Some settings related to this Option are on plugin's settings page. These settings are global and automatically applied to all instances of File Upload Option. However, setting like max file size and _mime types allowed _can be overridden on per Option instance basis. It means that you can have fine tuned file uploads across the site! 😎

🏆 PRO FUNCTIONALITY: In addition to the main variable that holds an ID of attachment uploaded, this Option also has these special vars:

{option_slug_width}
{option_slug_height}

These special variables are not empty only when the image is uploaded! Images in .png, .jpg formats etc. Obviously, these variables hold values of image's width and height (in pixels) respectively and can be used in backend in maths formula used for the price calculation.
