 * Hello
 * I am getting HTTP error when uploading images to WP.
 * This does not happen to all uploads. It is rather random.
 * Just by chance I disabled Wordfence and tried to upload the same images and it
   worked.
 * So, it seems that Wordfence is, selectively, somehow generating the error and
   keeping the image from being uploaded.
 * pls. advise.
 * Thanks
 * Bernard

 * GO TO DASHBOARD
 * SETTINGS > MEDIA
 * CHANGE THE LARGE SIZE ( THIS SIZE SHOULD BIGGER THAN IMAGE YOUR UPLOADING)

 * Hi soeezauto,
    Please update to the latest Wordfence version 6.2.3, one of the
   firewall rules has been modified in that version and I believe it’s related to
   this issue.
 * Thanks.
