    When I try to upload an image using the public uploader I get this error:

    Unable to write to directory /home4/dixiemax/public_html/wpsite1//uploads/gallery/fanphotos. Is this directory writable by the server?

    originally it said WINAPS/….all that stuff

    but then I found a thing saying I should define that to something else so I did that but I’m still getting this issue. Can anyone help me with this?

    Try adding this to wp-config.php:

    define('WINABSPATH', str_replace('/', DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR, ABSPATH));

    It should be added just before:

    /* That’s all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */

    Thanks,

    Actually that just broke my site. Maybe I put it in the wrong spot.

    Dang it. Thanks, anyway.

    @alysiacaringi – Which “public uploader” are you referring to? Would this be a third-party extension to NextGEN Gallery by another plugin author?

    If so, have you contacted them regarding this issue as well?

    Thanks!

    Hi, sorry. After posting this I did realize that I was probably in the wrong forum. I’m referring to the Nextgen Public Uploader plugin.

    I did contact then as well. The issue still isn’t resolved.
