I know this isn’t an in depth answer (I’m at work and can’t really test any code) but, maybe you need to look at directly creating hooks for your upload – which should mean that the flash uploader will act as you expect. The hook for the flash loader is: pre-flash-upload-ui You can see where … Read more
You’re right, it’s because by default, wp_handle_sideload() requires a valid extension in the URI in order to continue processing the sideload. That is, unless your role has a capability called ‘unfiltered_upload‘, which by default is only given to admins. If it seems appropriate (and safe) for you to grant this capability to the user role … Read more
You can try the manual transfer, first copy all your tables on your new database. Then you need to update the wp-config.php file in order for it to be able to connect. In case you have the rewriting enabled, you may also need to update the htaccess file (if the rewritebase is different, it’s not … Read more
Try uploading the image again now you’ve set up the media settings, this should fix it.
Who would say the solution would be this simple… After days battling with this, somehow it struck me: “what if we switch_to_blog() inside the media upload iframe?” What if we require the user to save the post before uploading any images? Turns out I had no answer to why we weren’t doing this on the … Read more
In, Dashboard -> Settings -> Media You can uncheck the, ☑ Organize my uploads into month- and year-based folders …and optionally change the path uploads (but this would effect all uploads of course). Optionally you can hook onto the upload_dir filter and change the upload path for a given post_type, or for some other … Read more
I’m pretty sure $_REQUEST[‘post_id’] will hold the post ID you’re attaching uploads to. So something like this perhaps: if ( isset( $_REQUEST[‘post_id’] ) && $post_id = absint( $_REQUEST[‘post_id’] ) ) { switch ( get_post_type( $post_id ) ) { case ‘document’ : if ( ! in_array( $type, array( ‘pdf’, ‘msword’, ‘vnd.ms-excel’ ) ) ) $file[‘error’] = … Read more
I found that the following worked best… when you click “Add Featured Image” from the editor page (the metabox link), the options for “insert into post” and all of the options you mention are missing from the media manager. This was perfect for me, as I wanted to remove the option for users to insert … Read more
function upload_file($file_url) { if ( ! filter_var($file_url, FILTER_VALIDATE_URL) ) return false; $get = wp_remote_get( $file_url ); if ( ! is_wp_error( $get ) ) { // check mime type if you want // $mime_type = wp_remote_retrieve_header( $get, ‘content-type’ ); return wp_upload_bits( basename($file_url), ”, wp_remote_retrieve_body( $get ) ); } return false; } // use it like upload_file(‘http://www.site.com/path/myfile.json’); … Read more
When you uploaded an image within the Edit Page screen for a page with a date of 06/01/2013, the media uploader will use the date of the page to set the sub-directory within the uploads folder. This is expected behavior because the media uploader passes the post_date to the wp_upload_dir() function.
