[request] Anonymous user upload
I’d like to set up an anonymous user upload area on a site I’m building.
Ideally, a user would have a browse field with an upload button and a description text area.
Upon uploading the user would get a thank you message and the file would be uploaded to the files directory and the description and (a pre determined) category would be added to the TXP database.
Any ideas? Is this doable or stupid from security standpoint.

I use an upload script snippet, but it does not in any way tie into the db. It will upload to where ever you want though. If you are on txd you can max out the php upload limits too 40mb+. If you woould like a copy let me know.

I, for one, am looking for just such a snippit, and would be most appreciative if you would be willing to pass it on.
Thanks!

I’m already offering a plugin to do this. If you would like a copy, please send me an email via the forum and I’ll see what I can do to help out.
[EDIT]
Due to the recent spammer acivity looks like the forum mail feature is out for a while — you can still reach me via the contact page of my website.
Thanks,

Hi Steve,
How can I get a copy of that plugin? I’m looking for an upload plugin as well.

Hi Steve, Sorry my reply took so long. I’m all set to try out your plug-in though, so if you still need testers, I’ll throw my hat in there. I also sent you an email through your web site.
Thanks!
