A file upload module for Joomla: visitors send files into a chosen folder, while the administrator limits file size, allowed MIME types and how many files go at once.
Easy File Uploader is a module by Michael A. Gilkes (ValorApps) that places a file upload form on a page. It is useful when clients or staff need to hand over artwork, documents or photos and a full file manager would be overkill.
Features
- Saves uploads into a chosen folder inside the images directory.
- A maximum file size limit.
- An allow list of file types by MIME type.
- Several files in one go, up to 10 at a time.
- Custom field label, button text and other front-end wording, plus the background colour of the result block.
- A custom input variable name, so several upload modules can live on one page.
- An option letting the user overwrite files that already exist.
- Optional per-user subfolders named after the username.
- A MIME detection capability check shown in the module manager.
Compatibility
- Joomla 4 and 5; Joomla 6 support is not listed in JED.
- Current version 2.9.6, last updated in JED on 26 September 2025.
