So I finally found a clue. The media article type stores the caption in post_excerpt, description in post_content. I’m not quite sure which field stores the alt text, but I’m quite happy with just storing the caption in post_excerpt.
Ah, this is silly, but it turns out there was a very obvious reason why media_sideload_image() wasn’t working. My wp-content folder had the wrong the permissions from when I transferred it to my local environment and I wasn’t able to upload anything. Changed the permissions and it’s working fine.
I think that you have made a mistake in the last line. array_push is not doing what you are trying to achieve (check the Manual) same as update_post_meta accepts different arguments. Besides that WooCommerce is storing galleries in simple comma separated list like 1,45,78,34 so you should change the last line update_post_meta($post_id, array_push($post_id, ‘_product_image_gallery’, $id)); … Read more
You just complicating yourself here. If you want a sequential ID just store it in an option and increment its value with each new upload. There is a very slight possibility of a race condition which might result with two images having the names of IMG_N.png and IMG_N-2.png but it is not likely to happen … Read more
Within your code snippet $upload[‘file’] will contain the full file path to the file. You could save this in the meta so that it’s retrievable whenever you want to delete the file.
After uploaded your pdf file just do some step to hide pdf or uploads folder files that no one view those files except direct link.

wp_generate_attachment_metadata generates metadata for an image attachment. It also creates a thumbnail and other intermediate sizes of the image attachment based on the sizes defined on the Settings_Media_Screen. wp_generate_attachment_metadata() is located in wp-admin/includes/image.php. /* just require image.php before wp_generate_attachment_metadata */ require_once(ABSPATH . ‘wp-admin/includes/image.php’); $attach_data = wp_generate_attachment_metadata( $attach_id, $file ); hope that helps!
Since i was also looking for some sort of keeping submitted images, i found this simple plugin, which gave me a bit insight: https://wordpress.org/plugins/store-file-uploads-for-contact-form-7/ Also if you read a bit on the mentioned “file-uploading-and-attachment” topic in cf7, you should get the point: For security reasons, specifying files outside of the wp-content directory for email attachments … Read more
This is the common issue we are facing when we change the server of the website.However in this there is no issue of permission to folder . In your admin, go to Settings/Media and change the upload path to that of the new server.
The answer is actually several steps that took me lots of experimentation, but it comes down to the following code that you need to compile using something like webpack and extract out the libraries, etc: // MediaUploadFilter.js import { MediaUpload } from ‘@wordpress/media-utils’ const { addFilter } = window.wp.hooks const replaceMediaUpload = () => MediaUpload … Read more
