Private Community File upload/download page

    Is there a way through JotForm to allow a person to upload a document to share on a page that would auto-appear on the page after uploading?

    I am building a private convention site that is only for certain users and the request to me was: "This would be a place where we can upload/download policy files (Word or PDF files) for them to retrieve."

    This would be a page that the users would share their policy documents and also download them. Just trying to figure out if JotForm can do such a thing without a lot of custom programming. Thanks.

    I am not sure if I have understood your question correctly. Do you want a page where your users can upload and download files?

    Please note that you can add "PDF Embedder" widget in form where you can upload your PDF documents for users to view and download. You can also add file upload filed in form to allow users to upload their own document.

    If you want page to also display the links to all the files that user has uploaded, it is currently not possible to achieve this automatically. You need to add the link of all the files manually in form. Alternatively, you can add a report in form which will display all submissions received in form including the uploaded file URL as well. There are several reporting options available and the following guide should help you: https://www.jotform.com/help/326-How-to-Create-Form-Reports-in-JotForm

    Hope this helps.
