How to find the file uploaded by DirectUploadControl

1. This depends on how the system is set to store files. So, it can be in the DB or on disk or both. When on disk, it depends what folder is set to store the attachments.
2. In the document events there is the SaveAttachment event - so maybe you can try using that one. Or, it might be better to create a custom uploader form control - depending on your needs.

Edit:

Can you please provide the table name where I can look for the uploaded file. Right now, the configuration is storing on disk. The directory is ~root/site-name/media

Thanks

Storing in files? I guess it is a typo. But the DB table for page attachments is called CMS_Attachments.

Hi, I may be bugging you but I'm not able to decipher this. For some pages, I find the uploaded file in

CMS_Attachment

table, for some other pages, I find the uploaded file in

CMS_AttachmentHistory

and sometimes I don't see the uploaded file entry in both the tables. I'm confused now why this is hapenning. I can see the file in the Form (on page) in all the cases.

Also, for all entries in CMS_AttachmentHistory, the column AttachmentGUID have same values but different AttachmentName

Edit:

I think I need to check AttachmentHistoryGUID but this is not available as a property.

Well, it looks like you are using also Workflows, so some entries for the non-published pages are still in the history table. Please, see this documentation to learn what tables are involved. Then, it also looks like you are using multi-lingual pages. So, one attachment could be translated into more languages. Or, there is some inconsistency in the DB too and you have orphaned records. But I cannot tell this for sure and you should probably contact the web developers who designed the site for you as they may know more about the project.
Also, isn't it possible that some pages (their respective page types) are using media selectors and work with media files and not with page attachments?
