Title: Upload in chunks from front-end?
Post by: mau on 23.04.2016 12:58:50
Hi, I would like to upload big files in little "chunks" from the front-end. Is it possible with jdownloads? Thanks.

Hi,
for big files it is easier to use the 'auto monotoring' feature in jDownloads. This can also be used with a cron job.
See here.

Hi, thank you for your reply, but I don't understand how I can use the 'auto-monitoring' feature to upload a file from the front-end...
My problem is this: I would like to create a form where the registered user could upload a big file after filling some text fields. Of course, being that the file could be very big (>100MB), the user should see a progress bar to know when its upload is finished.
The upload should be done from the front-end, and it should be as simpler as possible for the generic user, so I don't want him to use ftp or cPanel to upload the files...
Is it possible to make this with jdownloads (without having to mod php.ini, being that the hoster doesn't permit to change it)?
