Pictures and installing wordpress

Thursday, March 19th, 2009

Installing wordpress is easy if you follow the famous five minute guide.  I had a problem with images.  They were sort of uploading!

I found the problem to be that in Miscellaneous -> Settings, the upload area was set to wp-content.  The code seemed to default to wp-content/upload and ignore that setting.  So I deleted the entry and created folder “upload” that was writeable to all (chmod a+w) under wp-content.  Check the ownership of the folder on your web server so its the same as the other folders.

Voila – see image below:
