Hello,

I’m having the same issue. Last week I was working with the twenty fourteen theme and all was going fine.

Today I have installed a child theme called “The Falcon” of twenty fourteen.

Now each time I try to upload a media image it gives me “HTTP error” and fails to upload.

With my basic knowledge, I have found the uploads folder on my FTP (verified as correct because my older uploads were sitting there) and manually uploaded the image. After this, it still does not reflect in my media library.

Help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Hello,

This piece of code did the trick for me (WP4.5):

add_filter( 'wp_image_editors', 'change_graphic_lib' );

function change_graphic_lib($array) {
return array( 'WP_Image_Editor_GD', 'WP_Image_Editor_Imagick' );
}

Add the above mentioned code in the functions.php of your currently active theme. I did place the code right after the “<?php “.

Hope this helps!

Same happening for me. Deactivated all plugins and tried new theme. NO LUCK. Now trying plugin above. This update has been a mess for me on many fronts!

Same here

I found this worked:

Correcting the HTTP Upload Error

Log into your cPanel dashboard.

Using the file manager, navigate to your WordPress site’s root directory.

Locate and open the .htaccess file for editing.

Add the following line of code at the top of the file:

SetEnv MAGICK_THREAD_LIMIT 1

Save the changes to the .htaccess file.

Hey @doctormicro

Thank you! This bit of code finally worked:

SetEnv MAGICK_THREAD_LIMIT 1

After hours of trying to work it out (I thought it was a Wordfence Firewall issue at first), this worked.

THANK YOU!

Another reminder, if this is a bug in WordPress (which I am fairly certain it is), please add your evidence to the bug report at https://core.trac.www.ads-software.com/ticket/36534 so that it will be appropriately addressed.

Thank you artedesigner.
Your code works for me too ??

Hi All,

Still having the same issue here.

@ DoctorMicro and NealGhoshal
I tried using your steps above and it did not work (my site wouldn’t load due to internal error). Can you please elaborate on where you copied the code in the .htaccess file? My file starts with “# BEGIN….”

@ smashingjay
Thanks for your work on this, please keep us updated if you find a resolution! Unfortunately I do not have the extra time to run tests at this stage.
