Displaying images on review page and limiiting file uploads

    I want to use the file upload function for photos (jpegs). How can I make it so a thumbnail of the photo uploaded appears on the 'review' page?

    It would also be good if a thumbnail also appeared on the submission page when they go back.

    I would also like to know how I can limit the number of files that can be uploaded as there's no provision for this in the field properties screen.

    Also, I would like to limit the size of the photos uploaded. How can this be achieved?

    p.s. I think you should introduce categories in your forum as it would make it easier for us to find specific posts.

    It's possible to show uploaded file in review page and create a limitation for the file size. You need to customize some files for this, for showing the image on review page, you can follow to these steps :

    1. Edit "includes/entry-functions.php" file and go to around line 383, you'll see these code :

    $file_1 	    =  substr($filename_value,strpos($filename_value,'-')+1);

    then put this code exactly above that line 

    $filename_basic = $filename_value ;

    2. Go to around line 406 ~ 408 for these code :

    if(!empty($options['show_attach_image'])){
	$entry_details[$i]['value'] = '<img src="'.$options['machform_path'].'images/icons/attach.gif" align="absmiddle" />&nbsp;'.$filename_value;
}

    then put these code exactly bellow that code

    if(!empty($options['show_image_directly'])){
	$entry_details[$i]['value'] = '<img width="200px" height="200px" src="http'.$ssl_suffix.'://'. $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] .dirname($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']) .  '/data/form_' . $form_id . '/files/'.  $filename_basic  . '.tmp" /> ';
}

    3. Edit "includes/view-functions.php" file, in line 2326 you'll see this code

    $param['show_attach_image']   = true;

    then put this code bellow that line 

    $param['show_image_directly']   = true;

    And to limit upload file size, you can use the method that posted in here :
