I’d go with the wordpress starter plan – the server they’ll put you on is specifically created for wordpress websites.

I believe that plan will also give you the ability to easily install wordpress through your control panel.

I’ve spent HOURS trying to find a long-term solution while waiting for WordPress to update.

The image upload will work for a couple days then sporadically stop working, and eventually stop working altogether.

I disabled all plugins and switched to the 2016 theme. Works like a charm every time. If I switch to my custom theme it’ll eventually (after a few days) stop working again.

I’m on a shared server so I can’t update the Imagick module as WP suggests. I know that’s not the ultimate solution, but that works for now.

I’d also like to note that all the functions.php fix (as facter mentioned) and other htaccess edits didn’t work for me either… theme switching was the only crappy solution.

Hope that helps other people who cannot update the Imagick module! ??

Thank you – feel free to remove this post.

I have resolved this issue.

My host requires that I set the permissions to 777, rather than 755, on the plugin directory. Perhaps an extra note in the error message would be helpful for other users in the future.

As soon as I updated the permissions my markers came back. Hope this info helps!
