It looks like this is actually a bug. Wordpress defaults to wp-content, right next to the field is says "Defaults to wp-content/uploads" I know I never changed that because this is a fresh install. One more thing though, I had to also turn off safe mode for PHP to get uploads working. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/247997#post-1002891 Mon, 02 Mar 2009 16:37:55 +0000 musnake 1002891@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Probably because many people (like myself) move the uploads folder somewhere else (and call is something else)... </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/247997#post-1000700 Sat, 28 Feb 2009 00:54:54 +0000 joecool99 1000700@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>That helped ! :-) I knew it must be something simple.<br /> The only other question, why is this not by default and working right away? </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/247997#post-1000547 Fri, 27 Feb 2009 21:44:38 +0000 musnake 1000547@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Hey Joe,</p> <p>In your settings/misc settings is your upload path: wp-content/uploads ? </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/247997#post-1000302 Fri, 27 Feb 2009 18:37:37 +0000 joecool99 1000302@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Hate to do this, but i see threads being resolved all over but this one ignored ?</p> <p>Anyone who can help with this ? </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/247997#post-999746 Fri, 27 Feb 2009 04:40:51 +0000 joecool99 999746@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>JUST installed the latest 2.7.1 version - and i'm surprised to see that image upload problem is back again.</p> <p>I've read and tried to search on this forum without success for solution. I've only found that this occurred before in previous versions.</p> <p>If i enter a new post and try to add images, the path it tries to access the photo is:<br /> ../wp-content/uploads/img_23542.jpg</p> <p>therefore the image is not visible with broken path as they are physically located here:<br /> ../wp-content/img_23542.jpg</p> <p>The upload folder is not there. Why is this happening ? I cannot imagine this would be a bug was left by the development team.</p> <p>Strangely, i've played with older version and didn't encounter this before.</p> <p>HOW COME THE 2.7.1 doesn't work straight "from the box?!<br /> What am i missing ? </p>
