$config[$a]=array(
'allowed_types'=>'xlsx',
'upload_path'=> $this->gallery_path,
'overwrite'=>true,
'max_size'=>2000,
);
$this->load->library('upload',$config);

It's not possible to do that natively. People seem to be using this: https://github.com/stvnthomas/CodeIgniter-Multi-Upload

use for loop to upload more than one image at a time
controller
Code:
function demo(){
if($this->input->post('Submit')){
for($i=1;$i<=6;$i++)
{
if($_FILES['photo_'.$i]['name']!=''){
//upload thumbnail $c
$config['upload_path'] = 'Your folder path';
$config['allowed_types'] = 'gif|jpg|jpeg|png';
$config['file_name'] = '0'.$i;
$config['max_size'] = '150';
$this->load->library('upload');
$this->upload->initialize($config);
if ( ! $this->upload->do_upload('photo_'.$i))
{
$data['alert'] = $this->upload->display_errors();
}
else
{
$upload_data = $this->upload->data();
$filename = $upload_data['file_name'];
$width = $upload_data['image_width'];
$height = $upload_data['image_height'];
$config1 = array();
$this->load->library('image_lib');
$config1['source_image'] = 'your folder/'.$filename;
if($width>762){
//resize image
$sizes = array('width' => $width, 'height' => $height, 'new_width' => 762, 'new_height' => 325);
$newsize = array();
$newsize = $this->image_lib->size_calculator($sizes);
$config1['maintain_ratio'] = FALSE;
$config1['width'] = $newsize['new_width'];
$config1['height'] = $newsize['new_height'];
$this->image_lib->initialize($config1);
$this->image_lib->resize();
$this->image_lib->clear();
}
// creating thumb
$config1['maintain_ratio'] = FALSE;
$config1['width'] = 762;
$config1['height'] = 325;
$config1['create_thumb'] = TRUE;
$config1['thumb_marker'] = 'thumb_';
$this->image_lib->initialize($config1);
$this->image_lib->resize();
$this->Your model->save_image('photo_'.$i,$filename);
$data['alert'] = 'image uploaded';
}
}
}
$data['image'] = $this->Yoourmodel->get_homepage(); // select photos
$this->load->view('your view', $data);
}else{
$this->load->view('your view', $data);
}
}model
Code:
function save_image($field,$filename=''){
if($filename!=''){
$data[$field] = $filename;
}
$this->db->where('id',1);// item id
$this->db->update('home',$data);

I don't think that's what the OP means. I suspect he has an upload field with the multiple="" attribute, meaning you can select any number of files from the file picker window, and they are uploaded in an array.

Bigil you need to have a look at this extended library :
https://github.com/stvnthomas/CodeIgniter-Multi-Upload
you are doing way to much work to upload multiple files.
Literally with this library all you have to do is :
Code:
name="file[]"
$this->upload->do_multi_upload('file');and your done.

Heres a more in depth look at some of my code to further assist any one else looking into doing multiple uploads with a single form field.
as Fuzzy said with one form field just use
Code:
multiple=""then do :
Code:
$this->load->library('upload'); // Load Library
$this->upload->initialize(array( // takes an array of initialization options
"upload_path" => "/usr/local/var/www/Test/ci/uploads/",
"overwrite" => TRUE,
"encrypt_name" => TRUE,
"remove_spaces" => TRUE,
"allowed_types" => "txt|pdf",
"max_size" => 300,
"xss_clean" => FALSE
)); // These are just my options. Also keep in mind with PDF's YOU MUST TURN OFF xss_clean
if ($this->upload->do_multi_upload("files")) { // use same as you did in the input field
$return = $this->upload->get_multi_upload_data(); // then just use function from the extended libraryin my case I had to do this for a email system which Fuzzy helped me on so then do this :
Code:
foreach ($return as $file) { // loop over the upload data
$this->email->attach($file['full_path']); // attach the full path as an email attachments :D
}enjoy.
