Hello

I use field of type file for uploading documents.

How can I limit allowed extentions?

I want to allow PDF, XLSX and DOCX only.

In settings of field (field manager) I don't see a possibility to limit allowed file types.

Thanks.

Hello,

The file typefield allow every extension and rename the php one to txt.

If you want to choose the allowed extension, you can use the fileupload typefield.

Best regards.
