is there a way to have a contact like form where a client can drag and drop to upload files to me?

Update, 15 May 2024:

There is now a built-in Squarespace feature! You can add File Upload fields to your Form Blocks. A link to uploaded files will appear in the form submission notification email and can be downloaded if you have Owner or Administrator permissions on the website. 

You can choose which file types are accepted and how many files visitors can upload (up to 5) in the field's settings. Each uploaded file is limited to a size of 10 MB.

Squarespace doesn't have an 'upload' feature so you'll need to use an alternative third party solution to manage the files. There are a number of way to receive the files depending on your client's requirements. For example:

• They could ask customers to reply to the Order Confirmation email and attach their image(s). This is the simplest option as you will not require any code or third party tools.
• They could prompt the customer for file(s) on the Order Confirmation page. This will require code and the use of a third party forms service like JotForm (affiliate link) or a file storage/transfer service such as Dropbox, Google Drive or WeTransfer.
• You could prompt for the files on a Squarespace Form using the Squarewebsites Uploader (affiliate link). This service adds an upload capability to Squarespace Forms.
