File Uploader help needed

**goodnight** · 27 Sep 2007, 10:08 PM

I have set up a "file uploader" as a product attribute. After having made a dummy purchase and uploaded a file with that product purchased, I look at my shopping cart and I can see the other attributes selected but I do not see anything that tells me (1) that there was a file uploaded (2) the name of the file, or (3) the location of the file that was uploaded to the server as part of the purchase.

How do I get these 3 pieces of info to show up in my shopping cart? I at least need the name of the file that the customer uploaded.

When creating the "file" box I can see where you set the length of the box, the number of charactres, etc but I do not see anything that defines the path to the location of the uploaded files.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!!

The file will be in your /images/uploads folder as long as the folder is "writable".
The filename should be listed in the order details when viewing the order in the admin area.

I'm banging my head here. I'm using the file uploader and when I upload a file, I get a message that the file has been uploaded successfully. The problem is that the uploaded image file isn't in images/uploads. I have the max file size set on the server to allow 100M file sizes. I have the max file upload size in the admin set to 100000000. The file I'm testing with is only 53kb. There should be a problem. The image file is set to 777, the upload file is set to 777. Still, I can't find the uploaded file. When I check the order summary, the file number is listed there, so something is going through. Where is the file going? Am I just missing something? The site can be viewed at www.visionsoncanvas.com/store. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Ok, I tried loading a virgin copy of zencart onto my server and added an upload feature the same way I have it set up through the current website - just to make sure I was doing it right. It worked perfectly. I found the uploaded images in the images/upload folder just like they were supposed to be. Any ideas why they're not showing up there when I upload images for the actual site. Where would they be going instead? They seem to be uploading - the reference number is there in the order report. I changed the custom template back to the default, but it had no effect. The images still didn't show up. I have several different attributes for each product. Could that effect the image upload?
