I have already created a form for my plugin, and it has two upload fields; one for an image and one for a zip-file. They are both using the same upload handler, and I want to save the attachment ID's to the database. The problem is that they use the same upload handler, so the value of the variable with the attachment ID will always be the last upload field. How is the best way to do this? Save in array (first index is first field, second index is second field)? Two upload handler is probably a bit overkill. Any ideas how to solve this in a good way?
This is the function that handles the upload:
function releases_action(){
global $wpdb;
// Upload cover
$uploadfiles = $_FILES['uploadfiles'];
if (is_array($uploadfiles)) {
foreach ($uploadfiles['name'] as $key => $value) {
// look only for uploded files
if ($uploadfiles['error'][$key] == 0) {
$filetmp = $uploadfiles['tmp_name'][$key];
//clean filename and extract extension
$filename = $uploadfiles['name'][$key];
// get file info
// @fixme: wp checks the file extension....
$filetype = wp_check_filetype( basename( $filename ), null );
$filetitle = preg_replace('/\.[^.]+$/', '', basename( $filename ) );
$filename = $filetitle . '.' . $filetype['ext'];
$upload_dir = wp_upload_dir();
/**
* Check if the filename already exist in the directory and rename the
* file if necessary
*/
$i = 0;
while ( file_exists( $upload_dir['path'] .'/' . $filename ) ) {
$filename = $filetitle . '_' . $i . '.' . $filetype['ext'];
$i++;
}
$filedest = $upload_dir['path'] . '/' . $filename;
/**
* Check write permissions
*/
if ( !is_writeable( $upload_dir['path'] ) ) {
$this->msg_e('Unable to write to directory %s. Is this directory writable by the server?');
return;
}
/**
* Save temporary file to uploads dir
*/
if ( !@move_uploaded_file($filetmp, $filedest) ){
$this->msg_e("Error, the file $filetmp could not moved to : $filedest ");
continue;
}
$attachment = array(
'post_mime_type' => $filetype['type'],
'post_title' => $filetitle,
'post_content' => '',
'post_status' => 'inherit'
);
$attach_id = wp_insert_attachment( $attachment, $filedest );
require_once( ABSPATH . "wp-admin" . '/includes/image.php' );
$attach_data = wp_generate_attachment_metadata( $attach_id, $filedest );
wp_update_attachment_metadata( $attach_id, $attach_data );
}
}
}
As I said, as both upload fields uses the same function, the $attach_ID variable will be the value of the latest upload.
