    I can't seem to upload media- I get an HTTP Error. So I installed add-from-server, and activated it. I'm new to WordPress so it is probably right in front of me, but I can't find it anywhere. I looked at your screenshot, but I can't find anything like it. help would be appreciated. regards, **Joe McLaughlin**

    Good News and bad news: I found Add from Server, found my uploaded files, added them, and inserted them- but no matter how I try, I get only a broken graphic. Any ideas? thanks, **Joe**

    I found the problem. The link is entered as:
    http://www.linktothepast.org/public_html/wp-content/uploads/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/Roebling_Cincy_2.jpg
    obviously it should be:
    http://www.linktothepast.org/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/Roebling_Cincy_2.jpg

    It is correctable, but a pain. any idea why the extra public_html/wp-content/uploads/ is added? thanks, **Joe**

    Hm, The last person who had that problem had something invalid in the WordPress options:

    Settings -> Miscellaneous
    Ensure that "Store uploads in this folder" Is only set to 'wp-content/uploads' (Or another folder, Just make sure its relitive to the WordPress directory)
    And that "Full URL path to files (optional)" is either BLANK, or the Full path to the files, ie: http://site.com/wp-content/uploads/

    Feel free to contact me directly via http://dd32.id.au/contact-me/ As Its rare i monitor the forums :)

    thanks- setting the optional path as blank worked (although, in fact, it was in there correctly all the time) **Joe**

    I've been testing this plugin and it works great.

    I've got an server error several times in line 203, but I've figured out that any file has these [] in its name will cause that error when importing.

    Thanks for the great work.
