Send An Email With Attachment to the Media Library

Hello @pbchambers26

First of all, you create a form. Then send the media to the Ajax action by making an Ajax call on its submission. Now with Ajax call-back function we can send attachments in an email and save them in the media library.

Here is the ajax call back function

function ajax_call_back_func() {

// File upload
	if ( $_FILES ) { 
		$files = $_FILES["file"];  
		foreach ($files['name'] as $key => $value) {            
			if ($files['name'][$key]) { 
				$file = array( 
					'name' => $files['name'][$key],
					'type' => $files['type'][$key], 
					'tmp_name' => $files['tmp_name'][$key], 
					'error' => $files['error'][$key],
					'size' => $files['size'][$key]
				); 
				$_FILES = array ("file" => $file); 
				foreach ($_FILES as $file => $array) {              
					$attachment_details = upload_file_to_media_library( 'file', $file, $post_id );

					if ( ! empty( $attachment_details['attach_id'] ) ) {
						$attachments = get_attached_file( $attachment_details['attach_id'] );
					}
					$attachments_url[] = wp_get_attachment_url( $attachment_details['attach_id'] );
				}
			} 
		} 
	}

	$headers = "X-Priority: 1\r\n";
	$headers .= 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\n";
	$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=utf-8' . "\r\n";
	$sent = wp_mail( $to_email, $to_subject, $content, $headers, $attachments_url );

}

function upload_file_to_media_library( $key = null, $files = array(), $post_id = 0 ) {
	$result              = array();
	$result['success']   = 0;
	$result['attach_id'] = 0;

	if ( $_FILES[ $key ]['error'] !== UPLOAD_ERR_OK ) {
		return $result;
	}

	// These files need to be included as dependencies when on the front end.
	require_once( ABSPATH . 'wp-admin/includes/image.php' );
	require_once( ABSPATH . 'wp-admin/includes/file.php' );
	require_once( ABSPATH . 'wp-admin/includes/media.php' );

	// Let WordPress handle the upload.
	$attachment_id = media_handle_upload( $key, $post_id );

	if ( ! is_wp_error( $attachment_id ) ) {
		update_post_meta( $attachment_id, 'attachment_for', 'custom_admin_order_notes' );
		$result              = array();
		$result['success']   = 1;
		$result['attach_id'] = $attachment_id;
	}

	return $result;
}

I hope this code will help you.
