Title: problem making upload work… Last modified: August 18, 2016 --- # problem making upload work… * Resolved [djduffy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/djduffy/) * (@djduffy) * [20 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-making-upload-work/) * Setting up WP latest and having trouble getting upload to work. I see lots of discussion of setting permissions. Via my FTP client, it does show 755. * I’m confused about the paths under misc options: recommends: /home/virtual/site245/ fst/var/www/html/wp/wp-content However, I use /var/www/html/wp/wp-content/uploads/ in the FTP client. I’d like uploads to go in subfolder. I’m not sure if /home… stuff is required, or is the problem. * Also URI I have used: [http://www.darkbeautyin3d.com/wp/wp-content/uploads](http://www.darkbeautyin3d.com/wp/wp-content/uploads) * ../wp-conent/uploads is present and is 755. * Any suggestions?
