doh – im just a bit dumb with chmod… shouldve been chmod 750 on the wp-content dir. oh well.

turns out this one is better.

& i found that in wordpress/options/miscellaneous the recommended directories wont work due to permissions, & if you 766 the permissions on the /wp-content/ directory, then the image browser button wont appear! catch 22! i’d assume its because the plugins directory lives in the wp-content directory, & likes its permissions left as -is for some reason?

so, after much farting about, i found i had to puta “gallery” directory OUTSIDE the entire blog directory (root of my site) to get it to work.

yo, thanks for the link to the plug-in! i’ll give that a try when i get home. im totally new to wordpress & this forum, so sorry if im a bit clueless regarding what it does & doesnt do! & yeah, big ups to the developers of free software – wicked effort, maximum respect, etc. ;>)

oh, another reason i liked that “upload file/image” button in b2 – at work, i cant ftp through our firewall, but that button did work, so i could still upload easily – very handy indeed.

i like how b2 lets you upload an image from within the blog editor, & just drops the code straight in… thats really handy… how come wordpress cant do that? i just installed wordpress after using b2 for 2 years, & i’m already missing that function…
