Using php and mysql to create user profile for every member on my site, so they will be able to upload pics, info, videos, etc, etc. The question I have is this......
Would it be best to store each piece of data (pics, video, info, et..etc.) into the database for each user, or would it be best to create a separate directory for each user, have the data stored in each user's directory, have a reference (path) to each piece of data stored in the database, then when the data is to be used, pull the reference from the database to use the data?
Or is there a different way to go about it?
How would you go about it?
Please your opinions and advice is greatly needed and appreciated, please?
Thanks!
