Media uploads, but won't display; URL problem?

Hello. I would like to start by thanking anyone who takes the time to read this, I know you do this for free, simply to be helpful. I also apologize if this is an obvious problem, but I searched the forums and couldn’t find an answer.

For a couple months now, I haven’t been able to upload photos using WordPress’ built-in uploader. I should have tackled the problem immediately, but I’ve just been using FTP instead. Well, I finally decided to tackle the problem, and I’m stumped.

My website is http://odai.me, and so instead of the default “wp-content/uploads” folder for media, I switched it to “http://odai.me/dia” (Get it?)

Here’s a screenshot of my Media settings, just to verify.

The issue is, after uploading any file, it shows in my Library, but isn’t accessible. If it’s a picture, it shows a broken thumbnail (screenshot here). Even files that were uploaded when things were working, are no longer accessible.

I went into cPanel, to see if the files were uploading. And the thing is, they are. In the “Dia” sub-directory, the files are indeed there. I can even view them from within cPanel! But if I try to view them by typing in the URL, I get this.

…

I’m guessing there’s some sort of confusion on what the permalink should be. Why? Take this photo, which should be hosted at

• http://odai.me/dia/heckyes.jpg

Instead, if I click “View” in my media library, it takes me to

• http://odai.me/?attachment_id=2157

It still isn’t showing, but it’s the right page template for media, so that’s something. Here’s what the picture should be, from my Twitter.

…

It’s probably worth mentioning that if I use WP’s built-in photo editor, I can actually see the pictures (screenshot here). So on some level, WP can find the file. It just can’t display it.

One last thing – I uploaded these screenshots by FTP, of course 😉 Again, thank you to anyone who took the time to read this and/or help me out.
