   I have been trying to add images to my posts in wordpress 2.8 but after installing it through the flash loader the image is in my wp-content but has a broken page sign in the dashboard post section and when I try preview live or publish. I have tried using the link url directed to the image in the uploaded file still no luck. I used 2.7 before no problems. Any suggestions I have left one of the broken image problems on one of my posts chirocentre.co.uk./tempur-pedic-pillows should see on the right hand side "Tempur Travel Pillow in a grey text box.

   so there is supposed to be an image here..

   http://chirocentre.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/Tempur_Travel_Pillow.jpg

   does that image exist on the server at that location?

   does the media gallery show the newly uploaded images?

   Going through ftp on the server I can see all my other images from 2.7.1 in the folder "uploads" under wp-content and the new images i have been trying to insert into posts are stored in the wp-content level not the sub folder "uploads". When using the dashboard media gallery I can see the names of the newest images in wp-content as mentioned earlier but not the images.

   I forgot to add http://chirocentre.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/Tempur_Travel_Pillow.jpg is saved in lower case on the server does this make a difference i.e /Tempur_Travel_Pillow.jpg is /tempur_travel_pillow.jpg on the server.

   youre not answering the questions.

   So now I have another.

   http://chirocentre.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/tempur_travel_pillow.jpg

   is not the same as this:

   http://chirocentre.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/Tempur_Travel_Pillow.jpg

   theyre both throwing 404s though. Do either exist on the server?

   if you just want to write, thats fine -- let me know though before I spend more time here.

   Yes they do both exist as I had mentioned so far on my server which I had logged onto through the ftp software that is where I'm looking at them. So I don't know why they are creating 404's. So why would the image names show in the media gallery but not no actual image?

   do you have any .htaccess files on the server? what is inside them?

   # BEGIN WordPress
   <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
   RewriteEngine On
   RewriteBase /
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
   RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
   </IfModule>
   # END WordPress

   I have found that I can upload an image file through the media button but the image will not show until I use my ftp to transfer the image which will now be saved on the server under the folder "wp-content" and move the image file into the sub-folder "uploads".
