Introduction

Filebox is a file-sharing no-code template that allows users to send files either via email or through a shortened URL. It also features rotating full-screen images and animations.

By default, all files are stored in Bubble storage but that can get very costly, however, you can change the upload destination using your own AWS, Uploadcare.com, or similar storage (one of our plugins would have to be used for that).

Setup Guide

Once you have bought or added a template to your account, you will see a dropdown in the New Application popup that lets you pick a template as the basis for the new application.

☝

Note: This can only be done when you create a new app.

After selecting a template you’ve bought, please complete the other fields with the necessary data (i.e: Name of the new app, What kind of application you are building, etc) and press Create a new app.

💡

Tip: A template isn't a theme for your app, but a pre-built set of elements and workflows. You can modify the template as you would modify another app.

Wait for Bubble to load the application with all the data.

After the application has loaded, you'll see the Component library on the right side for New Application. You can close it or follow the assistant steps to adjust different settings.

Now you're ready to go and dive into Bubble no-code development toolset.

Remove Banner

This template comes with a promotional banner above the Header element. Feel free to remove it from your app.

💡

Banner: See the instructions on how to remove the Zeroqode Banner in your template.

Things to Note

☝

Hidden Design Elements

💡

Tip: Initially, on some pages, design elements in Bubble Editor might be hidden.

Here is an example of how to unhide 👀 them:

Pages Overview

index

This is the landing page of the template. All activities of the template happen on this page.

Users can send a file with a supporting message, as well as share a link to the uploaded file.

After a successful transfer, the notification card also allows a new transfer for smooth file sharing with others.

It simply contains the logo, a HELP button, and a file upload card which allows you to input your email (the sender), the receiver's email, a message box, a file upload icon, and Transfer (send) button.

☝

Note: Switching between tabs works by changing elements’ custom states.

To modify the email content, sent to the sender and receiver, please be sure to modify the mail message content:

Enhance your app with powerful plugins

🔌 Zeroqode Plugins: add Superpowers to your App

Zeroqode Air Native plugin
