Hi, I am looking for an option to be able to have a form with the file upload option. My problem is how I can set up the storage to save the files. Any ideas?

You need a server side script to handle the form and the upload. You can't do things like that with HTML. It just provides the interface.

In PHP I believe uploaded files are first stored in the server's default temporary directory, then you can move them to another more permanent location. See also https://www.php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.php and the pages it links to. |

Hi here are a couple of links to help you get started. Some of the examples are tied into some "in the cloud" services for storage.
Remember to do some research into the security end of things when using file uploads. https://colorlib.com/wp/bootstrap-file-uploads/ https://freshdesignweb.com/jquery-html5-file-upload/ |
