Uploading Files

    Hi,

    I feel dumb trying to figure out how to upload files to a library.
    I have a wordpress and the filr plugin installed on a local-machine webserver for testing purposes, have setup a few libraries setup and have tried to upload files – however when I use the library shortcode on a new page, the library list comes up empty.

    Also, the folders setup for uploads remain empty – the new numbered folders are created when I upload a file, but no files.

    For testing purposes, all restrictions are turned off.

    I know it’s a bit vague, but what could I be missing?
    Thank you.

    Hey @vincewaters,

    additionally to my answer here: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/file-uploads-but-doesnt-show/#post-14375597

    Have you checked that the directory is actually writeable?
    I don’t think so, but maybe you are running a windows server, maybe?

    hi @patrickposner

    Currently I am running MAMP on Windows 10 to test out some stuff locally before I move to an actual production server. I am also an admin on this machine and have checked directory permissions – they seems to be OK.

    One thing I noticed is that when I upload a file, a new numbered directory is created (for example 43), but is empty. The file DOES show up though in the library browser through the plugin, but then still not accessible through the library on a page.

    I am running a trial version of Pro, it’s activated, and currently have all restrictions turned OFF (again, now just for testing purposes).

    I have also just added these values to .htaccess to increase file size limits:
    php_value upload_max_filesize 12M
    php_value post_max_size 13M
    php_value memory_limit 15M
