Maggie

Hi Takayuki! Thanks for replying! :))
I have just tried to implement the custom validation script but it is currently not working, please see this test page: https://pacauto.com/new-account-register-test/
I have replaced “!=” to “=” (to invalidate duplicate file attachments).
Form tags I am using for the file attachments:
[file* file-1]
[file* file-2]—
Code below:
<script>
add_filter( ‘wpcf7_validate_file*’, ‘custom_file_confirmation_validation_filter’, 20, 2 );
function custom_file_confirmation_validation_filter( $result, $tag ) {
if ( ‘file-2’ == $tag->name ) {
$your_file_1 = isset( $_POST[‘file-1’] ) ? trim( $_POST[‘file-1’] ) : ”;
$your_file_2 = isset( $_POST[‘file-2’] ) ? trim( $_POST[‘file-2’] ) : ”;if ( $your_file_1 = $your_file_2 ) {
$result->invalidate( $tag, “Please do not submit the same file.” );
}
}return $result;
}</script>
