sniexx I have the same problem with swedish characters ?,?,? when they are in first in a row!
Is there a fix for this problem?

Thanks!

1) You should change everything if the name isn’t right, my input name is:
<input name="cimy_uef_AVATAR">

So if your name is IB60-13-UPLOAD then you should only have that in the php functions.

2) the path is for the folder on your ftp like this
$upload['path'] = ABSPATH.'wp-content/Cimy_User_Extra_Fields/'.$current_user->user_login.'/avatar';
and the url is for the link in the browser window like this
$upload['url'] = content_url().'/Cimy_User_Extra_Fields'.$current_user->user_login.'/avatar';

I also made some fixes for files that have space in it’s name you should add these lines to your code to get it working correctly.

$file = $_FILES['cimy_uef_AVATAR']['name'];
	$file = str_replace(" ","-", $file);
	$path = content_url().'/Cimy_User_Extra_Fields/'.$current_user->user_login.'/avatar/'.$file;

and then also change the media query to this
$wpdb->query("UPDATE wp_cimy_uef_data SET VALUE='$path' WHERE USER_ID=$user AND FIELD_ID=2");

dannykater had the same problem and couldn’t find anything inside the plugin so I made my own solution for it. here it is maybe not the best solution though.

if (
isset( $_POST['cimy_uef_NAME_nonce'])
&& wp_verify_nonce( $_POST['cimy_uef_NAME_nonce'], 'cimy_uef_NAME' )) {

	require_once( ABSPATH . 'wp-admin/includes/image.php' );
	require_once( ABSPATH . 'wp-admin/includes/file.php' );
	require_once( ABSPATH . 'wp-admin/includes/media.php' );

	$file = $_FILES['cimy_uef_NAME']['name'];
	$user = $current_user->ID;

	if($file==true){
		add_filter('upload_dir', 'my_file_dir');
		function my_file_dir($upload) {
			global $current_user;

			$upload['path'] = 'FOLDER_FOR_FILE/';
			$upload['url'] = 'URL_FORFILE';
			return $upload;
		}

		media_handle_upload( 'cimy_uef_NAME', 0);
		$wpdb->query("UPDATE wp_cimy_uef_data SET VALUE='$file' WHERE USER_ID=$user AND FIELD_ID=1");
	}
     }
