It was working fine until a couple days ago. Whenever I try to upload any photo anywhere it says "You do not have permission to upload files". I have tried going through my FTP and changing all permissions to 777 and it still not working. I have not downloaded any new plugins within the last couple of days. What could be the problem? :(<br /> Thanks!<br /> Amanda </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/248867#post-1284018 Tue, 17 Nov 2009 04:04:17 +0000 bruzed 1284018@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>no response? </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/332380#post-1283384 Mon, 16 Nov 2009 17:56:09 +0000 cyclosity 1283384@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>How can I change the default "medium" pixel width for image inserts for image files I upload into a post? </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/331918#post-1282154 Sun, 15 Nov 2009 16:22:41 +0000 MichaelH 1282154@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Please consider posting a "New Job Request" [1] to have a professional work with you, or consider joining and soliciting professional assistance from the wp-pro mailing list [2].</p> <p>[1] <a href="http://jobs.wordpress.net/postajob.php" rel="nofollow">http://jobs.wordpress.net/postajob.php</a> or <a href="http://www.elance.com/php/search/main/eolsearch.php?matchType=profile#page=1&amp;matchKeywords=wordpress&amp;catFilter=100" rel="nofollow">http://www.elance.com/php/search/main/eolsearch.php?matchType=profile#page=1&amp;matchKeywords=wordpress&amp;catFilter=100</a></p> <p>[2] <a href="http://lists.automattic.com/mailman/listinfo/wp-pro" rel="nofollow">http://lists.automattic.com/mailman/listinfo/wp-pro</a> </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/331918#post-1282135 Sun, 15 Nov 2009 16:00:20 +0000 kingsmate20 1282135@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>i'd love to get some help here, if someone's willing to lend a hand. can't be too complicated, I just don't know how to do what I'm trying to do.

There are certain pages I want to come up and just have the articles, not all the stuff on my side bar....I have a vision for the site, but need help putting it together. Would like to speak with someone over the phone preferably, and I'd talk now, 1139pm Eastern here, or tomorrow, Sunday, if need be. I'll pay, make it worth your while. I can't see it being too difficult, just REALLY want someone who can do an outstanding job, as well as earn return business, as I am setting up other sites.

Basically, have categories, then sub categories on the sides with all the documents that I've scanned. Some of the documents would be things like budgeting and financial review sheets, that people could print out. Others would be scanned articles from magazines for my readers to view. All content is from my company, and I need to get this up and running quick. Any help would be much appreciated.

But there is no option to link directly to a thumbnail of the image. I can only choose to link to the source image, or to a page with the image.</p> <p>Since I'm using a lightbox plugin, I need to link directly to the image... But the source image is to large...</p> <p>Any idea of how to solve this?

Once I set everything up and finally click upload it gets stuck at sending request. I've let it stay that way for up to 20 mins before giving up.

I know those settings, but the upload folder will be in wp-content and I want it to be in the root folder of my site, outside the wp folder.

How can I do that? </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/325341#post-1261088 Tue, 27 Oct 2009 21:00:23 +0000 partyboynx2 1261088@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>CHMOD your media upload directory to 777 and your problem should be fixed. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/325341#post-1261086 Tue, 27 Oct 2009 20:59:05 +0000 stuartburman 1261086@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>OK - after I looked at it it isn't just an issue with Media but also Plug-ins and virtually anything that relates to the WP-content directory. Almost as if the path for this directory is wrong, even though the Settings/Misc value is correct? Can anyone help or do I need to re-install Wordpress? </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/325341#post-1260414 Tue, 27 Oct 2009 09:14:17 +0000 stuartburman 1260414@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>All of Wordpress install seems to be working OK - however, when i try to upload an image through Wordpress I get the error message:</p> <p>"Unable to create directory /home/.sites/106/site857/web/notices/wp-content/2009/10. Is its parent directory writable by the server?"</p> <p>The Wordpress install directory = <a href="http://www.stmaryoftheangels.org.uk/notices" rel="nofollow">http://www.stmaryoftheangels.org.uk/notices</a> and the directory structure on the webserver for the wordpress install is: '/web/notices/wp-content'</p> <p>All permissions are fine and the FTP account I use can create directories and files in this directory (I checked myself through FTP client) - permissions 755 in the 'uploads' directory. </p> <p>The weird thing is the path - note the leading '/home/.sites/106/site857/' before the web folder. Now in the Settings/Miscellaneous I have 'wp-content/uploads' in the Store Uploads field and the URL field is left blank (and I have tried various combinations in these settings without success). Some combinations get rid of the weird leading '/home/.sites/106/site857/' in the error message.</p> <p>Can anyone help? </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/324433#post-1259445 Mon, 26 Oct 2009 15:17:36 +0000 songdogtech 1259445@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>You should read <a href="http://codex.wordpress.org/Hardening_WordPress">Hardening_WordPress</a> about safe file and directory permissions and <a href="http://socializedsoftware.com/2009/07/13/securing-wordpress/">securing-wordpress</a>. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/324433#post-1259422 Mon, 26 Oct 2009 14:51:22 +0000 slobizman 1259422@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Thanks zellie.</p> <p>Anyone else on this and wp-content/uploads?</p> <p>I'd just like to feel completely comfortable on this issue. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/324433#post-1257698 Sat, 24 Oct 2009 16:00:20 +0000 zellie 1257698@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>That's what my hosting company (A Small Orange) just told me. 577 used to work for me but now it won't (typically). 577 still works if I want to make changes to one template but my other template has to be at 777.

The images are now in the proper addon domain, as well as the WP Admin section. </p> <p>The one issue still remaining is the ability to log in on the site. The log in links take you to the proper domain, but it does not recognize that I am logged in. It takes me to the admin panel, and then when I visit the blog again, I am logged out. </p> <p>any ideas? </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/322733#post-1252519 Tue, 20 Oct 2009 07:40:40 +0000 iridiax 1252519@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>I have WordPress installed on an addon domain and both the WordPress and blog URL are set with the addon domain's URL and it works fine.</p> <p>For fixing WordPress and blog URL issues, see:</p> <p><a href="http://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_The_Site_URL" rel="nofollow">http://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_The_Site_URL</a> </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/322733#post-1252494 Tue, 20 Oct 2009 06:48:22 +0000 drkknght 1252494@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>actually -- now i notice that i can't even log in at the shortpaleandugly.com addon URL. the "login" and "register" links automatically take you to the robkamphausen.com/blog/ URL.</p> <p>and even when i do login at the robkamphausen.com/blog/ URL, it still says i'm logged out at shortpaleandugly.com (though i can make edits to that site via the robkamphausen.com/blog/ admin section)</p> <p>confusing, like an episode of lost! :) </p>
