• Hi all,

    I have a wordpress and every time a user uploads images to a post, it is not showing up.
    And i get the message update database required when i go to the admin.

    There is also something happening with the file permission on the images, so every time this happens i need to manually change the permissions using ftp.

    When i upload the images it is not a problem. only when the other users do this.
    Even when they use my account they have the same problem.

    I tried before to compare the database number to the wp-config file but this didn’t help.
    I also update wordpress and the plugins i’m using…

    Anybody else had this issue before?

    Thanks in advance!

    Try changing the permissions on the wp-content directory to 766. If you still have problems, try 767, 775 or 777. Once your uploads are working, change the permissions on wp-content back to 755 again and check that everything still works OK.

    With regard to your db issues, have you tried:

    – deactivating all plugins to see if this resolves the problem. If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).

    – switching to the default theme to rule out any theme-specific problems.

    resetting the plugins folder by FTP or PhpMyAdmin. Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause problems.

    – re-uploading all files & folders – except the wp-content folder and wp-config.php & root .htaccess files – from a fresh download of WordPress. Make sure that you delete the old copies of files & folder before uploading the new ones.

    and when was the last time you repaired your database tables?

    Hi,

    Thanks for the reply, I will try your suggestions.
    The only problem is that the website is in use, so i don’t want to break it.
    So probably i will do it at night…

    I updated my database tables today 3 times, because i had to do it everytime the user tried to upload an image.
