Images not uploading

    Hi All

    Thanks for help in advance (again).

    I understand a little code but please treat me as a beginner. I have looked at other forum entries and cannot find the solution. I have been writing my blog for a couple of weeks with no problems with media. All of a sudden my pictures aren’t uploading. Instead I get a red x. I have tried different images, different browsers, different PCs and checked my webspace from my hosting package(there is plenty).

    The blog is http://www.mydaymyway.co.uk. I’ve set aside 3 hours to do some work on it today and I have now wasted 2 hours trying to get even one picture up.

    If anyone out there has any ideas I would love to hear them

    Thanks

    Lucy

    Have you tried deactivating ALL plugins and switching to the twentythirteen theme to see if that makes a difference?

    Can you link the page that has the issue, or is this regarding the dashboard?

    When I tried to upload pictures to my media library in the dashboard they won’t upload and red cross appears.. is there anything else I can provide to be able to help?

    Have you deactivated ALL plugins and switched to twentythirteen theme? Have you been able to upload images since you updated to 3.7+?

    I have deactivated all plugins. and this hasn’t worked. If I change to twenty 13 won’t I lose all the bespoke things I have added to the website?

    Aren’t there lots of other people out there writing on their blog on twenty twelve without these issues? Just wondered so that I can understand why that might help… Do I need to start again with the blog? My blog is about the photos that I have taken in the past week.. I would really like to get this up today.. what else can I try?

    No, theme settings/options are saved in the database. It’s standard troubleshooting.

    Yes, that’s why I’m suggesting you go through the standard troubleshooting steps. You also did not answer my question above:

    Have you been able to upload images since you updated to 3.7+?

    Nope it didn’t make a difference at all… and I did lose all my bespoke settings… any other ideas? I honestly don’t understand why I can’t upload any pictures

    This is the first time I have tried to upload a picture since updating…

    Check the file permissions on the server:

    If that doesn’t work, try a manual update:

    Thanks- when you say check permissions- what should they be showing?

    Hey Wpyogi

    I do thank you for your help so far but I am none the wiser and cannot seem to use my blog in the way that I want to.. I can’t open the file permissions in the way that was outlined in the link you sent me

    Any other ideas?
