  • Insert links and images
  • Use the built-in WYSIWYG editor

Portal Page Customization

File Type Filtering Workaround

LeapFILE doesn't have built-in file type restrictions, but you can add a warning to your Upload page:

<b style="color:red;">We only accept .pdf and .docx files.
All other formats will be rejected.</b>

Recipient Selection Mode

Controls how external senders choose who receives their upload. Configured under Account → Branding & Secure File Exchange → Upload Page.

Mode Behavior
Search (Email) Sender types the recipient's email. No staff list is exposed. (Default)
User List (Checkboxes) All account users displayed in a list. Senders can pick one or multiple.
Directory (Dropdown) Admin-curated dropdown of name/email pairs. Single selection.
Directory + Search Directory dropdown plus a search fallback.
Default Receiver One pre-configured recipient. Recipient step is skipped entirely.

Reducing drop-site abuse

If external parties have misused your Upload page to target staff, switch away from User List — modes that don't render your roster (Search, Default Receiver, or Directory with only intended recipients) prevent enumeration.

Single-user accounts bypass this step entirely regardless of mode.
