I imagine that this would be a breeze for some – but I’m having difficulty getting just the upload’s directory name – not the full path – I’ve gotten this far:
$uploads = wp_upload_dir();
$upload_path = $uploads['baseurl']; // now how to get just the directory name?
anyone have any ideas?
thanks for sharing your experience. . .
This is what you get back from the function:
Array
(
[path] => C:\development\xampp\htdocs\example.com/content/uploads/2012/04
[url] => http://example.com/content/uploads/2012/04
[subdir] => /2012/04
[basedir] => C:\~\example.com/content/uploads
[baseurl] => http://example.com/content/uploads
[error] =>
)
So you can get the (as @OneTrickPony pointed out), folder/directory name with
echo wp_basename( $uploads['baseurl'] );
If you’re running multisite and you defined the constant UPLOADS
, then you access it from UPLOADS
or BLOGUPLOADDIR
.
EDIT
For multisites, you would get something like this:
Array
(
[path] => /var/www/example.com/public_html/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12,
[url] => http://example.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12,
[subdir] => /2016/12,
[basedir] => /var/www/example.com/public_html/wp-content/uploads/sites/2,
[baseurl] => http://example.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2,
[error] => ,
)
Where the “2” after sites
is the blog’s ID
