Picture uploader says bad request

help please

Chill, you’ve only given it 7 minutes.

Anyway. Are your file upload settings correct?
Admin > Settings > Miscellaneous

What should the settings be set at??? I am having the same issue with posint a photo on home page. I keep getting a X in box.. please help…

There’s no right answer, it can vary for different configs, the default is shown in the text to the right of the option in admin page.

That is what mine is set at, Default. Do you have any idea why I am getting them X’s?? https://www.southern-autosport.com

I have spent days on this and cannot figure it out. I even bought the book (WordPress for Dummies) and still at point A

Look in your folders, possibly above your WordPress directory..

This happens on my local install, i have to use /www/wp-content/uploads/ (i’m not suggesting you use this path for yours – it’s just for illustration)

If you don’t find one in a parent folder, try adding the last dash on (if it’s not on your upload path already)..

Where would I find my WordPress Directory??

I also looked at my settings and is as wp-content/uploads

There’s nothing wrong with your uploads path, it works..

The problem are these lines..

<a href="" rel="lightbox" title=""><img src="" alt="" height="106" width="106"></a><br />

Pointing at an image with no url.. (i should of checked the page before the first reply really .. *sigh*, lol)..

ok, So what do I need to do?

Find out where you’ved added that code, or what’s adding it, then either fix it or remove.

I do appreciate all your help. I know I am probably getting on your nerves and I do apologize.

But where would I start to look for the info that you say is incorrect?

Also, once I found it, what must I do or put in place ?

There’s a lightbox refence in the code i mentioned above, so it’s proberly related to a lightbox plugin..

It could be in the plugin or something related to that plugin placed into the theme..

Since the problem element is in your sidebar, i’d guess it’s either in the sidebar file or in some widget code… that’s as good a guess i can make, so hope it helps…

And don’t worry about my nerves, if you bothered me, i’d not bother replying… ??

Ok my site is oscar-elochim.co.uk no pictures showing not even the background and when i try to upload pictures it says bad request what have i done wrong?

help please
