thenewperson Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 Trying to have folder create based on username. So if the username Frank uploads something i want his file to be uploaded to folder uploads/frank/(his file here). But im not good with php and screwing up. I have the upload code already and had it working on uploading to certain folder but cant get it to create its own folder if it doesnt exist yet. <?php $uploaddir = './uploads/'; $file = $uploaddir . basename($_FILES['uploadfile']['name']); $size=$_FILES['uploadfile']['size']; if($size>500*1024) { echo "error file size > 500 MB"; unlink($_FILES['uploadfile']['tmp_name']); exit; } move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"], "'.$_GET['username'].'/private/" . str_replace (" ", "",$_FILES["file"]["name"] . $file)); ?> if you need to look at other code to just ask. Just trying to get it to create folder based on their username in directory "uploads/"their username"/theirfile. Upload there but if folder doesnt exist create it on their first upload. So if anyone could help plz do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuie_b Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 you need to tell php to create the folder first take look at the example below <?php if(!is_dir("uploads/".$_GET['username'])){ mkdir("uploads/".$_GET['username']); } ?> as the example above shows we check to make sure the directory dosnt exist and then create it, <?php $uploaddir = './uploads/'; $file = $uploaddir . basename($_FILES['uploadfile']['name']); $size=$_FILES['uploadfile']['size']; if($size>500*1024) { echo "error file size > 500 MB"; unlink($_FILES['uploadfile']['tmp_name']); exit; } if(!is_dir("uploads/".$_GET['username'])){ mkdir("uploads/".$_GET['username']); } move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"], "'.$_GET['username'].'/private/" . str_replace (" ", "",$_FILES["file"]["name"] . $file)); ?> Stuie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
