media button – recieves upload error on adding image

I’m running the latest Gravity Forms + latest WordPress. I have added wysiwyg for Gravity Forms and I get 2 errors:

First is that when I use the Media Button to upload an image it repeatedly gets an Upload error, please try again later.

This error does not happen if I use the back end to upload, either via the library dashboard, or by the media button in a new post or custom post type. It only occurs when running in the front end via Gravity Forms and WYSIWYG.

Any suggestions??

Gravity Forms is running with;
1: + Custom Post Types
2: saved Forms Add-on
3: WYSIWYG

If I deactivate the first 2, the error still occurs everytime.

Thanks

David

This plugin does not try to be fancy, and all it does is include the visual editor in the recommended way that the codex suggest. That is why I am not sure why it would not work on the frontend.

Have you enabled debug to see if that gives you any better clues?

I’m experiencing the exact same problem… I have a development site and a live site and the live site gets an “error with upload” message when I try and add media from the front end. The back end works fine…

Did you find a work around dpmhome? Or do you still have this issue?

Cheers!

Hi 🙂

Just want to say thanks to you Flick!

I had not solved the issue and had actually taken a large break from the project 🙁

Your link really helped! Using your solution appears to have fixed my issue – the files now speedily upload and complete without error! Quite excited to finally be making progress again

referring from flick link, the workaround is touching the core function of WP.

Is there a another solution without touching the core files of WP?

Thankyou

Hi Didithoe, there’s a seperate workaround in that article where you don’t have to edit core files… you work out what filter is best and set the post id to 0… that’s the work around that worked for me and doesn’t require editing core files

OK, Thank You. I’ll try the other workaround first.
