I’ve been working for a while to figure out how to modifiy the way wordpress handles uploads.  If your trying to make changes in the actual upload process open file.php in the wordpress wp-includes folder.

the function you’ll need to make changes to is wp_handle_upload

for anyone wondering why you would ever want to modify uploads heres a few examples of why I do.

Ex 1: wordpress admin runs on a different server than wordpress, whenever an upload is made it should also be sent to the live server ( yes there are other hacks involved)

ex 2: wordpress is a subsystem of a larger system, so at upload you need to make sure the ain system tracks those changes.
