How to upload files in wordpress – Source Code Version Only

If you ever need to build a custom plugin that creates a page with a form and that form has file inputs, you will have to upload those files properly. Here’s how you do it:

Wordpress has a function for this and it’s called wp_upload_bits (for more info about the function click here).

Here is a example on how to use it:

if($_FILES["inputFileName"]["name"]!=”") {
$file = file_get_contents($_FILES["inputFileName"]["tmp_name"]);
$xupload = wp_upload_bits($_FILES["inputFileName"]["name"], null, $file);
}

if($_FILES["inputFileName"]["name"]!=”") {
$file = file_get_contents($_FILES["inputFileName"]["tmp_name"]);
$xupload = wp_upload_bits($_FILES["inputFileName"]["name"], null, $file);//array with path, url and error
}

The if statement checks if a file has been selected for upload.. if none is selected in that field name, wp_upload_bits will not run. If a file is ready for upload, wp_upload_bits will upload the file in your uploads dir under wp-content and it will return a array that will be passed in this case to the $xupload variable. The array contains details about the uploaded file(path and url). Array also has a error parameter in case something goes wrong.

Wordpress Traffic

Our new plugin WP-Traffic has reached since it’s launch yesterday 260 registered websites in our system. Of course not all have actually added the widget to the website but there are still a few using it. It’s a good start for this plugin as it almost broke the record for most downloaded plugin in 1 day. If tomorrow at 3 PM (our time) it has more than 824 total downloads, we have a winner.

Some “different” websites have started using the plugin and have unexpectedly mixed with the normal ones. We are working to improve the plugin and the service each day. New versions will have more features and more flexibility but we need your help to figure out what those features are going to be.

So please, leave comments here about features, bugs or what ever is else that could help to do this, here!
