To validate file type you should use property $extensions of FileValidator.

public function rules()
    {
        return [

            [['image'], 'safe'],
            [['image'], 'file', 'extensions'=>'jpg, gif, png'],
        ];
    }

Update

Ok, I've got this. Please check one more time the source link, especially the controller section. To validate your model, you have to use validate() function.

Example code:

$model->file = UploadedFile::getInstance($model, 'file');

if ($model->file && $model->validate()) {                
    $model->file->saveAs('uploads/' . $model->file->baseName . '.' . $model->file->extension);
}

Source.

Use extensions also.Validation message not display

NitheesBavesh Over a year ago

$fileupload = UploadedFile::getInstance($model, 'image'); if(!empty($fileupload)) { $fileupload->saveAs('uploads/' . $fileupload->baseName . '.' . $fileupload->extension); $model->image = $fileupload->baseName . '.' . $fileupload->extension; $model->save(); } Yii::$app->getSession()->setFlash('succ', 'Category added successfully'); return Yii::$app->getResponse()->redirect('/admin/category');
