Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: dashboard issuesI asked the Dreamhost tech support, and they say it’s not them
aging off or removing my mp3 files. S/he says
to upload the mp3s again using Cyberduck (FTP) to the audio subdirectory in the root
and point the audio linking tool in the WP Dashboard to that URL. I see the mp3s in the Media Library on the WP Dashboard, but I can’t seem to access them using the WP Dashboard media linking facility to restore them to my blog posts.So I wonder why I have to upload them again with FTP? It’s all so….strange…or I’m an idiot.
Or both.

In reply to: dashboard issuesHi,
I got hosting space and installed WordPress on dreamhost.com,
or my amigo did it or me. We uploaded the mp3 sound files with no
problem in April when we did the website, and then they disappeared two months later. I managed to Braile my way thru with an FTP program in June and put them back. But now they are gone again! I see the mp3 files in the Media Library on WP, but the link that was created when we uploaded the files to a blog post keeps getting broken, the mp3 files have disappeared. A link that was created when I created the blog post, for example: audio:http://www.eztechnicalenglish.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/hit-the-ground-running.mp3|titles=hit the ground running]This mp3 file disappeared. I guess I’m not clear where WP ends and Dreamhost begins! Or maybe not clear about the concept at all.
Thanks!

In reply to: dashboard issuesHi,
I’ve been struggling with my sound files disappearing, they are very small mp3 files I uploaded in April when we did my website. I read that I have to pay an upgrade fee for WordPress to support mp3 files. I’m willing to do that, but I can’t find an “Upgrade” tab on my Dashboard which I understand is the payment vehicle. I’ve been over the Dashboard with a fine tooth comb and I don’t see it.
What am I missing?
Thanks so much,
Bob G.
