I just wanted to throw my “aha” into the ring. I have been struggling with a similar problem to furby, and thanks to jleuze pointing me to the issue of where wordpress looks for the upload folder in settings, I have sorted things out!

Up until now, everyone seems to point to permissions as the most likely culprit for uploads not working, but i long ago changed them only to have the problem persist.

At jleuze’s suggestion, i checked out the Setting for uploads under Miscellaneous. At first I thought all looked well and almost moved on, but then tried to delete the leading “/” that was there. Ta-daa! Now the media uploader works!! I don’t know how it got in there (wasn’t this a default setting?), but my media imports like a champ, now!

I’m having the same problems of the admin theme editor reverting to the original when I hit “Update”. I have read about file permissions, and to the best of my knowledge changed the permissions through FTP to 777 (temporarily)… but still the problem persists… is there some “global” permission that i’m missing? this has all been a problem since I updated to 2.7

mountainsage, if you are trying to edit RTL Stylesheet, that may be part of your problem, as style.css and not rtl.css is directing your display.

Thanks for any insights…

In your browser, visit https://www.melbourneishome.com/wp-admin, and log in to your dashboard, where you can access your theme editor.

Or… use an ftp program (like FileZilla) to download your themes folders to your computer to edit with Wordpad, then upload again.

Thanks zeniph…

I didn’t realize how big the header files were. I thought I had saved them adequately small… but no…

I have remedied this, and now they are displaying on my IE! This was my biggest problem, so thank you.

Now.. does anyone know why my header seems “scaled” correctly in FF, but is displaying a little gap to the right of the header image in IE?

And why do the page titles start so far down the sidebar in IE, but not in FF? Does IE or FF rank what css code it reads first, second, etc., and do I therefore have competing or redundant code?

Thanks!
