You can make and use a script like this: https://www.w3schools.com/php/php_file_upload.asp
Or you can use a program made for the purpose like this: https://www.phpjabbers.com/file-sharing-script/
But when you give people access to upload files to your server you MUST be sure you take care.
Oh - forgot: When you have found the method you want to use, then you can make a X5-button that has a link to your file-upload-solution.

If you want a file sharing script that works just like the phpjabbers.com file-sharing-script, then you can use ProjectSend, open source, works just like the phpjabbers script and absolutely free!!

Looks like a good solution. Do you have some experience with the system?
Hello,
Jere a totally free Ajax script to do that.

After searching and testing, I found this to be the best open source and also free solution I could find.
It does everything I need it to do.
As an admin you can add users and groups. So let's say you make a group for clients and only the specific client has access to his own upload space without knowing what another clients has uploaded. So client A has no access whatsoever to the upload space of client B.
The administrator gets notified by mail of a clients upload. The admin has also access to all client spaces and can retrieve the necessary or uploaded files, e.g. a graphic file with a company logo.
It works and looks like the php-jabbers one but you can customize it with your logo at the login. And it's totally free!
A ProjectSend Demo can be found here:

... in addition, for those interested, here you can find and download an old file of mine ready to be tested and used:
