In reply to: Permissions TroubleThanks but this does not solve the problem completely. The problem seems to be with organizing the uploads into month and year based folders. Although I had correctly CHMODed my perrmissions on the wp-content/uploads folder to 777, the year and month folders had not been created yet. I assume that normally these are created on the fly based on the current time. However, on Media Temples’s shared servers php is set to “Safe Mode” so the new year/month folders were could not be created. If I manually created them through ftp then I could upload the images just fine.
Now one solution seems to be just manually creating dozens of empty month and year folders for the future and setting them to 777. However, I think this Safe Mode issue is actually causing lots of other problems on my site. For example, when I create a new user, make them an author, and then login as that new user all I see is the Dashboard and Profile tabs! No other options are available to the user despite being an author.
So, it looks like I am going to try having Media Temple turn off “Safe Mode” which will force all php scripts to run as cgi scripts. Form what I understand this will make things run slower but I’m not sure what other options I have. Any suggestions?
I’ve seen some other forum posts dicussing using .htaccess files to get around the Safe Mode issues but from what I understand from Media Temple’s support staff this does the same thing as turning off Safe Mode in that it forces php to run as cgi.

In reply to: Categories/Discussion etc not selectableI am having the same problem described above. I am using wordpress 2.0.4, Firefox 1.5, and Win xp.
There are no plus signs next to the blue boxes for Categories, etc. If I very slowly move my mouse from right to left across the right edge of the blue box I can sometimes get a “finger” icon for the mouse and click and open the field. Otherwise it is the “move” icon.
I have checked the location of the toggle.gif and dbx.js and both are on my server in the correct locations. I have not changed the admin.css at all so I assume it is fine.
Please help. Thanks.
