In the plugin’s general settings, you will be able to set up the general upload rules and their visibility and other options. Let’s check every option in detail.
First of all, you can set the width, height, and quality of the thumbnail images generated after uploading a file.
The user can associate files to products and/or orders depending on the conditions set by the administrator.
The upload button shows only if one or more rules apply to the products in the cart.
The upload button can be shown in the Cart, Checkout, Thank You page and My Account, and enabled/disabled for each of them separately from the plugin General settings.
For uploads through the My Account page, you can further filter this option and make sure that it is available only for those order statuses that you’ve enabled in the following option “Allow the file upload when the order status is” (again in YITH > Uploads > General settings):
Additionally, you can also choose on which order status your customers are allowed to delete the files they have uploaded.
Storing folder and mode
Upload folder: choose a custom folder in your WordPress installation where to store all the uploaded files. Leave it blank to create the default folder in wp-content/uploads/yith-additional-uploads/.
Storing mode: choose whether to use the ID or the order number as the name of the subfolder where the uploaded files will be stored.
Split products in cart
Split products in cart: enable this option to split products with multiple quantities and make sure that customers can upload different products for every item. For example, if your user adds the “Calendar” product with quantity 3, they will be able to upload a different file for each copy of the calendar. Please, refer to this page for more details.
