I need some help, I am trying to get it where once someone uploads an image, it will change it to their username. Here is some of the PHP Script that I have that uploads the image by the name that the file originally is.
So once they login it automatically says their username, Which i used $_SESSION['username'] how do I use that so once they choose a photo it will save it as their username. example : I'm uploading a file called logo.png and my username is admin. How do I do it where it will change the file name to admin.png instead of logo.png?
//if not logged in redirect to login page
if(!$user->is_logged_in()){ header('Location: login.php'); }
?>
<?php
$target_dir = "uploads/";
$target_file = $target_dir . basename($_FILES["fileToUpload"]["name"]);
$uploadOk = 1;
$imageFileType = pathinfo($target_file,PATHINFO_EXTENSION);
// Check if image file is a actual image or fake image
if(isset($_POST["submit"])) {
$check = getimagesize($_FILES["fileToUpload"]["tmp_name"]);
if($check !== false) {
echo "File is an image - " . $check["mime"] . ".";
$uploadOk = 1;
} else {
echo "File is not an image.";
$uploadOk = 0;
}
}
// Check if file already exists
if (file_exists($target_file)) {
echo "Sorry, file already exists.";
$uploadOk = 0;
}
// Check file size
if ($_FILES["fileToUpload"]["size"] > 500000) {
echo "Sorry, your file is too large.";
$uploadOk = 0;
}
// Allow certain file formats
if($imageFileType != "jpg" && $imageFileType != "png" && $imageFileType != "jpeg"
&& $imageFileType != "gif" ) {
echo "Sorry, only JPG, JPEG, PNG & GIF files are allowed.";
$uploadOk = 0;
}
// Check if $uploadOk is set to 0 by an error
if ($uploadOk == 0) {
echo "Sorry, your file was not uploaded.";
// if everything is ok, try to upload file
} else {
if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES["fileToUpload"]["tmp_name"], $target_file)) {
echo "The file ". basename( $_FILES["fileToUpload"]["name"]). " has been uploaded.";
} else {
echo "Sorry, there was an error uploading your file.";
}
}
?>

hey I guess you just need to change your $target_file
variable... try like this:
.....
$target_file = basename($_FILES["fileToUpload"]["name"]);
$imageFileType = pathinfo($target_file,PATHINFO_EXTENSION); //IMAGE FILE TYPE
$fileName = $_SESSION['username'].'.'. $imageFileType; //GENERATE FILE NAME
....//then when you move the file
move_uploaded_file($_FILES["fileToUpload"]["tmp_name"], $target_dir.$fileName)
As you can see I changed the $target_file
to $fileName
and added the $target_dir
Than should be ok!
