Hello Friend,

I need to upload any file while uploading but, while upload using CI upload class we have to specify the allowed types,

How can I upload any type of file using CI upload class?

make a upload config file with the file groups that are allowed and autoload it.

Code:

$config['upload_img'] = '';
$config['upload_doc'] = '';
$config['upload_video'] = '';
$config['upload_audio'] = '';
$config['upload_all'] = $config['upload_audio'].'|'.$config['upload_video'].'|'.$config['upload_doc'].'|'.$config['upload_img'];

Add the types you want to allow for your site and where ever you need to upload you can do

Code:

$config['allowed_types'] = $this->config->item('upload_all');

can't we upload any file without specifying the file type ?

If you do it without the uploading class yes, otherwise no. Or you could hack the upload library code.

That's a setting in your php.ini, unless you have access to your server, you'll have to contact your host and ask if they can up this. Standard it's 2Mb if I'm not mistaken...
