Edit Image fails in Upload Midia

    When I click “Edit Image” in Upload Midia, I see only a small icon for the image, and can’t edit or position the image at all.

    I′ve seen this problem reported on earlier versions of WP, but did not find a solution. Any ideas as to why this is happening?

    I’d like to be able to use this feature to position some images and crop the part of them.

    Looking forward to you help…

  • These are the usual causes of this problem:

    1. Your wordpress might be corrupted, so that means you will need to upgrade. Don’t forget to backup too.

    2. If updating wordpress does not solve the problem, you may want to check if there’s a conflicting plugin. Deactivate your plugins one at a time.

    Vince,

    I am working with fresh installs of WP 4.3, with no plugins at all, and theme Twenty Fifteen.

    The problem happens right after uploading the image, when I click on “Edit Image” on the Attachment Details panel of the Featured Image page: WP shows the Edit Image page with a tiny “stop sign” where the image should be.

    I’ve seen the same problem in 4 different installations of WP 4.3 (two in pt-br and two in en-us language). Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Thanks,

    /Francisco

    Problem Solved.

    As per other references to the same problem, I simply added GD support in PHP, and that solved the problem. In order to add GD support to PHP, simply remove the semi-colon in the extension line in PHP.INI:

    ;extension=php_gd2.dll

    Thanks to all.
