Programmatically upload an image to the media gallery WordPress
- SOLVED
Hi all,
I want a custom page template that allows logged in users to add an image to the media gallery. I want the thumbnails to be created automatically. I don't want the user to have to go through the admin interface to do this, hence using a page template. The front end should consist only of a file upload field and an Upload button.
Thanks
Sean

wow, thank you for this Francisco. I think this what I wanted. testing now. how did you find it? I have been searching for days for this. all of my efforts pointed to this page: http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_insert_attachment - I copied the code, modified it and it didn't work.

Many days searching for WordPress fixes and patches :)
wp_insert_attachment should also work, try with WP_DEBUG to true, let's see whether there is something more.
