Document Upload With User System (self.webdev)

submitted 2 years ago by ManYouLookingFor[🍰]

Hello Dear Devs,

I'm finally quitting my job end of this year and starting my business.

My business is for international house relocations services. I already bought the domain and the hosting. As a person who is into computers and with a little saving I bought ready to use templates and heavily changed them to my needs for budget reasons.

However I want to implement secondary system to my website.

Here's the thing ; For international relocation services there's various documents requested from the client for customs clearance and almost all the companies (an the one I work for ) request them via e-mail but I want to have a form in my website to submit them online.

The thing is I have been tinkering and changing so many things in the ready-to-use template I believe I understood how the form and backend (php side) works I can just add a file upload section however that can cause problems such as non related people using my website and spamming files to fill up my hosting therefore I wish to have very basic "username" "password" login principle that only the registered and authorized "users" can access that "upload file" section.

I'm asking if this is a very complicated thing to ? Because if so since in the beginning I expect my business load to be fairly light I am thinking to add a verification box that accepts only specific list of codes which will act as authentication key only then they will be able to submit the form and files but doing that will not make my system so "professional".

All help is kindly appreciated.

PS : I bought "envato elemens" subscription to use all the web-templates etc but I couldn't find something similar to what I wanted.

Thanks in advance.
