Image trouble after loading wordpress site to new server

  • Hi,
    i just transferred my wordpress site from my computer where I had it set up locally to my web host server. I uploaded it thru the program filezilla. The site comes up but none of the images are showing up. It looks like the pathway for the images is still set to my files on my computer. Any idea on how to change this problem. Here is the url for the site.

  • This has got to be one the top five annoying things about WP core design. WP inserts full paths into the database, rather than paths relative to the host, meaning you have to search and replace the database to move images. Here, read this. I am pretty sure there is aplugin to assist this process but I can’t find it. Maybe someone else can point you to it.

    One question. What folder is the code for image location stored in?

    You should take a look at this:

    Also, in the interim, a regular expression redirection rule should help you just to get online while you fix the root of the problem.

    The plugin to help you with this is called Redirection.

    Hi,

    Check with these options:

    – Assign 755 recursive permissions to wp-content folder of your blog.
    – Check with default theme to ruled out theme level issue
    – upgrade your wordpress to the latest version
    – add this code in htaccess:

    <IfModule mod_security.c>
SecFilterEngine Off
SecFilterScanPOST Off
</IfModule>

    Thanks,
