images won’t show wordpress’s fault! lol maybe someone could help ?

Hi,

I’m also a newbie having the same problem. Unfortunately, you can’t specify an image folder that way (I really wish I could). Instead you have to use the Upload utilty that’s on the write post/write page panels. After uploading, you select how the graphic is to be displayed and how you want to link to the graphic then click “Send to Editor”.

The big gotcha is that *everything* goes into one big uploads folder. That includes inline graphics, gallery images, tar files that others can download. Everything.

A way to specify the upload location on a case-by-case basis would be great.

A second (and perhaps trivial) problem is that the image src is specified as an absolute URL. You can’t use “images/my_graphic.png”. I know, picky picky, lol.

The clue you need is that the WP theme (and main) php is running when you ask for a simple .jpg from your browser. Your themes’s 404.php is running

I suspect yet another .htaccess problem or much less likely an Apache configuration problem. It might be a permissions problem on the images directory but a wacked .htaccess is my first guess. Switch to default permalinks and delete what’s in .htaccess and never use Frontpage or dreamweaver to edit or upload things. That’s only a guess.

oops!

Correction: You can specify a directory structure for uploads based on dates under Options > Misc. Still, it would be nice to have an “images” folder, a “pub” folder and so on.

Before the oops edit,

I agree. The fancy new upload stuff is broken from a perspectives. I tried yesterday to upload a pict using the wordpress 2.2.1 screens, just to see what people are complaing about and it’s seriously non-intuitive. It works if you find the proper sequence and chicken dance. Someone should file a bug report.

ok! not really sure what that meant, I want to keep my postname permalinks though…

24hrknight.com/post-name is where I want to be.

Does this mean that I can’t have an images folder? I don’t really know what to do… anyone else able to help or can you elab?

thanks!

drewsecret, Reset the permalinks to default and clean out the .htaccess file UNTIL you find the problem. Might take be a few minutes or a few days. Once you/we find the problem you can switch back to what you want

I believe this could be a problem with super cache… or caching plugins that write stuff to your .htaccess file. I’m not sure how to fix it other then by commenting out all the cache stuff in your .htaccess file.
