Unable to create directory wp-content/uploads/2013/06. Is its parent directory writable by the server?

I haven’t logged into the site in about a month, uploading files was working fine before hand and now it is not. No one else logs in so I’m not sure what would have changed that would make it so I can no longer upload media. Please help. (I’m not very tech savvy so please explain in detail.)

Is your site hosted on WordPress.COM? If so, you’re on the wrong forums – you need to go here:

If not, and it’s self-hosted, check the file permissions –

My dashboard says wordpress.org and links me to this site.
If my site were self-hosted, where would I check the file permissions.

Your site is not hosted by WordPress. It is self-hosted. Try changing the permissions on the wp-content directory to 766. If you still have problems, try 767, 775 or 777. Once your uploads are working, change the permissions on wp-content back to 755 again and check that everything still works OK.

I’ve tried using your instructions above changing the wp-content and uploads folder to 777 but it’s still not working.

Any further tips?
