Would it be possible to get a unique url so that I don't have to send an email ? (ex : if I want to send it by GTalk)


Yep, there is a checkbox on the form that allows you to skip sending the email. Instead, on the confirmation page, you'll be given a unique URL and a password that you can send however you'd like.


Oh I see. It's work but you have a bug and one or two minor "irritant" :

- If I check the checkbox, I have to input a valid email or I get a something went wrong error. (bug) - The person received an email even if the checkbox was checked (bug) - I have to input a description of the file requested (not needed)


Thanks, you found our first production bug! Should be fixed now :)

We still will require the file description, because in our opinion, the page that allows someone to upload the file should have some sort of reminder as to what file they are supposed to be uploading is (even if it is very brief).
