How to upload a file from custom file in wordpress - wordpress

Question

I am using file uploader from one of the plugin.
That php file called at file onchange event by ajax.
I got a file at php.
I can upload file manually by the help of this
$target_path = "../../../uploads/extension/";
$target_path = $target_path . basename( $_FILES['file']['name']);
if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['file']['tmp_name'], $target_path)) {
echo "The file ". basename( $_FILES['file']['name']).
" has been uploaded";
} else{
echo "There was an error uploading the file, please try again!";
}
But i want upload a file like other file uploading in Media. Its stored in uploads/2014/07 (i.e) upload/yearFolder/MonthFolder.
How to upload file like wise. I used wp_handle_upload(). but it returns undefined to call. So how to upload file.

add this file in your header(like:<script type="text/javascript" src="<?php print get_stylesheet_directory_uri() ;?>/js/ajaxupload.3.5.js" ></script> )
Now place this code below it in header
<script type="text/javascript" >
jQuery(function(){
var btnUpload=jQuery('#upload');
var status=jQuery('#status');
new AjaxUpload(btnUpload, {
action: '<?php echo get_template_directory_uri();?>/upload-file.php',
name: 'uploadfile',
onSubmit: function(file, ext){
if (! (ext && /^(jpg|png|jpeg|gif)$/.test(ext))){
// extension is not allowed
status.text('Only JPG, PNG or GIF files are allowed');
return false;
}
//status.text('Uploading...');
status.html('<img style="float:right;position:absolute;right:-30px;top:10px" width="16" border="0" height="16" alt="" src="<?php echo get_template_directory_uri(); ?>/img/ajax-loader.gif" id="pleasewait">');
},
onComplete: function(file, response){
//alert(response);
//On completion clear the status
status.text('');
//Add uploaded file to list
if(response!='error'){
//jQuery('<li></li>').appendTo('#files').html('<img src="'+response+'" alt="" /><br />'+file).addClass('success');
jQuery('<li></li>').appendTo('#files').html(file).addClass('success');
jQuery('<input type="hidden" id="uploaded-pres" value="'+response+'"/>').appendTo('#files');
} else{
jQuery('<li></li>').appendTo('#files').text(file).addClass('error');
}
}
});
});
</script>
Now make a upload-file.php in root folder
<?php
include_once('../../../wp-load.php');
if ( ! function_exists( 'wp_handle_upload' ) ) require_once( ABSPATH . 'wp-admin/includes/file.php' );
$uploadedfile = $_FILES['uploadfile'];
$upload_overrides = array( 'test_form' => false );
$movefile = wp_handle_upload( $uploadedfile, $upload_overrides );
if ( $movefile ) {
//echo "File is successfully uploaded.\n";
echo $movefile['url'];
} else {
echo "error";
}
?>
And lastly in html where you want to use upload button just put this
<div id="upload" ><span>Upload File<span></div><span id="status" ></span>
<ul id="files" ></ul>
Note: Its looking lengthy because i have written the js file code and php code at one place.
So arrange these file.
