solved Custom button not getting any data on post

Hi

I have created a ccustom upload button to upload files. In the upload form I have only files filed. When I try this in my upload_save funtion,

jrCore_form_get_save_data('gsVenue', 'upload', $_post);

I'm getting an empty array. I'm not sure why this is happening.

Thanks.

If it is only a file upload, then you're not going to get anything in $_post. $_post is for "normal" form fields.

you will need to use the jrCore_get_uploaded_media_files() function if you want to see what files were uploaded - i.e.


and then jrCore_save_all_media_files() to save then files to the proper profile location - i.e.


Where in this case $id is the unique datastore item_id for the created item (it must be created first, then you handle the file uploads).

Hope this helps!

Thanks for the guidance. I've tried as you suggested. I'm getting an error "You forgot to select a file to upload". My code is as below,

$_files = jrCore_get_uploaded_media_files('gsVenue', 'venue_files', $_user['user_active_profile_id']);
if (isset($_files) && is_array($_files)) {

$_up['venue_order'] = $ord;
foreach ($_files as $file_name) {
$_up['venue_order']++;
$aid = jrCore_db_create_item('gsVenue', $_up);
if (!$aid) {
jrCore_set_form_notice('error', 7);
jrCore_form_result();
}

jrCore_save_media_file('gsVenue', $file_name, $_user['user_active_profile_id'], $aid);

if (!isset($action_saved)) {
jrCore_run_module_function('jrAction_save', 'upload', 'gsVenue', $aid);
$action_saved = true;
}
}
}

Thanks.

jrCore_save_all_media_files('gsVenue', 'create', $_user['user_active_profile_id'], $aid);
