Creating a folder when I run file_put_contents()

by

file_put_contents() does not create the directory structure. Only the file.

You will need to add logic to your script to test if the month directory exists. If not, use mkdir() first.

if (!is_dir('upload/promotions/' . $month)) {
  // dir doesn't exist, make it
  mkdir('upload/promotions/' . $month);
}

file_put_contents('upload/promotions/' . $month . "https://stackoverflow.com/" . $image, $contents_data);

Update: mkdir() accepts a third parameter of $recursive which will create any missing directory structure. Might be useful if you need to create multiple directories.

Example with recursive and directory permissions set to 777:

mkdir('upload/promotions/' . $month, 0777, true);
