I just started programming a week or two ago, so I apologize for the potential terrible code, but I've been having a hard time figuring this one thing out.
I've managed to get the files to upload to the designated destination, but I just can't get the resize/image manipulation tool to work.
The code that's giving me the problem is the commented out section, and I've already made sure to give the folders the proper privileges. Any help would be outstanding.
I've also been curious about how I would use absolute paths for something like this:
function avatar_update() {
$config['upload_path'] = './avatars/';
$config['allowed_types'] = 'jpg';
$config['max_size'] = '100';
$config['max_width'] = '100';
$config['max_height'] = '100';
$config['file_name'] = time();
$filename = $config['file_name'];
$this->load->library('upload', $config);
if (!$this->upload->do_upload()) {
$error = $this->upload->display_errors();
$this->session->set_flashdata('msg', $error);
$this->load->view('General/header');
$this->load->view('profile_view', $error);
$this->load->view('General/footer');
} else {
// $this->load->library('image_lib');
// $resize['image_library'] = 'gd2';
// $resize['source_image'] = './avatars/'.$filename.'.jpg';
// $resize['maintain_ratio'] = TRUE;
// $resize['create_thumb'] =TRUE;
// $resize['width'] = 50;
// $resize['height'] = 50;
// $this->load->library('image_lib', $resize);
// $this->image_lib->resize();
$username = $this->session->userdata('username');
$avatar = array(
'avatar' => $filename
);
$this->db->where('username', $username);
$this->db->update('users', $avatar);
$this->db->select();
$this->db->where('username', $username);
$query = $this->db->get('users');
if ($query->num_rows() > 0) {
$user_details = $query->row_array();
}
$this->session->set_userdata($user_details);
$this->load->view('General/header');
$this->load->view('profile_view');
$this->load->view('General/footer');
}
}
