we will write click event for button and when you click on that button then and then images will upload to server.

So let's follow:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>

  <link href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/dropzone/4.0.1/min/dropzone.min.css" rel="stylesheet">

</head>
<body>
  
<div class="container">
  <div class="row">
    <div class="col-md-12">
      <h2>How to Change Thumbnail Image in Dropzone JS - ItSolutionStuff.com</h2>
      <form action="upload.php" enctype="multipart/form-data" class="dropzone" id="image-upload">
        <input type="hidden" name="request" value="add">
        <div>
          <h3>Upload Multiple Image By Click On Box</h3>
        </div>
      </form>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>
  
<script type="text/javascript">
  
    Dropzone.autoDiscover = false;
  
    var myDropzone = new Dropzone(".dropzone", { 
       maxFilesize: 10,
       success: function (file, response) {
          var ext = getFileExt(file.name);
  
          var newImagePath = file.name;
  
          /* Check for extension */
          if(ext != 'png' && ext != 'jpg' && ext != 'jpeg' && ext != 'gif'){
            newImagePath = "upload/default-image.jpg";
          }
   
          this.createThumbnailFromUrl(file, newImagePath);
       }
    });
  
    function getFileExt(fileName){
      fileName = fileName.toLowerCase();
      return fileName.split('.').pop();
    }
      
</script>
  
</body>
</html>

Step 2: Create upload.php file

In first step we have to create upload.php file in our root folder. In this file i write image upload folder code.

$uploadDir = 'upload';
  
$tmpFile = $_FILES['file']['tmp_name'];
$filename = $uploadDir.'/'.$_FILES['file']['name'];
