User Registration File Uploads

Description

The File Uploads addon adds a file upload field to the User Registration form, allowing new signups to send documents, photos, or proof files directly during registration. Uploaded files are linked to the user’s profile in the WordPress dashboard, with control over accepted extensions and maximum size, covering scenarios such as freelancer portfolios, resumes for job listings, and document submission in communities that require manual validation before granting access.

How to Download File Uploads

The File Uploads addon is available for download here on Ultrapack. After downloading the .zip file, install it under Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin, select the package, and activate it with User Registration already running. The new upload field will then appear in the base plugin’s form editor.

Designed for those who need documents at registration time (portfolios, resumes, proof files, profile pictures), the extension saves the administrator from having to request files by email after approval. As an additional User Registration feature, it integrates directly with the base plugin’s form editor and keeps each attachment linked to the user’s registration, ready for review in the dashboard.
