• I just installed 2.7 but I am having problems with the uploader.

    Initially I had problems with the Flash uploader now showing up, so I re-uploaded the swfupload folder and got the Flash uploader to apprear again.

    Now I try to upload the file in the Flash uploader and it shows the file to be uploaded but the progress bar never moves, and doesn’t upload the file. I also tried the standard uploader and nothing happens.

    I have my uploads folder writable. My max upload and post are well above the actual file size that I am uploading.

    Any ideas?

    If you missed those files, you may have missed others too.

    My advice is to try uploading *everything* again. wp-admin and wp-includes, specifically.

    I have serious problems too. It’s a plugin conflict (or several). When I disable all my plugins, the uploader works, but certain plugins cause conflicts in combination with others, or so it seems. For example, if I add any of the following plugins to my other plugins, the uploader stops working and I get HTTP errors (both on the flash uploader and normal uploader): OpenID, WP-Polls, YARPP, Twitter for WordPress, WP-Print, WP-Postviews, Dofollow, Headspace2 (etc). It seems to be a problem when some plugins are used together, as certain ones will work on their own and allow image uploading.

    What can I do? Disabling all plugins is not a practical solution. The image uploader has been a problem for me for some time now even before 2.7 and I have implemented the changes in my htaccess file to no effect. Is there an alternative plugin that allows the same as the WP uploader? Everything in 2.7 is working well apart from the uploader…

    I should add that the uploader throws up a HTTP error, but still uploads the image. However, no thumbnails or re-sized versions are generated.

    Let me try disabling the plugins and see if that is the issue on mine.

    Otto42. I did re-upload those directories but it still isn’t working.

    Tremor: I tried disabling all my plugins but I couldn’t get it working that way either.

    Please let me know if you find a solution.

    Just tried the uploader + all my plugins on another computer (running XP). I am using Vista on my own machine. All my plugins except for OpenID work with the uploader on the XP machine. So I’m thinking that it’s something to do with the flash drivers i have installed on Vista. Can any moderators comment on this please?

    Note, smaller images will upload, but big images get HTTP errors, both on the XP setup and Vista

    So, try uploading on a different computer/version of windows.
