Do you know how to make a tool (e.g. in a basket) which users/clients could use to upload their files (JPEG,txt,etc.) to my server -> specific folder? This could work like the tool we are using to upload pictures within Admin Panel.

Jest możliwość skonfigurowania narzędzia dla klienta mieszczącego się w Koszyku lub Formularzu zamówienia, za pomocą którego mógłby ładować swoje pliki (JPEG, txt, itp.) na serwer mojego sklepu do konkretnego podkatalogu? Funkcja identyczna do tej którą uzywamy do ładowania swoich zdjęć na sklep.

Nie ma takiego narzędzia. Trzeba by nieco kombinować, ale myślę, jednak, że jest to do zrobienia, choć wątpię, żeby ktoś się silił i podał Ci tu gotową solucję, bo to na pewno trochę pracy jest.

what do you mean, like an external script that would be reachable by link, for example http://www.yoursite.com/uploadfiles/ ?
There are several of them, some better, some worse. This should be implementable, if you want it this way.

I thought about the tool on my website, but external link could be ok on condition that all files would go to my server. Only thing I need is to allow people to send me diffrent kind of files, not via e-mail as this is foolish.

I think you misunderstood me, this kind of tools works from your website and on your website. Use for example this:
http://www.energyscripts.com/Products/product2.html

It's simple to set up (set it up to QC/upload/ directory), it also has passwords for your customers and different folders to save files to. Customers can then save using a simple link:
www.yourwebsite.com/upload
Oh one more thing, when you're done installing, don't forget to chmod 777 the upload/uploads/ directory and all subdirectories.


And if you need to set this up directly in QuickCart, as a direct part of your webshop, I or OpenSolution.org can do this for you commercially, do let me know then.

Thanks for information, I have found this script too and think it is one of the best I have seen among these I can get for free.

One thing I am concerned about is the way I will identify which file was uploaded by each customer. Having files from different customers with the same file name can be nightmare. Do you think is it possible to modify ES Simple Uploader script to assign to each file specific information e.g. username or nick for identification purposes.

I mean is this small update in the script easy to implement or require a lot of time and resources?

when you send passwords to your customers, you should also create directories for upload for them. I don't think there is an easy way around this, maybe just with the script in the admin interface. You would still have to enter name of the new dir and customer's pass. You don't want anyone to upload anything.

OR you can tie the time-stamp and an IP address to the filename that the customer uploads. That should not be difficult.

The second solution is better as I don't have to assist customers when they buy products. I have to think the matter over. Beholder, I appreciate your help.
