wp_get_upload_dir()

Retrieves uploads directory information.

Description

Same as wp_upload_dir() but "light weight" as it doesn’t attempt to create the uploads directory. Intended for use in themes, when only ‘basedir’ and ‘baseurl’ are needed, generally in all cases when not uploading files.

Return

(array) See wp_upload_dir() for description.

Source

File: wp-includes/functions.php

function wp_get_upload_dir() {
	return wp_upload_dir( null, false );
