I'm writing a plugin for wordpress where certain information like a name and e-mailaddress and some info is stored in an SQL database table. I've got that working perfectly. But this information also needs a picture to go with it.
So when wordpress admin fills in the form, has the file selected and clicks submit I want the file to be uploaded into a directory and its location stored in a database along with the name and e-mailaddress.
All this preferably needs to be done in just one form.
Is this possible? Or is there another way that would make the end user click only once on a sumbit button.
Yes, it's possible. Just make sure you set the form enctype="multipart/form-data"
and that you use type="file"
for file input and regular inputs ( type="text"
, etc) for texts.
You'll need to write a code to move uploaded files to a location you want, as well as to add its info to the database.
Yes, it should be possible.
Just ensure that your <form>
has the attributes enctype="multipart/form-data"
and method="post"
By PHP side after submit, you can use $_POST
variables as usual, plus $_FILES
for handling uploads with <input type="file">
in the same form.
See this PHP manual page for details on file upload.
