WeGuide is proud to introduce a new and improved feature: the File Upload Question Type, which allows participants to upload PDFs and images directly within forms. Gone are the days of struggling with blurry photos of multi-page documents or manually scanning pages one by one. With this update, submissions are faster, clearer, and far more hassle-free for everyone involved.
This new feature streamlines the process by letting participants easily attach files, ensuring that all documents are consistent, legible, and straightforward to review. Instead of dealing with poor-quality images or complicated manual uploads, users can now submit their documents with just a few clicks, saving both time and effort. Whether it’s a contract, an application form, or any other document, files are uploaded quickly and in the correct format, making the entire process far more efficient.
Supporting a wide range of file types, the File Upload Question Type is compatible with PDFs and all standard image formats. This flexibility makes it easy for participants to submit various types of documents without worrying about specific formats. Whether it’s a scanned PDF, a JPEG image, or another common file type, participants can feel confident knowing their submission will be accepted without issue.
WeGuide’s interface is designed with simplicity in mind. It guides users through every step of the upload process, from selecting the appropriate file to tracking the upload’s progress and handling any potential errors. The process is smooth, intuitive, and user-friendly, ensuring that everyone can navigate the upload without confusion. If there is ever a problem, such as a connection issue, the system will notify the user and provide an easy "Retry" option to quickly resolve any issues, keeping the process on track without unnecessary delays or frustration.
Uploads are handled in the background, so participants can continue completing the rest of the form while their documents are being processed. This ensures that the form submission remains efficient and free from unnecessary interruptions, helping everyone get through the process quickly and with minimal effort.
Overall, this update is designed to make document submission easier than ever, ensuring a more seamless and efficient experience for both participants and administrators. With better file handling, fewer errors, and a smooth interface, the new File Upload Question Type will enhance the form submission process and make it more enjoyable and less time-consuming for everyone involved.

Why does it matter?
Submitting documents should be an easy and hassle-free process. This update is designed to streamline the experience, removing unnecessary steps, improving accuracy, and ensuring that the process is as simple as possible for everyone involved.
For participants, this means a significantly faster and smoother submission process. They will experience fewer errors when uploading their documents, reducing frustration and saving time. The process has been optimized to ensure a seamless user experience, making it easier than ever to submit necessary files without having to worry about upload issues.
For administrators, this update is a game-changer. It helps keep document submissions neatly organized and ensures that all files meet the required specifications before they are accepted. By only allowing approved file types and sizes, administrators can prevent common mistakes that often arise from receiving improper files. This proactive approach minimizes the risk of errors and reduces the need for follow-up communications. As a result, there is less back-and-forth between administrators and participants, making the entire workflow more efficient and reducing the time spent resolving issues.
The new File Upload Question Type is available now and is a great addition to WeGuide’s platform.
