What does Filosofo Old-Style Upload do?
Filosofo Old-Style Upload is a WordPress 2.0+ plugin that restores the control over uploading and thumbnail-creation that earlier versions of WordPress used to provide.
Why would I want to do that?
WordPress 2.0 introduced a new in-line uploader that’s very convenient for ordinary users, but it eliminated the control over the upload directory and thumbnail creation that many of us were used to. This plugin restores the old upload features without affecting the new uploading capabilities.
Will it work on my blog?
This plugin is designed only for WordPress 2.0 blogs and newer. Older versions of WordPress already have this feature.
Where do I download it?

Oh, I didn’t even get the option, WordPress changed it for me, luckily I found a plugin that restores the old upload method, but it’s kinda sad it required a plugin to do that… Sure, it’ll protect some users from uploading large images that may ruin their layout, but surely that’s their perogative?

[...] WP2.0 moved the upload feature to the post-writing page, which I thought was a good move. However, previous versions of WP allowed admins to create custom paths for uploads… mine points to a directory I created that is not, obviously, part of the default WP installation. The moved upload feature in WP2.0 wants to upload files to a specific location that doesn’t exist, and complains that permissions on the server won’t let it create this new location. Nor is there any way to tell it where file uploads should really go. While the permissions problem is easy enough to fix, I don’t want uploaded files in two places, and don’t want to move old files and worry about updating paths in the the database or any **** like that. Handily, I found this Old Style Upload plugin, which restores the lost functionality… but doesn’t fix the much-better-placed new upload tool (and, strangely, seems to have screwed up the dimensions of the Link Pop-up Window, unless that sudden change was just an incredible coincidence), which I would rather be using. This is a stupid mistake that should not have been made. Yes, WP authors, we want to do things such that users are accomplishing things in the best possible way, but we don’t want to penalize users who are playing by our previously established (but less UI-riffic) rules, do we?

(Insert crazy horn noise here) So now since I can’t choose where to upload the pictures, I had to download an old-school plugin to bring back the way it was before. It was a quick fix, but I hope the WordPress guys fix this little problem. Other than that, I really haven’t noticed anything else I don’t care for. [...]

Ebbene su Firefox questa utility non funziona mai, nel senso sembra che carica il file (parliamo di file molto piccoli, semplici immagini gif o jpg) e non da alcun errore ma il file non viene uploadato. Pensavo fosse un problema di Wordpress ma poi ho scoperto che il problema si ripresenta anche con altri applicativi, tra cui net2ftp installato a parte sul mio server (mi domando se non possa per essere un problema di Tophost, tipo Timeout degli script php, ma mi pare strano che su Explorer funzionino senza problemi) e, forse, anche su AllYouCanUpload (anche se con questo ultimo sito a volte mi compariva un popup, durante l’upload, chiedeva di stoppare lo script in esecuzione: ma cosa serve questa funzione?)

[...] I started using another one of Il Filosofo’s plugins last week, but it only affects the WordPress admin area. It’s his Old-Style Upload plugin. It adds the upload functionality that older versions of WordPress had. There are configurable options, including where to upload the files and what types to accept. The cool thing is that these options have no effect on the upload capabilities that already exist within post-writing. The reason this is cool is because I can use the in-line upload tool to upload pictures or other files to my posts, and I can use the Old-Style Upload plugin to upload plugins to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory. And that’s exactly what I’m doing! It’s great! I can’t believe this functionality isn’t already there. I used to have to use FTP to upload new files. What a waste of time and security! [...]

Excellent! Thanks filosofo! Works like a charm.
It works great! Just like the old school upload feature.
Greetings, I love this plugin…in fact I am going to update my Wordpress inclusive of this plugin. I wasjust wondering why the old user levels (from 1 – 10) were maintained, shouldnt the plugin be syncronised with the new user levels (Subscriber, Editor, etc.)?
Best regards.
- MENJ
http://www.menj.org
Menj, the user permission levels can be mapped to the new roles, but perhaps I should update the plugin to reflect the new system.
thank you very very very much. You rock.
You are a godsend…. I haven’t even installed it yet – but I will sing your praises forever!
Sehr geil! Dankeschn!
THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
thx really a nice addon and works great
This plugin saved my sanity! And thanks for keeping the codes in a single file too!
Hi, I was happy to find this plugin, but when I went to upload my posts from TypePad, I received the following message:
It doesn’t look like you can use the file upload feature at this time because the directory you have specified (/home/onemind/public_html/trepnetwork/wp-content) doesn’t appear to be writable by WordPress. Check the permissions on the directory and for typos.
I’ve been dealing with this problem all day. All of the required directories have sufficient priviledges. I don’t understand what the problem is. Can you help?
Thanks,
Sam
Sam, is wp-content the directory you want to use for the uploads?
What are the permissions for the directory you want to use for the uploads?
Hi,
I desparately need to have the option of setting the width at a custom number and have the height remain proportional.
How can I change the code to do this?
I am very frustrated
No thumbnail plugin I have found can do this. All offer only custom largest side. This doesn’t work for me.
Thanks!
Don, this plugin uses the wp_create_thumbnail function, which is part of the WordPress core code. You can find it in wp-admin/admin-functions.php in WordPress version 2.0.3.
So one way to achieve what you want is to edit wp-admin/admin-functions, changing part of the wp_create_thumbnail function from
if ($image_attr[0] > $image_attr[1]) {$image_width = $image_attr[0];
$image_height = $image_attr[1];
$image_new_width = $max_side;
$image_ratio = $image_width / $image_new_width;
$image_new_height = $image_height / $image_ratio;
//width is > height
} else {
$image_width = $image_attr[0];
$image_height = $image_attr[1];
$image_new_height = $max_side;
$image_ratio = $image_height / $image_new_height;
$image_new_width = $image_width / $image_ratio;
//height > width
}
to something like
$image_width = $image_attr[0];
$image_height = $image_attr[1];
$image_new_width = $max_side;
$image_ratio = $image_width / $image_new_width;
$image_new_height = $image_height / $image_ratio;
//width is > height
Thanks!
That worked.
Is it possible to set up this plugin to take advantage of the “Organize my uploads into month- and year-based folders” option in options miscellaneous?
Don, actually this plugin’s aims are very simple: to reproduce the old upload features of WordPress prior to version 2.0. The month- and year-based folder organization is part of the new and entirely different uploading system. So for now I don’t see those features becoming part of this plugin.
What a beautiful plugin, thank you! I’m hoping to use it conjunction with bistr-o-mathik’s Image Browser plugin. It works fine, actually, but Image Browser looks for thumbnails that have
thumb-as the prefix to the original’s filename.Is there some way I can modify your plugin’s code to achieve that?
Again, thank you!
Dave
Dave, you should be able to make the “thumb-” prefix appear by adding the following line to the bottom of the plugin, right before the “
?>“:add_filter('thumbnail_filename', create_function('$a','return "thumb-" . $a;'));Brilliant! Fantastic! Thank you!!! OK, I’ll calm down now. You don’t have any way of accepting donations, do you?
Donations are completely optional, of course, but if you’re interested see above right below “Installation Instructions.”
Glad I could help.
Ah, yes, the large area above with the PayPal button… I’m going blind. Thanks again!
Dave
Thank you. I think it’s more a reflection of my ad placement skills.
Hello there. This plugin is perhaps the closest thing to what I’m looking for, though I’m not sure. See, I don’t mind the new upload feature in WP. I don’t mind the new default upload folder either. However, I do mind the default size of the thumbnails it generates; 96px is too small.
I’m considering using this pluging solely because it seems to give some control back in terms of the size of the created thumbnails. I’ve looked everywhere for an answer, but I can’t seem to find one. I’d just like to be able to create thumbnails that are 280px wide (with proportional height) with every picture upload. Not 96px. Is there a way to modify the code so that this works, properly, in every browser?
dponce80, I’m not sure if you’re asking about this plugin or not, but this plugin lets you create thumbnails of any width; it doesn’t matter what browser you’re using.
Hi… yes, I realize that. What I mean is, if there could be a way to tweak the WP so that I can still use the new upload feature, but when inserting a thumbnail, i’d like for it to be larger than the default currently set. Right now it produces a very small thumbnail… I’d just like it a little bigger.
I’ll use this plugin if there’s no way, but do you know if there is?
Thanks
dponce80, that inflexibility of thumbnail size is one reason I created this plugin.
For ideas on how to hack the core files to do what you want, see this support forum thread and the thread it links to.
Is there any way to set up this uploader so that my users of my website can upload files without having to register?
thanks
Not out of the box, but if you want to hire me to write such a plugin, email me at (if.website@gmail.com) if.website (located at) gmail (dot) com
Is there any way to alter this so that it will also accept other file formats? (txt, pdf, doc, etc). I tried checking out the plugin and just adding those file extensions where I saw the other ones but that didn’t seem to do it and I’m not really sure what I’m doing. Thanks for any help you can provide!
mk, did you add those extensions under Options > Uploads? That’s what I’ve done, and it works for me.
Do you get an error message?
See, I told you I didn’t know what I was doing.
That worked perfectly, thank you!
And since you were already so helpful, let me ask one more question. Have you/anyone else worked on implementing this with a tinyMCE plugin? I’m currently using EditorMonkey (but could probably switch) and the upload box doesn’t automatically show up with that. I suspect I can figure out a way to add it but thought I’d ask in case someone else had already done the hard stuff.
Thanks again!
Is there a way to add the functionality of choosing where each upload goes and adding directories? My photo storage solution is probably overly complicated, nontheless it’s what I have. I’ve never even used the upload feature of WP simply for this reason. I’ve always had to fire up FileZilla or WinSCP. :-\
This plugin ROCKS!!
I miss soo much this option of Worpress 1.5.x, It’s soo cool see it again!
Tnx Filosofo!
@
Hi, I have your plugin working, thanks! I can upload and set options, but (a) is there any way then to browse the uploaded images? At the moment, I must keep separate track of URL for each, plus sizing info. Also, (b) can I bulk upload via ftp to save doing them one at a time, and (c) when I’m editing post/page, I still get the WP2.1 inline image feature, but I cannot browse any image I have uploaded via your plugin.
Using WP2.1.
I cannot seem to find any instruction on how to do A, B, or C that I mention — if you could provide links to relevant info or an answer, that would be most appreciated, thank you!
PS: Instead of via Paypal, I had the **sense** to help your revenue grow in other ways
Hello Dean,
Unfortunately, there’s no easy way to implement the ideas you mention.
What I would like to do sometime is write another plugin that replaces the 2.0+ inline uploader with one that allows you to set the thumbnail size.
Thanks for your reply filosofo. It seems kinda crazy, but I find it intriguing that WordPress doesn’t really have any in-built/native super cool file management for things other than images (eg doc pdf xls) — nor a bulk upload feature etc — I guess that’s an issue of WordPress coming from a blog starting point rather than a CMS starting point.
Anyway, I’ll keep an eye out for any updates you create, thanks!
Hi.
I only wanted to thank Dean K for what you you said – for it reflects my feelings fully.
With regards,
Tal.
Hi
Thanks for the good job, but is any 2.1 compatible version coming? I’m afraid I’ll have to downgrade my WP only because of your plugin
Andy, what problems are you having?
It works for me on the latest WP.
There is so many plugins for wordpress.. I could find really that what i need – it’s yours!
Thank you for this great job!
This little plugin is worked like a charme …thanks for your work
Michael
Can you post a screenshot of the plugin in action on the lastest WP version (2.1.3)?
Thanks.
I’d like to use your plugin to upload those files I need to be in a directory different than the dafault WP upload directory (which I moved from /wp-content/uploads to /uploads). I created the directory /uploads/audio, set its path in your plugin’s options page and changed the allowed file extensions to mp3, ogg and so on. The permissions of /uploads/audio are set to 775, just like those of /uploads and its subdirectories (drwxrwxr-x). The standard WP upload script works fine but the Old-Style Upload plugin returns the following error:
“It doesn’t look like you can use the file upload feature at this time because the directory you have specified (/uploads/audio) doesn’t appear to be writable by WordPress. Check the permissions on the directory and for typos.”
The options for this plugin are under Options > Uploads.
That’s fine, I’d found them and changed the default URI to my custom path (/uploads/audio). Directory /uploads is writable by WordPress, that’s where I upload files through the standard interface; even though everything seems to be set right, you plugin can’t upload to /uploads/audio. What may not be working? I am using WordPress 2.2.1 and the latest version of your plugin.
Hi,
I am having problems with making the plugin work. After the activation it seems to show up fine under Admin->Uploads and Admin->Options->Uploads. However, whenever I tried to use it or change any settings I recieve “Cannot load filosofo-old-style-upload.php”.
Hello.
I was looking for something like this.Good work.Thanks:)
thank you for this great plugin!
thank you for your work, all works deserves a thank you
Nice plugin,thanks
thank you.
Thanx… Very Good!
thank you for this plugin! i like this plugin because is not overloading the server so much like other similar plugins
Guess I’m too thick to understand, but what is the difference between this plug-in and simply ftping files??
Since my site is in its startup stages, I will be uploaded almost 200 pdfs and each one needs to be linked back to its link text. I’m not looking forward to that at all. Will this plug-in help reduce the labor? If so, I’m certainly willing to have a go at it.
thanks for this great and very easy to use plugin!!
Thank you very much for this very nice PlugIn. It’s easy to use an give us back control about WP upload progress!
Greets
