So, Lets get started with an example of User Profile Image.
Step 1: Create a table named users
CREATE TABLE users (
id INT(6) UNSIGNED AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
fullname VARCHAR(30) NOT NULL,
image VARCHAR(50)
)
Step 2: Let's create a form to upload the Image in a file named index.php
<?php session_start(); ?>
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">

<div class="container mt-5">
<div class="row justify-content-center">
<div class="col-md-6">
<div class="card shadow">
<?php
if(isset($_SESSION['message']))
{
echo '<h4 class="alert alert-warning">'.$_SESSION['message'].'</h4>';
unset($_SESSION['message']);
}
?>
<div class="card-header">
<h4>Upload Image in PHP MySQL</h4>
</div>
<div class="card-body">
<form action="code.php" method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<div class="mb-3">
<label>Full Name</label>
<input type="text" name="fullname" class="form-control">
</div>
<div class="mb-3">
<label>Upload Image</label>
<input type="file" name="image_profile" required class="form-control">
</div>
<div class="mb-3">
<hr/>
<button type="submit" name="upload_save_btn" class="btn btn-primary">Upload</button>
</div>
</form>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.6.0.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/bootstrap@5.1.3/dist/js/bootstrap.bundle.min.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
Step 3: Create a folder named uploads in your project to store the image.
Now, on form submit, your data is posted to code.php. So guys, lets create a code.php file and paste the below code:
<?php
session_start();
$con = mysqli_connect('localhost','root','','database_name');
if(isset($_POST['upload_save_btn']))
{
$fullname = mysqli_real_escape_string($con, $_POST['fullname']);
$image = $_FILES['image_profile']['name'];
$path = "uploads/"; /** Path for Uploading your Image **/
$image_extension = pathinfo($image, PATHINFO_EXTENSION); /** Image Extension **/
$filename = time().'.'.$image_extension; /** Renaming the Image **/
$query = "INSERT INTO users (fullname,image) VALUES ('$name','$filename')";
$query_run = mysqli_query($con, $query);
if($query_run)
{
// Upload Image to uploads folder
move_uploaded_file($_FILES['image_profile']['tmp_name'], $path."/".$filename);
$_SESSION['message'] = "Image User Profile Uploaded Successfully";
header('Location: index.php');
exit(0);
}
else
{
$_SESSION['message'] = "Something went wrong";
header('Location: index.php');
exit(0);
}
}
?>
That's it. Now you can see your uploaded Image in your created folder. i.e uploads/
