Uploading and title issues

  • I am having two issues with the site I am currently working on. You can find the site here:

    https://www.mediaaccess.org/wordpress/

    First, I can’t seem to fix the title of the page. In the script it’s only written as <title>Media Access Project</title> but it still shows up with the Legal Filings | mark as well. When I open firebug it says that the Legal filings portion is IN the title, when in the php file, it isn’t. Is there somewhere else I should be looking?

    Second, maybe I don’t understand the uploading process that well, but here’s what I need:
    – I need to be able to upload pdf files through the back end of wordpress. As of right now, I get an error. “Error saving media attachment.” I’ve done the changes on the stickied post, but it doesn’t seem to work.
    – When I am able to upload these files, will I have a direct link to them?
    – Is there anyway that I can categorize these files with my categories already set in place? If so, can I do something similar to the Category Page Plugin, where I can list say…the 5 most recent pdf uploads associated with that category?
    – Finally, can I create a page with an archive of all of these uploads on their own?

    Thanks so much to anyone who responds!

  • 1. Are you running any SEO plugins? Have you tried deactivating all plugins to see if this resolves the problem? If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).

    2. Is that the only error message you receive when you try to upload a pdf file? Can you upload any other files via WP? Images? .doc files etc?

    You can’t categorize attachments (uploaded files) as such but you might be able to list certain attachments using get_posts

    Brilliant. It was the SEO plugin I was using. Title error fixed. Thank you.

    Secondly, that is the error I receive when I use the browser uploader. When I use the flash uploader, I get “The uploaded file could not be moved to /var/www/vhosts/mediaaccess.org/httpdocs/wordpress/wp-content/uploads.”
    The files are writeable. And no, I can’t upload any files to WordPress. I’ll go through and try the stickied post help thing one more time (in case maybe I messed up it before.) Any other suggestions?

    Thanks again!

    Try changing the permissions on the wp-content directory to 766. If you still have problems, try 767 or 777. Once your uploads are working, change the permissions on wp-content back to 755 again and check that everything still works OK.

    Unfortunately that was my first inclination. It still hasn’t worked. I’ve done the stickied post suggestions a second time with no go. Should I list the plugins I use and maybe there is something there that is conflicting? Thanks.

    Is there still no other solution for this issue?
