How to upload a file in Wordpress using a custom upload form?

Question

I do not want to use Wordpress built into the media downloader.

I have a form (on the interface) of my site, and I need to allow someone to upload the image to my uploads folder in wp-content. I found many tutorials, but they all tell me how to do this with the wordpress loader. I need to be able to verify what users are downloading.

Any help is much appreciated !!!

Thanks.

Answer 1

solved. This is the code I used for this:

In my code:

require_once(ABSPATH . "wp-admin" . '/includes/image.php'); require_once(ABSPATH . "wp-admin" . '/includes/file.php'); require_once(ABSPATH . "wp-admin" . '/includes/media.php'); $attachment_id = media_handle_upload('file-upload', $post->ID); 

In my form:

 <input type="file" name="file-upload" id="file-upload" />
