The solution probably lacked details because there are so many ways to go about it. I don't think there are any plugins for geoserver for uploading (though not a bad suggestion), so you'll have to pick your favorite web development toolkit and build your own tool.
I would suggest looking at GeoDjango, Mapfish, Geomajas and some of the other similar web frameworks specifically dealing with spatial data as something mostly out of the box from one of those might work for you. Basically you need a web interface to let users upload files. Then you either need to load those files into a postgis database or use them as is and setup a geoserver record for the data source.
