Just want to upload image (no post or page)

    A client I created a blog for wants to upload banner ads that will run in the header. How can they upload an image via the super simple WP interface but not do it via the Write a Post/Write a Page interface?

    I prefer to keep it simple rather than tell them to FTP the image up. They are comfortable editing the html in the header.php file to update the gif code.

    Thanks!

    So, maybe this isn’t possible? Just wonderin’ ??

    if they’re comfortable editing the php in the header, then they should be comfortable with FTP – but if not… then why not just upload via the write post page? they don’t actually have to write a post.

    either way – why would this be possible, do you reckon? WordPress isn’t a file management utility, in fact it’s generally expected that people be able to FTP the wordpress files up to their host, right?

    Maybe as the web designer, you should create a nice little image uploader for your client.

    Great idea, but the client didn’t have the budget. Maybe I’ll build one for myself for future use.

    I did find the Ad Rotator plugin and that helped make things a lot easier for the client:
