I have re installed wordpress 3.3.1. and have made several attempts to post my afternoon podcast episode but all of my attempts have failed. I have tried both the drop-in loader and he browser loader. When attempting to load my media I see a progress bar and once in a while I see crunching but even after ten minutes there is no progress. Are there any ideas?

Have you tried:
- deactivating all plugins to see if this resolves the problem. If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).
- switching to the Twenty Eleven theme to rule out any theme-specific problems.
- resetting the plugins folder by FTP or PhpMyAdmin. Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause problems.
- re-uploading the wp-admin and wp-includes folders from a fresh download of WordPress.

Posted 3 months ago #this sounds identical to the problems I've been having trying to upload images. The only fix I've found is to downgrade to 3.2.

@03USMCRAR_WA: Site or feed url?

Posted 3 months ago #The feed thing worked itself out. However, the upload issue is persistent. It stalls while crunching. How do I down grade WordPress versions?

Posted 3 months ago #To downgrade, download WP 3.2. Make a new wp-config file (its in the WP root) with your database name, database password, secure keys, etc.
Then ftp 3.2's wp-includes folder, wp-admin folder, and all root files. Do not touch wp-content. It might be smart to delete the 3.3 folders before sending the new ones up. That's how I did it anyway.
This worked for me on a very lean (brand new, no plugins, default theme) WP site. Everything was running just peachy, all I had to do was 'update the database' and that went smoothly. I have not tried it on a more complex site yet. I'd disable the plugins first, then do the downgrade.

Posted 3 months ago #right, its kind of technical. WP has automatic upgrade capabilities but for downgrades you need to do it manually. there should be a plugin for this..

Posted 3 months ago #Hmmmm, I'm using Hostgator too. I saw someone else on another thread w/ the same problem using hostgator. I wonder if it has something to do with them?
I spent about 3 hours with them yesterday. They say that they had no problem uploading it on their end.
They were trying their best to help though.

Posted 3 months ago #@kcurreri, did your problems start with an update to WP 3.3?
-
Posted 3 months ago #Nope, it just happened suddenly. However, after I started having issues I tested an old version of WP and I could upload fine. Then I updated the same old version to 3.3.1 and I started having the issue.
-
Posted 3 months ago #Nope and I have a work around for this. If you're like me and the file is uploading into Hostgator then there is a plug-in called add from server that will allow you to get around this I just did it and it worked.
and my problem started on Wednesday, I've been using 3.3.1 for a while with no problem.

Posted 3 months ago #and with Add From Server are your images in the WP database? and can they attach to posts, show up as header images, etc?
-
Posted 3 months ago #I took a look at this plugin, do you need to upload the file via FTP?
-
Posted 3 months ago #When you activate and go in it shows your upload files. Just scroll through the files that are in check the ones that are available.
-
Posted 3 months ago #Glad it works for you! I may end up going that route if I can't figure out anything by the end of the weekend. My issue is that I have a lot of non-technical users at my company that update the site. It would be tough to teach all of them a new process, however I may be out of options.
