Formit automatically collects the data of all your fields and places them in an email whenever you use the "email" hook. However, I want the email to be sent with all the field data but I want to leave out the attachments. I was able to disable the attachments within the email hook itself but this will be overwritten whenever you update Formit.
Is there a way to remove the attachments or disable them just for the email?
You can chain hooks in FormIt extra one after another like ... &hooks = 'spam,customhook,email,redirect' .... So, just from the top of my head, I would place a custom hook before email hook. The custom one does some job with submitted files (for example, uploads them to some folder) and then unsets/removes the corresponding fields as if the files were not uploaded and the corresponding fields didn't even exist so that the email hook can send emails afterwards w/o the attachments.
