Add an Attachment to Email Notifications in Ninja Forms

ninja-forms-add-email-attachment.php

<?php
/*
Plugin Name: Ninja Forms Email Attachment
*/

function add_my_attachment( $attachments ) {
     $attachments[] = 'server_path_to_my_file';
     return $attachments;
}

add_filter( 'nf_email_notification_attachments' , 'add_my_attachment' );

How do you use this?

But it will add attachment to all email notifications, What if we just want to send attachment to specific form?

Thanks in advance.

Per the author, this code is old and is for NFv2.9.x.

For NinjaForms 3.x instead, use
apply_filters( 'ninja_forms_action_email_attachments', $attachments, $data, $settings )
The second parameter, $data, is the form data, where you can check the form ID if you want to do this for a specific form.

This might be obvious to some, but it wasn't to me and had a hard time finding the data object values. So just in case someone else finds this via Google search like I did:

// attach file to only certain form(s) -- the ID is the same as the # in the shortcode

if ($data['form_id'] == 2) {

    $attachments[] = "server_path_to_file";
    return $attachments;
}

Still pretty confused here. Would it be possible for someone paste the entire snippet to make this work?

Also, does this go into the functions.php file?

Thanks in advance.

Finally got it right. Here is my code placed at the bottom of the functions.php page

add_filter( 'ninja_forms_action_email_attachments', function( $attachments, $data, $settings ) {
// Append file path.
$attachments[] = get_parent_theme_file_path( 'STANDARD-TERMS-AND-CONDITIONS.pdf' );
return $attachments;
}, 10, 3 );

add_filter( 'ninja_forms_action_email_attachments', function( $attachments, $data, $settings ) { if ($data['form_id'] == 11) { $upload_dir = wp_upload_dir(); $attachments[] = $upload_dir['basedir'] . '/2018/10/the_file_you_want_to_attach.pdf'; return $attachments; } }, 10, 3 );

But still this filter will send the attachment in each email on that form.
I ve got two email actions. How can I select the attachment to go only to the first email?

Has there been an answer to the above questions, or is this just not possible?

I as well have this working and I as well only want it sent to the person who filled out the form, not the site admin.

Hi i came across this issue and even it's from november 2019 maybe i can help some other people.
First, it's my first time that i'am using Ninja Forms. I always use Gravity Form more Developer friendly i think but it's no free plugin.

I had the same problem, two e-mail actions one for the site-owner and the other for the user/subscriber
It is not difficult to exclude the site-owner e-mail.
In this (ninja_forms_action_email_attachments) hook and it's method takes three parameters.
The $setting parameter is an array with values for the form, use that to write a conditional and thats it.

Below a piece of code to get the idea. It's based on the action label in this case the email-type action.

if ($data['form_id'] == 3 ) {
    if ( $settings['type'] == 'email' && $settings['label'] != 'Admin email' ) {
          $attachments = array( WP_CONTENT_DIR  . '/uploads/blablabla.pdf');

        return $attachments;

}
}

Just also wanted to mention to others who my enqire, to get the post_id for the submission, it's stored under $data['actions']['save']['sub_id'] (but you need to have "store submission" enabled)
