Codeigniter Multi Save Upload Path

Question

I try to save the uploaded file in 2 paths, one inside a folder and contain the id and one outside the folder

Here's my code :

private function _uploadImage()
{
    $config['upload_path']          = './upload/'.$this->product_id;
    $config['allowed_types']        = 'gif|jpg|png';
    $config['file_name']            = $this->product_id;
    $config['overwrite']            = true;
    $config['max_size']             = 1024; // 1MB
    
    $config['upload_path']          = './upload/product';
    $config['allowed_types']        = 'gif|jpg|png';
    $config['file_name']            = $this->product_id;
    $config['overwrite']            = true;
    $config['max_size']             = 1024; // 1MB
    
    if (!is_dir('upload/'.$this->product_id)) {
        mkdir('./upload/' . $this->product_id, 0777, TRUE);
    }

    $this->load->library('upload', $config);

    if ($this->upload->do_upload('image')) {
        return $this->upload->data("file_name");
    }
    
    return "default.jpg";
}

When I run that code, the result is stucked

Can you help me what's wrong?

You set the upload_path key twice, which just overwrites itself. You'll need to process the upload wholly twice, with your two directories different. — James

The question is not very clear, but why not just copy the file after it is uploaded to the 2nd location? There are many examples here on SO, eg stackoverflow.com/questions/5772769/… — Don't Panic

You set the upload_path key twice, which just overwrites itself. You'll need to process the upload wholly twice, with your two directories different.

Since you're using a private function, you could for example add a parameter that distinguishes the path

private function _uploadImage($path)
{
    $config['upload_path']          = $path . '/' . $this->product_id;
    $config['allowed_types']        = 'gif|jpg|png';
    $config['file_name']            = $this->product_id;
    $config['overwrite']            = true;
    $config['max_size']             = 1024; // 1MB
    
    if (!is_dir($path . $this->product_id)) {
        mkdir($path . $this->product_id, 0777, TRUE);
    }

    $this->load->library('upload', $config);

    if ($this->upload->do_upload('image')) {
        return $this->upload->data("file_name");
    }
    
    return "default.jpg";
}

Now when you call your function, just include the paths:

$this->_uploadImage('./upload');
$this->_uploadImage('./upload/product');
