   I was wondering if it is possible that applicants attach their CV to the form - or is it easier to put a remark on the form: send your CV separate by email?

   Yes you can upload files; you need to put an upload file field into your form.

   The only thing to note is that Machform 2.x and earlier sends you the email with only a download link to the file and not as an attachment. Normally, if you tried to open the file, it would go to the Machform system and prompt for your log on details before you can proceed. You would then go to then go to 'Entries' to view the submission, and the file uploaded.

   There is a work around; if you remove the line (something similar to):

   require('includes/check-session.php');

   at the top of the download.php (or equivalent) file, this will prevent the need to log on to view the attached/uploaded files. Removing the above will not affect other normal operations within the admin of Machform.

   Version 3 (beta released last week) will give you the option either upload the file and require you to log on to view, or send the file as a standard attachment, so if that's your preference you might want to wait for final release of ver 3, but use the other method I have mentioned in the interim.

   There are other posts on this topic, asking how to download the files without the need to log on:
