I second that. I’m getting the same error message.
ditto I am getting similar error
Unable to create directory ……./wp-content/uploads/2009/03. Is its parent directory writable by the server? and its is
Yes, you will get this error if you activate the plugin but haven’t altered permissions on the upload folder.
In wp-admin under Settings -> Miscellaneous -> Store uploads in this folder, there is a path. You need to make this folder writeable by chmod, so that the system can save images to it.
Worked great after doing that… hope that helps.
I’m using CHMOD 777 on the entire wp-content directory and all subdirectories and files… Still nothing…
Using PHP5 and mySQL 4 on a media temple server…
HELP!!
Same problem here.
Upload error: The userphoto upload content directory does not exist and could not be created. Please ensure that you have write permissions for the ‘/userphoto’ directory. Did you put slash at the beginning of the upload path in Misc. settings? It should be a path relative to the WordPress root directory. wp_upload_dir() returned:
– Uploads dir is CHMOD 777;
– Manually created the “userphoto” folder and chmoded it 777;
nothing works 🙁
HELP.
Thanks 🙂
Same problem – same answers… chmod 777 /wp-content/uploads/
help!
try removing the hash in the front of the path in the misc.
wp-content/uploads
that actually worked for me.. I can’t splain it lucy!
