Let's illustrate how file uploads work with product options

Add New Option: Add a new option to the product.

Element Type: File: Set the element type of the option to "File."

• Allowed File Extensions: Specify the allowed file extensions, separated by commas (e.g., pdf, doc, jpg). This restricts the types of files customers can upload.

• Subfolder Name: Enter the name of a subfolder within the /admin/system/uploads/ directory where the uploaded files will be stored. This subfolder will be created automatically if it doesn't already exist.

Customer Upload: When a customer views the product on your storefront, they will be able to select and upload a file for the specified option.

Order Placement: Once the customer places the order, the uploaded file will be saved to the subfolder you specified in the option settings.

File Access: You can then access the uploaded file through the System → Data → File Uploads section in your admin panel. The record will contain a download link to the file.
