    I am trying to use Elementor Forms as a starting point with postie. I have a form that pre-defines the to email and the Subject category. This has worked well until I get to adding an image. The images in the form are added as opposed to attached. Is there any setting or modifications I can make to use the link to the image so the featured image gets set? The Form process makes it very easy for a non-tech to be able to use Postie and not make mistakes. Thanks for any help or suggestions.

    I’m not sure what you mean here. Added to what?

    It would be helpful to know what the resulting email looks like.

    Sorry, that statement was confusing. When you add an upload image, the link is provided but it doesn’t show an actual attachment. Everything works fine except I can’t get the image to display. I am investigating some other Form widgets to see if they handle images differently.
    Here is the content of the Email:

    Hi Wayne, While I would love to use this in Elementor, that is probably more of an issue for them to turn on that you. But, I was able to solve it using the Free Caldera Form plugin. This has an option to show the image as an attachment which then displays in the Postie post. This is a really user friendly interface. I was able to put the labels of the fields I wanted on the form and then at the bottom when they go to get the image, PC or Phone, they select image or take a pic and just select “Submit”. One more gold star for Postie.
