Folder Settings

Global folder settings are applied to all selected forms by default. However, you can override the global settings for a specific form by configuring the folder settings for that form.

What you can configure:

• Parent Folder (Free)
• Custom Folder Structure With Dynamic ShortCodes (Pro)
• Conditional Custom Folder Structure Based On Form Input Values (Pro)

Configure Folder Settings

Parent Folder (Free)

By default, parent folder will load from the global settings. If you want to change the parent folder for a specific form then you can select a parent folder from the dropdown list. The list will show all the available folders of your connected cloud storage service. If you don't want to change the parent folder then you can leave it as is.

Sub Folder Mode

- Regular Sub Folder
- Conditional Sub Folder

Regular Sub Folder

If you select the regular sub folder mode then you can structure the Sub Folder Path using the following dynamic shortcodes to structure the sub folder. Such as:

• {form_title} - Title of the form
• {submission.id} - Submission ID
• {inputs.field_name} - Field value of the field name (e.g. {inputs.field_name} will be replaced with the value of the field name)
• {date.Y-m-d} - Current date (Y-m-d)

Conditional Sub Folder

If you select the conditional sub folder mode then it will show conditional sub folders options. Such as:

• Any (OR): Create a folder if any condition is met.
• All (AND): Create a folder if all conditions are met.

Any (OR) Conditional Sub Folder

After selecting Any (OR) mode, the Rules section will show the rules to define the conditions for the sub folder creation. You can add as much rules as you want. Each rule will be treated as an OR condition.

Add a new rule:

• Select the field name from the dropdown list.
• Select the operator from the dropdown list.
• Enter or select the value for the field.
• Define the sub folder path using the dynamic shortcodes.

After defined the rules, from now on when a form is submitted, the plugin will check if any of the rules are met. If any of the rules are met, then the sub folder will be created based on the defined sub folder path.

All (AND) Conditional Sub Folder

After selecting All (AND) mode, the Rules section will show the rules to define the conditions for the sub folder creation. You can add as much rules as you want. Each rule will be treated as an AND condition.

Add a new rule:

• Select the field name from the dropdown list.
• Select the operator from the dropdown list.
• Enter or select the value for the field.
• Define the sub folder path using the dynamic shortcodes. As All (AND) condition selected, the sub folder path only can define in the first rule and rest of the rules will be automatically fill the sub folder path from the previous rule. For example, if the first rule is defined the sub folder path as {form_title}/{submission.id} then the rest of the rules will be automatically fill the sub folder path as {form_title}/{submission.id}.

After defined the rules, from now on when a form is submitted, the plugin will check if all of the rules are met. If all of the rules are met, then the sub folder will be created based on the defined sub folder path.

Custom Folder Structure With Dynamic ShortCodes (Pro)

You can configure the custom folder structure for the sub folder path by using the following dynamic shortcodes. Such as:

• {form_title} - Title of the form
• {submission.id} - Submission ID
• {inputs.field_name} - Field value of the field name (e.g. {inputs.field_name} will be replaced with the value of the field name)
• {date.Y-m-d} - Current date (Y-m-d)
