Upload files under some user's folder

Hello, i am following this tutorial:
http://www.chronoengine.com/faqs/53-cfv4/cfv4-file-uploads/2630-how-can-i-upload-files-under-some-users-folder.html
and this thread:
http://www.chronoengine.com/forums/posts/t90947/p315781.html

but i can't make it work no matter what i do :?

First of all i use Joomla 3 & ChronoForms V5, dont know if this code is working on it.

In Designer Tab
1 File Field (Field Name= file01, Field ID=file1)

In Setup Tab
1 Custom Code field with this code:

<?php
$user =& JFactory::getUser();
$form->set('upload_files_file1', 'upload_path', JOOMLA_PATH."/images/uploads/{$user->username}/");
?>

1 Files Upload (Files config=file01:jpg-png-gif, Upload path=images/file1)
Dont know if the images/file1 path is correct but thats where i want the users folder to be created and the files uploaded.

Anyone that can see what i am doing wrong?

Hi Gatsman,

I have just added new section to the FAQ page with the code needed for v5 because its slightly different.

Thank you for updating the FAQ Max, but i still can't make it work 😢
It uploads the file but not where i want it, its either the default folder or whatever it put into the Files Upload - Edit action settings

This is the code in Custome Code before the Files Upload

<?php
$user =& JFactory::getUser();
$form->actions_config[file1]["upload_path"] = "images/uploadfiles/".DS.$user->get('username').DS;
?>

I could try and backup & upload my simple file upload form in case you want to take a look at it.
Thanks again

"file1" is not a valid action id, the action id in v5 is written beside the action's name, with a sky blue background, and its a numeric value.

Moreover, the path in your code is incomplete, try to add JPAH_BASE to the start of the string!

Still can't make it work
Thanks for the id info didn't know that, its [1] for me.
The correct path must be

$form->actions_config[1]["path"] = JPATH_BASE.DS."images/uploadfiles".DS.$user->get('username').DS;

Thats upload_path in my previous post

$form->actions_config[1]["upload_path"] = JPATH_BASE.DS."images/uploadfiles".DS.$user->get('username').DS;

But why did you change it to "path" ? it should be "upload_path"!!🙂

And that still doesn't work ? please add a debugger action after the "files upload", also do you have the "custom code" before the "files upload" ?

I 've gone crazy trying everything🙂 i saw it in the debugger

[path] => images\upload_files\20140515092804_G_background.png

and i thought i give it a try.

I always had a debugger on submit here are the PrtScr

Thank you Max 😛 😛 😛

I was looking on another id and came with the 1...
