Any idea?
I'm experiencing the same challenge, myapp. I've just purchased, installed (according to
all of the instructions
) and generally things seem to be working. However I have the same issues with the images. I think this may somehow be related to the different way that WordPress MU deals with uploaded images vs. the standard
WP. Though I'm not sure why it would matter if we are still creating the /uploads/classipress/ directory and setting appropriate permissions.
In WPMU, images are uploaded to a blogs directory and inside there, a folder corresponding to the ID of the site your dealing with. So, in my instance,
http://Classifieds.inVerdeValley.com would be uploading to
wp-content/blogs.dir/29 (or whatever the actual ID is.)
The kicker, however is that WPMU will then rewrite the image URL's, and I think this might be were ClassiPress is having difficulties with displaying images (that it thinks should be uploaded to /uploads/classipress/). We are able to see that lightbox pop up of the uploaded image because I believe that it is uploaded using native WPMU upload functions (obviously, I could be wrong, terribly wrong! But I think this might help to solve the challenge!)
WPMU will rewrite the display URL's for the img src to something similar to:
http://classifieds.inverdevalley.com/fi ... 162262.jpg" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; (This was the test image I uploaded during the first ad creation process.) As you can see, the "classipress" directory was created inside that structure (I didn't create that one, honest!)
So, not really sure where this goes from here, but I'll definitely be monitoring this thread to see if we can come up with a solution that works with us WPMU users.
Thanks!
