Processing uploads to other table

Hi,

What you would need to do is first create the record in the other section. Once this is done, you can use saveUploadFromFilepath() to move the upload. You'll need to call this function once for each file that needs to be moved.

The function is called like this:

saveUploadFromFilepath($tablename, $fieldname, $recordNum, $preSaveTempId, $filepath)

$preSaveTempId in your case would be null. So an example call would look like this:

saveUploadFromFilepath("my_section", "uploads", $newRecordNum, null, $upload['filePath']);

$newRecordNum would be the record number of the record you just created in your new section.

Hope this helps get you started

Hello Jason,

Thanks for the quick response.
But after this is done, will it delete the upload from the section it came from?
And if not, if i delete it at any of the two section, will it also be deleted from the other?

Thanks for the help,
Guido

Hi Guido,

The saveUploadFromFilePath() function will make a copy of the upload and associate it with your new record. You will then need to delete the upload from the other section. you can do this using the removeUploads() function. This works by passing a WHERE clause to the function.

For example:

removeUploads("num = '".intval($upload['num'])."'");

Hope this helps

Hi Jason,
