The File Upload field allows the users to upload a file along with the Form on your website.
In this article, you will find details about the configuration options you have for the File Upload field.
You can choose to specify which files you want to allow the user to upload, when accessing the Form.
To allow only specific files:
Select the specific File Types the user should be able to upload.
Click Submit.
We recommend selecting only specified files, to limit malicious code to be uploaded, whenever the user is submitting the Form.
If the list of predefined file types does not include a specific file type, you can add additional ones.
To add new file type:
Type a file extension name in the User defined allowed file types field.
Click +.
Click Submit.
The file upload field type will verify the file contents using the registered set of IFileStreamSecurityValidator instances.
To read more about this feature, see Server-side file validation in the CMS documentation.

The date picker uses a front-end library called to display a UI to pick dates.
Pikaday date picker can be localized based on the page the Form is rendered on.
The date picker displays the picked date in the required locale. Using JavaScript, a hidden field is updated with a standard date format to send to the server for storing record submissions. This avoids the locale mixing up the dates.
To achieve localized date, a Razor partial view is included at /Views/Partials/Forms/Themes/default/DatePicker.cshtml.
The DatePicker.cshtml includes the moment-with-locales.min.js library to help with the date locale formatting and the appropriate changes to Pikaday to support the locales. If you wish to use a different DatePicker component, edit the DatePicker.cshtml file as per your needs.
