Question

I am new to php. I need to list 10 last uploaded images from a folder. now I have this code.

<?php
$imageDir = "uploads/";
$images = glob($imageDir.'*.jpg');
$flag=1;
foreach ($images as $image){
  echo '<div class="item' .($flag?' active image-resposive':''). '">'.PHP_EOL."\t\t";
?>
<img class="wow zoomIn image-resposive" src="<?php echo $image ?>" alt=""></div> 
<?php 
  $flag=0;
}
?>

Answer 1

Use opendir() to loop through the directory and store all image filenames with last modified date in an array. Sort this array and pick 10 images so that you get your 10 most recent ones.

Answer 2

How about this.

$imageDir = "Uploads/";
$images = glob($imageDir . '\*.jpg');

$latest = array();

foreach($images as $image) {

    $x = (string)filectime($image);
    // Incase you encounter duplicates
    // $x = (string)filectime($image) . $image;

    $latest[$x] = $image;
}

krsort($latest);
$latest = array_slice(array_values($latest), 0, 10);

var_dump($latest);
