# HTTP problems

 * We have a problem uploading images since this new version was installed. We are
   using Pencidesign Soledad theme.
    Keep getting an HTTP message. Have tried deactivating
   Jetpack – no difference. Emailed Pencidesign – they think it’s a HostGator problem
   but we have another site on HostGator that works fine. Any suggestions please–
   our website has ground to a halt – not good. Does anyone else have this same 
   problem? Thanks

 * It simply says:
    HTTP error. We are thinking it must be Pencidesign’s problem.
   We’ve just tested all our other sites using different themes and they are fine.

 * Try adding one of these codes in .htaccess:
 * <IfModule mod_security.c>
    SecFilterEngine Off SecFilterScanPOST Off </IfModule
   >
 * or
 * # Exclude the file upload and WP CRON scripts from authentication
    <FilesMatch“(
   async-upload\.php|wp-cron\.php|xmlrpc\.php)$”> Satisfy Any Order allow,deny Allow
   from all Deny from none </FilesMatch>
 * or
 * AddType x-mapp-php5 .php (at the very top of your .htaccess file)
 * NOTE: I always warn people when playing in .htaccess. The codes can differ from
   server to server, so it’s best to contact your hosting support and ask them if
   it’s alright to add one of the codes, or ask them to do it for you.
