If your webserver is Apache, you’ll need to tell apache what kind of mime type your file is, so Apache knows how to handle it. You should be able to use the “application/octet-stream” mime type in your .htaccess, in order for Apache to force a download. Learn more here: http://www.htaccess-guide.com/adding-mime-types/ (see the 3rd paragraph, starting … Read more
The move_uploaded_file function is a PHP function: http://php.net/manual/en/function.move-uploaded-file.php One important thing to note about it from that page: This function checks to ensure that the file designated by filename is a valid upload file (meaning that it was uploaded via PHP’s HTTP POST upload mechanism). If the file is valid, it will be moved to … Read more
I know it’s been a while, but I wanted to offer a solution, if only for those who come across this question via Google. The issue is with the order of the parameters in the query string when you build the URL for the media uploader. My experience is that any parameters that come after … Read more
May be you are not returning correctly from function, Try this, function insert_attachment($file_handler, $post_id, $setthumb=false) { // check to make sure its a successful upload // changes start if ($_FILES[$file_handler][‘error’] !== UPLOAD_ERR_OK) { return __return_false(); } // changes end require_once(ABSPATH . “wp-admin” . ‘/includes/image.php’); require_once(ABSPATH . “wp-admin” . ‘/includes/file.php’); require_once(ABSPATH . “wp-admin” . ‘/includes/media.php’); $attach_id … Read more
Absolutely, you can simply hook into upload_size_limit and set a maximum filesize: // Change the upload size to 1MB add_filter( ‘upload_size_limit’, ‘wpse_163236_change_upload_size’ ); function wpse_163236_change_upload_size() { return 1000 * 1024; }
So I dont know if its the best way but my problem was the if statement surrounding the require_once on the necessary files that contain the function. Commented out the IF statement and it did the trick. I’ll go have that coffee now 😉 //if (!function_exists(‘wp_generate_attachment_metadata’)){ require_once(ABSPATH . ‘wp-admin/includes/image.php’); require_once(ABSPATH . ‘wp-admin/includes/file.php’); require_once(ABSPATH . ‘wp-admin/includes/media.php’); … Read more
If I’m not mistaken, then it should be possible. You want to use media_handle_upload(), which calls wp_handle_upload() to handle the file upload. wp_handle_upload() on itself won’t be helpful, especially because it is pretty much just a wrapper for _wp_handle_upload(). It’s not the end yet, because inside _wp_handle_upload() the function wp_upload_dir() is called, where we find … Read more

The handle_upload hook is called after wp_handle_upload is run, and it sends in a named array consisting of ‘file’, ‘url’ & ‘type’. You could possibly use code like this to utilise it, depending on what you need to achieve: function process_images($results) { if( $results[‘type’] === ‘image/jpeg’ ) { // or /png or /tif / /whatever … Read more
It seems that in the recent releases of WordPress, changes were made to the mime type handling to make sure that files have the extension they say they do: https://make.wordpress.org/core/2018/12/13/backwards-compatibility-breaks-in-5-0-1/ This poses an issue for SVG files without the tag in them. SVG is actually an XML, and WordPress is now requiring to have a … Read more
