phpLD Image Uploader MOD
- 0 Comments
With this modification you can allow users to upload a profile image that will be placed in their details page.
1. Create a folder called uploads in the same folder as submit.php (root of the directory)
2. chmod 777 uploads
3. create a file image_upload.php in the same folder as submit.php, with the content below:
<?php $error=$_FILES[”IMAGE”][”error”];
if ($error == UPLOAD_ERR_OK) {
 $parsed = parse_url($_POST[”URL”]);
 $image_domain = $parsed[’host’];
 $image_type=$_FILES[’IMAGE’][’type’];
 $image_loc=”uploads/”.$image_domain.”.jpg”;
 $tmp_name = $_FILES[”IMAGE”][”tmp_name”];
 if ($image_type ==”image/pjpeg” ||
 $image_type==”image/gif” ||
 $image_type==”image/png”){
 move_uploaded_file($tmp_name, $image_loc);
 }
}
?>
4. in submit.php,
AFTER: require_once 'init.php';
ADD: require_once "image_upload.php";
5. in submit.tpl
FIND :
<form action="" method="post">
REPLACE BY:
<form action="" method="post"
 enctype="multipart/form-data">
FIND:
<td class="field">
 {* Load category selection *}
 {include file="category_select.tpl"}
 </td>
 </tr>
AFTER it, ADD:
<tr>
 <td class="label">Image</td>
 <td class="field">
 <input type="file" name="IMAGE" />
 </td></tr>
7. in detail.tpl, where you want the image to appear.
ADD:
{php}
$uploads_path="/path/to/uploads/";
$parsed = parse_url($this->_tpl_vars[URL]);
$image_domain = $parsed['host'];
$abs_image_loc = $uploads_path.$image_domain.".jpg";
$image_loc = "../uploads/".$image_domain.".jpg";
if (file_exists($abs_image_loc)) {
 echo "<img src=\"" . $image_loc . "\" />";
}
{/php}
EDIT : $uploads_path=â€/path/to/uploads/â€;
in the code above to something to the absolute path
to your uploads folder something like
“/home/domain/public_html/uploads/â€
That’s it.
The mod can be improved by adding small test on the image size and dimensions.
