Hello there,

I was wondering if there is any feature in the phpfileuploader that allows me to post directly to an external server

Because i use my website and this script together with facebook graph api to upload albums to facebook fan page, But at the moment it seems like the script first uploads the image to my server (to temp folder) and then start to upload it to facebook, so its like it uploads every image twice, it takes a very long time when each album has 5-10 (or more..) images in average.

Thanks,

Sahar. 

Hi sahar,

 

You can try create a  virtual directory under your site, and point this virtual directory to the external server. Then save the upload file into this virtual directory. Ensure that your site has the write/read permission of this folder.

Hmm i think there is a small misunderstanding ? :) 

When i said external server i meant facebook.com, in other words a server that i do not own,

 

Facebook got API which allows web owners to upload photos to fb albums through website.

I want to use phpfileuploader so it'll upload files directly from input to fb through that API instead of having it to upload to my server then again upload to fb, which takes double the time to do...

Hi sahar,

 

I see, but for now does not support this, sorry for your inconvenience.
