• Hi everyone, I love the new wordpress version with the exception of the fact that it is much harder for me to insert images now. The new “add medi” option does not want to work for me.

    1. When I go to upload an image, that works fine but I can’t seem to be able to insert said image into a post without switching to the code part of wordpress and inserting the IMG tags and having to type out the really long link to the image manually? I really miss the old way of inserting images into posts, is that buried in 2.5 somewhere? I was using 2.33 originally before this

  • For me, the media uploader is uploading my images to the wp-admin directory. Is anyone else experiencing this?

    My images are being uploaded where they are supposed to be and the images still wont show up in posts on homepage.

    Ahh, I can’t the the only one!

    As far as the .htaccess file, you can edit that in your favorite text editor. But you may have to create one if you hadn’t added one to that directory before for some reason.

    I was having this same issue, getting an http error on image upload when using the media manager. I had my whole blog password protected via a .htaccess pwd instead of using WordPress’ “password protect blog” setting. Disabled the .htpassword for my blog and all is well.

    I’ve had this problem since 2.5.1 and hoped upgrading to 2.6 would solve it.

    It didn’t.

    I followed the upgrade directions to the letter, so I was not overwriting any files. Allt he fiels are new. Flash is updated.

    The probelem happens on both FF and IE7 on any computer I use, so it’s not my browser. Furhter, on another 2.6 blog I contribute to it works fine, so it’s not even my own comptuer with the problem.

    The error console box says the error is character 1 of line 4 of media-upload.php and the error is PERMISSION DENIED.

    However, I have not been able to find any post that talks about permissions. It’s undoubtedly 1&1 and their crappy Linux hosting server (business package) but please someone tell me what permission needs to be set where.
