Awesome. Thanks a million, that worked perfectly!

I really appreciate your help with this. I’m not sure it does support authors, but I don’t think so. Either way, can I add it to the Portfolio post page in WP admin?

The Co-Authors Plus UI doesn’t appear in the Add/Edit Portfolio item page. I can’t see any Co-Authors Plus-related JavaScript errors either. Is there a specific error I need to look out for?

Ok. Now that does sound strange! How are you checking the folder permissions? Is there a control panel that you can login to, that aloows you to view the folder permissions?

First of all, did you copy (FTP) the folders from your local version of WordPress to your online (server) version of WordPress?

WordPress creates these other images for thumbnail purposes. So, don;t worry about that … it’s normal. In relation to your permissions problem, the issue resides with the read permissions. You obviously have write permissions, as the file does upload.

Try checking the permissions on all sub-folders too. So, for example, uploads > 2012 > 05 … each of these folders must have their permissions set to 755.

Worst case scenario, delete the folders manually. Then recreate them with the correct permissions manually. It’s a pain in the ass … believe me, I know … but it does work.

I had the same problem a while back. It was down to the permissions set by WordPress. I can guess that you probably copied the “uploads” directory to your server? In that case, the permissions are fine on the folders copied up, but new folder permissions are not set correctly by WordPress. You may have to set these permissions to 755 manually … as I did.

The path to the uploaded files folders is:

wp-content/uploads/

… if you are using Dreamweaver (or another FTP application) … you should be able to set/change the permissions by getting the properties of each folder.

You’ll need to set the permissions for each folder (including the uploads folder) that you added/FTP’d to the remote site. Any folders created by WordPress will automatically set the permissions to 755.

I actually sorted this problem for myself. It maybe not solve yours, but it was a permissions problem with the folders I copied over to the remote server. The permissions need to be set to 755 … so I changed the folder permissions to 755, and it solved my problem. Good luck!

Thanks for your help. It was a permissions fault on the folders that was causing the problem. I must have happened when I copied the folders from my localhost site.

This is the only thing in the cgierror.log file:

PHP Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /wp-includes/shortcodes.php on line 296
PHP Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /web/wp-includes/shortcodes.php on line 296

(process:15450): libgnomevfs-WARNING **: Unable to create ~/.gnome2 directory: No such file or directory

… does this make any sense to you? I appreciate you help, btw!

Ok. I uploaded an PHP file that outputs whats enabled on my server … and GD is enabled.

How do I check that? That option doesn’t seem to exit on my hosting company’s control panel!!

I’m having the exact same problem. It all worked (and still does) fine on my localhost, but WordPress on a remote server will upload/crunch … but then no thumbnail appears in the Media Library. Attached to a post doesn’t work either … but strangely, when I choose to edit the item, it appears … but only when I click edit. FTP shows me the image, so it does upload. There just seems to be something broke in the upload process.

Did you solve this problem?
