In reply to: Broken images in media librarySame here.
I followed the broken image, and got a 403.
Forbidden
You don’t have permission to access /icon.png on this server.
Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
Looks like a permissions problem, though I don’t have SSH to be sure.

In reply to: Stuck in "Session expired." when trying to customize a themeMy wordpress home is at mydomain.com/parkeddomain.com/wordpress
And the site url is http://www.parkeddomain.com.
None of the move documentation addresses this at all. They all assume mydomain.com/…/wordpress is going to be for a website at (www.)mydomain.com.

In reply to: Stuck in "Session expired." when trying to customize a themeAnd now I’ve also tried adding WP_HOME and WP_SITEURL to the wp-config.php, but that messes up the admin dashboard even more, and it’s impossible to tell if customize works.

In reply to: Stuck in "Session expired." when trying to customize a theme(edited from original post)
WordPress 4.2.2
Theme is now Twenty Fifteen
All plug-ins are disabled.Not just an hour ago, I was logged in on two browsers (Chrome and FF). After sorting out other problems, I ran into this one.
Whenever trying to customize a theme, I get:
“Session expired. Please log in again. You will not move away from this page.”I’ve tried removing the www from the site name, as mentioned in 2-3 year old threads; no effect. I’ve tried every theme I have installed, including all these official wordpress ones: 2010, 2012-2015. Live previews also don’t work, same result.
Everything on Chrome is set to recommended, I even added my site to always allow, no change.
I tried logging in with FF to see if it was just Chrome, but it doesn’t matter. I’ve checked, and I’m good on cookies: https://en.support.wordpress.com/third-party-cookies/
(Because editing was no longer allowed)

In reply to: My account admin has been banned(?)!To answer my own question:
You can go into your FTP and disable all plug-ins by going to the wp-content directory and changing the “plugins” folder to “plugins.hold”
This will save all plugin settings, but disable them until you can get back into admin.
Luckily this problem is not a result of any base wp settings. For me, it seems to be caused by: wpsecureops-bruteforce-protect.
Although in a search, this or messages like this, will come up for a variety of security “solutions” which can result in the admin being locked out (probably along with any other accounts you’d like to try on your home IP).

In reply to: Subdirectory and SubdomainI wrestled with this too. WP does not like using both of those fields. Pick one or the other. For a subdomain to work, you need to pick the other, which means customizing your subdomain.
The simplest way is to set up your subdomain so that it points to your uploads folder (wp-content/uploads by default)
In this case it would be:
Store uploads in this folder: (blank) Full URL path to files: http://media.mywebsite.comAnd your subdomain, media.mywebsite.com needs to point to the wp-content/uploads location.
A more complex system is described here:
http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-change-the-default-media-upload-location-in-wordpress-3-5/This lets you change the default folder from wp-content/uploads to anything else, like media. However, this folder must be within your wp directories.
If you have wordpress installed into the root, you could point this to your subdomain. But if you installed in something like wordpress/, you’d need to create wordpress/media, set that as default as described in the link. For your site that would be:
define( 'UPLOADS', ''.'media' );I’m not able to get this method to reliably work with my subdomain, though. There’s probably something additional needed to the config to get it to change the upload directory and use another url, but I don’t know what it is.
