 Image from URL Copied to Cutenews Image Folder |
 |
Hey guys,
Just a quick suggestion and was hoping that someone out there with great PHP knowledge would be able to do this 
Basically, I was hoping that maybe it would be possible to add another field to the image upload section that would allow users to copy an image url, and after clicking submit, the image would then be copied to your cutenews database. This would save having to download/upload an image as it would be pretty much instant.
Hopefully someone can muster this up!

I think I understand.
Try this:
Find this in images.mdu (around line 629 or so)
 | | <a target="_blank" title="<?=$echo['imageTitle']; ?>" href="<?=$config_path_image_upload.'/'.$file; ?>"><?=$file; ?></a> |
Change it to this:
| | <a target="_blank" title="<?=$echo['imageTitle']; ?>" href="<?=$config_path_image_upload.'/'.$file; ?>"><?=$file; ?></a><br /><input name="textfield" size="15" id="textfield" style="border: 2px solid rgb(204, 204, 204);" value="<?=$config_path_image_upload.'/'.$file; ?>" onclick="select()" type="text"> |
and you will get this:
Now you can just select it and copy and paste it.

Hey, thanks for the help, but unfortunately, that wasn't what I was after. (but still a great idea nonetheless).
I'll try and explain better:
- Basically, you copy an image's URL (which isn't based on your server)
- Paste that into a box on YOUR server
- When you click upload, that same image is then copied to your server so it's under the URL of www.mysite.com/images/etc...
So instead of uploading from your computer, you can upload from a URL.
Hopefully that explanation is simplier.

I think this is what you need.
Add the following to images.mdu, below the existing <form>.
| | <b>Remote upload</b>
<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="<?php echo $PHP_SELF; ?>&loadurl=true" method="post">
<table border="0" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="5" width="300" class="panel">
<tr>
<td>
<b>URL:</b>
</td>
<td>
<input type="text" name="from" size="40">
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
<b>Filename:</b>
<br />(optional)
</td>
<td>
<input type="text" name="to" size="40">
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2">
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>
<?php
if ($_GET[loadurl]){
if ($_POST[from] == ""){
echo 'Enter a url.';
} else{
$from = $_POST[from];
if($_POST[to] == "") {
$to = basename("$from");
} else $to = $_POST[to];
if (!copy("$_POST[from]","$folder/$to")){
echo 'File upload failed.';
}
}
}
?> |
It looks like this:
Copy the link to the image in the first field (example: http://path_to_image.com/img.jpg). In the second (optional) field you can enter a different filename instead of the original (ex: my_image.jpg).

Damn, got some errors... 
| | Warning: copy() [function.copy]: URL file-access is disabled in the server configuration in /home/baxyzco1/public_html/cat3/cutenews/inc/mod/images.mdu on line 519
Warning: copy(http://www.my360.com.au/img/game/Forza-Motorsport-3-1.jpg) [function.copy]: failed to open stream: no suitable wrapper could be found in /home/baxyzco1/public_html/cat3/cutenews/inc/mod/images.mdu on line 519
File upload failed.
|
This came up when I tried to upload the image.
However, this error was already there after uploading and editing your code:
| | Warning: getimagesize() [function.getimagesize]: URL file-access is disabled in the server configuration in /home/baxyzco1/public_html/cat3/cutenews/inc/mod/images.mdu on line 637

Simple, assuming your host allows this, make your own php.ini file and just add this line:
allow_url_fopen = 1
Then upload that to the root dir of your cutenewsru directory. This will make it work again, even under PHP5. Personally though most modern scripts use Curl because fopen has a few security problems.

Brilliant! Thank you both for your help! Works like a charm
