Frequently Asked Question



Q: Where Does the File Go? File Storage

The file gets sent to the user and admin email as a file attachment
The file also gets stored in your Quote Management Screen
The file folder on your server will be https://your-website.com/wp-content/uploads/scc-uploads/
Please make sure this folder doesn't grow too big in file size as your hosting company might have storage limits


NOTE: The file does not automatically get attached to the outgoing email that the frontend user receives (along with their quote PDF file) due to email deliverability issues. In the future, we will create a setting for you to choose if the file gets attached or not.
