    Hi there,

    Some of my clients are having issues with the image upload and gallery feature on 2.5.1 (we had issues, I upgraded them to 2.5.1 and they are still having issues) so rather than keep fussing with it, I figure there has to be a plugin out there that just replaces it completely? Maybe with something a little more like the previous versions image upload feature?

    Thanks

    Do you know which issues they are having?

    Hi Kulspreet,

    When they try to insert a picture from the media gallery, the white popup box goes completely blank, and clicking the “X” button does nothing. Here are some screen shots, issues in both IE and FF

    Hi Otto, yes I’ve tried a few of those, that were as close to relevant to my problem as possible. What’s strange is I have no issues at all using IE and FF from my computer, but the clients are having these issues from their desktop & laptop using both IE and FF – the screen shots I provided are from them. And the issue is with the “show” feature, when they try to use that, in IE the screen goes white (pop up screen) and in FF it doesn’t fully slide open..

    Then that is pretty indicative of it not being a WordPress issue, but an issue with their desktop/laptops, no?

    Tell them how to clear their browser caches.

    Hey Otto, yes that’s my initial thought as well, but being on both computers and using both browsers, which are the same versions as mine – I’ve had them clear cache several times as well.. Have you ever seen anything like the screen shots I provided? Is there a possible way to revert back to the same or similar image uploading/media gallery feature as the the previous version of wordpress?

    Another oddity of the situation is sometimes they can upload and view the media gallery just fine without any issues at all, most of the time though they get these errors. Case in point, they emailed me this morning saying yesterday they were able to use the functions without error, and today they’re back to getting the problems I provided in the screen shots.

    Thanks

    So, um, there isn’t any image uploading/gallery plugins that resemble the previous version? I understand what you’re saying, maybe it is the clients computer, but I can’t do anything about that.

    I replied the following in this thread

    Okay, I don’t know if this is the be-all end-all solution, but it appears that WordPress has issues with the www. in front of the domain and doing cross-browser implementations. I was having this Insert Image issue on one of my client’s sites, although another client with the same exact install was working fine.

    For example, I was logged into a client’s site using:

    http://www.domainname.com/wp-admin/post.php?action=edit&post=28

    And it wasn’t working to Insert Images. I caught an exception error in Firebug that looked like this:

    uncaught exception: Permission denied to get property Window.send_to_editor
tb_show("", "[URL REMOVED FOR PRIVACY]", false)thickbox.js (line 230)
tb_init()thickbox.js (line 26)
e(Object type=click target=img currentTarget=a.thickbox)jquery.js (line 11)
e()

    However, if I changed the domain to:

    http://domainname.com/wp-admin/post.php?action=edit&post=28

    It worked. It seems like there’s some kind of cross-domain issue and wordpress treats the domain different with the www in front of it. OR that might be MediaTemple, I’m not too sure (it was a one-click install on MediaTemple which automatically sets the url to http://domainname.com when it installs itself).

    I’m not sure if it’s a Firefox issue because it worked fine in Safari and Camino for me.

    [edit]
    Just double checked, Camino automatically changes the domain to http://domainname.com even when I’m logged in and try to add the www. in front, but Safari and Firefox leaves the www. in front and then causes the blank white screen which may explain why it’s so hard to track down.

    SO DOUBLE-CHECK WHAT YOUR WORDPRESS URL/BLOG URL IS IN YOUR “GENERAL” TAB UNDER “SETTINGS” AND MAKE SURE YOUR BROWSER URL MATCHES THAT.

    ie. http://www.domainname.com or domainname.com
