 * Hi,
 * I am using your fantastic theme (v 2.0.5), but it seems i cannot upload my logo
   image in the customization panel.
    It simply does nothing : when i click “Select
   a file…”, it opens a file chooser window, but opening a file does nothing. Alternatively,
   if i drag and drop a file, nothing occurs.
 * Can you please help ?
    Thank you very much

 * Upload you image into the Media Library first
 * Media -> Add New
 * Then when you go into your customisation panel you can choose a file from your
   media library instead of uploading.

 * Thank you Tareq for your answer!
    My image is already in my library, but i have
   no possibility to choose from it in customization panel, the link select a file
   opens directly a local browser, no way to get it from media library. Can you 
   explain where i can take the logo from image library please ?

 * Hi,
 * Thanks for using JBST in the first place, and thanks again for posting your issue,
   this helps me to make JBST better.
 * Unfortunately i found this issue before: [https://github.com/bassjobsen/jamedo-bootstrap-start-theme/issues/74](https://github.com/bassjobsen/jamedo-bootstrap-start-theme/issues/74)
 * Most problem are related to file rights although it still seems useful to get
   a message about what’s wrong.
 * Solution for uploading images (check the rights of your upload folders);
    chmod
   0777 wp-contents/uploads/ or chmod -R 0777 wp-contents/uploads/
 * Could you check the above and let me know this will fix your issue? Thanks

 * [@munger41](https://wordpress.org/support/users/munger41/) thank you too, for
   your suggestion.
    To logo upload uses WP_Customize_Image_Control ([http://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Customize_Image_Control](http://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Customize_Image_Control))
   AFAIK this function does not allow to use files from the media library.

 * Thanks for your quick answers guys, but changing the rights on directory does
   not change anything. I tried several browsers as well, the behavior is still 
   the same…

 * Well that’s a pity. Thanks for reporting back.
 * Could you send me a copy of the logo file you tried to upload? (bass@w3masters.
   nl) so i could test it.
 * Which version of WordPress do you use? And do you use JBST with a child theme?
   I will try to setup a test. Thanks.

 * If possible could you also try to set
 * > define(‘WP_DEBUG’, true);
 *  in wp-config.php and / or install [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/debug-bar/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/debug-bar/)
   to see if there are any errors when uploading, thanks!

 * Thank you.
    I use WP 3.8 and JBST directly without child theme. define(‘WP_DEBUG’,
   true); is set and debug bar installed (but debug bar disappears when customizing
   theme apparently – so no error show up) i ‘ve just sent you my image by mail,
   thank you for testing

 * i mailed you back 🙂
 * I didn’t release the customizer use ajax to update (so the debug plugin don’t
   give you a message).
 * You can debug it with firebug, i don’t have any idea if your familiar which such
   stuff?
    you can find the response of the logo upload in the response of /wp-admin/
   async-upload.php
