Your help needed for frontend file upload to MySQL Data Base

  • Hi Everyone,

    I’m a relative newbie to the WordPress world, and and trying to get my head around PHP & My SQL.

    I hope you might be able to help.

    I am going to move a my church website from standard PHP/html site to a wordpress site, but I’ve come up against a brick wall with a file upload area of the site.

    On the current site, we upload (front-end) mp3 files to one DB table, other document type files to other tables with in the same DB, which we then display on different pages for download by the congregation.

    I have this facility functioning fine in the “OLD SITE” site, so I know my PHP is working on that.
    I’ve imported the MySQL DB from the old server on to the new WP server and changed the DB name, user, password etc to match the new server. I have managed to display the content of the database ok, but I just can not seem to get it to upload with the WP system…..

    I would love to give you some code, but I got so frustrated at 4am this morning, that I wiped the lot and have reinstalled WP……

    So the question is, are there any free plugins that would allow front-end upload of varying file types, to different DB Tables? Or would someone be able to help me with some advice and pointers or even code to assist me writing the code to facilitate this function please?

    Sorry for the long windedness of my post…. I’ve only had 2 hours sleep…..

    Many thanks
