Upload multiple files at once was created by theflyingrahul
I have a file upload question. I require my participants to upload up to 50 files. These are pictures. It is cumbersome for the participants to select one file at a time, despite the question allowing multiple files to be uploaded. 

Due to this, the drop out rate is quite high. Is there any way for me to allow participants to select multiple files at once and upload them in one go?

Any directions would be deeply appreciated!

Best,
Rahul

Currently, there are no know included solution.
You can write a Question theme for upload files, but it can be complex.

Uploading 50 images is cumbersome in any way and the drop out rates will most probably remain quite high, even if you streamline the process. It will surely help, but still, 50 images?

Help us to help you!
  • Provide your LS version and where it is installed (own server, uni/employer, SaaS hosting, etc.).
  • Always provide a LSS file (not LSQ or LSG).
