upload image (or file) by guest (resolved)

is there a way a guest can upload a file or image without being registered?

Not a good idea, because files are stored in the filesystem and can be – depending on the path settings and server setup – accesed directly, which combined with guest uploads would mean anybody could run arbitrary php code on your account.

You can always run another app for that.

Online File Browser is small and looking good.

I would ask on their forums, I haven’t had a chance to play around with it, just came across it a few days ago.

There are other download apps with more features like Olate Download.
