It’s a strange issue that would be handy to have resolved but at least i have a bit of a work around. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [dreaded 'failed to upload'](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/dreaded-failed-to-upload/) * Thread Starter [dekay1981](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dekay1981/) * (@dekay1981) * [14 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/dreaded-failed-to-upload/#post-2466249) * been playing with /wp-content/ permission’s and it seems the issue might be setting that to 777 to make upload work but this in inherantly unsafe. Is there a chance the uplaod scripts have been alterd from Owner to Public to allow upload. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [dreaded 'failed to upload'](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/dreaded-failed-to-upload/) * Thread Starter [dekay1981](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dekay1981/) * (@dekay1981) * [14 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/dreaded-failed-to-upload/#post-2466238) * Like i said, this really has nothing to do with what i’m uploading, there is a problem somewhere with the new version of wordpress. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [dreaded 'failed to upload'](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/dreaded-failed-to-upload/) * Thread Starter [dekay1981](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dekay1981/) * (@dekay1981) * [14 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/dreaded-failed-to-upload/#post-2466237) * no the image im uploading is a the screenshot * scroll down to the bottom of this [post](http://www.sam-weston.co.uk/blog/?p=828) it’s to go with the rest of the screen shots * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [dreaded 'failed to upload'](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/dreaded-failed-to-upload/) * Thread Starter [dekay1981](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dekay1981/) * (@dekay1981) * [14 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/dreaded-failed-to-upload/#post-2466235) * Contrary to some replies i’m seeing from admin’s/mod’s, it seems there is a wide spread problem with image upload in general. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [dreaded 'failed to upload'](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/dreaded-failed-to-upload/) * Thread Starter [dekay1981](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dekay1981/) * (@dekay1981) * [14 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/dreaded-failed-to-upload/#post-2466185) * this is one of [them](http://www.sam-weston.co.uk/degree-stuff/screenshot/ss-01-01.jpg) * Got to say though i don’t there is an issue with the images i’m uploading, been doing it for 3 years now 🙂 * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [dreaded 'failed to upload'](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/dreaded-failed-to-upload/) * Thread Starter [dekay1981](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dekay1981/) * (@dekay1981) * [14 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/dreaded-failed-to-upload/#post-2466181) * tried the drag and drop, select files, and browser uploader. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [dreaded 'failed to upload'](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/dreaded-failed-to-upload/) * Thread Starter [dekay1981](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dekay1981/) * (@dekay1981) * [14 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/dreaded-failed-to-upload/#post-2466177) * on the image side i’ve tried jpg (rgb and cmyk), png and gif and there all approx 191 Kb, did try one that was 14Mb too, direct download off my camera (not raw).
