Thread: Problem Uploading Pictures

Problem Uploading Pictures

I have just reinstalled wordpress.

It won't let me upload media. I'm using the vantage theme. However, even before installing the theme trying to upload pictures doesn't seem to work.

Don't know if it helps, but my website address is www.fitbase.co.uk

Help please!

Thanks

Jack

Can anyone help me with this?

I think it must be a problem with wordpress because i have just changed my hosting and reinstalled wordpress and it still doesn't work. Or could it possibly a problem with my internet provider? Although i'm using BT in the UK and never had problems on previous wordpress sites.

Please help people!

Found then answer

We found that the .htaccess file in wp-content/uploads/ was preventing you from loading the images:

<Files *.php>
deny from all
</Files><Files *.css.php>
allow from all
</Files>

The file has been renamed from .htaccess to .htaccess.bak to prevent the above file access rules from coming into effect and images are now being displayed correctly in the Media Library.
