# Posts > new post missing option

 * Hi, I recently migrated my site to a new host and since then I’ve found that 
   for new posts and new pages I’m now directed to the page where all posts/pages
   are edited, rather than what I chose, which was to create either a new post or
   page.
 * Second issue : I get an http error when trying to load any media. The image attempts
   to load and then I get an http error.
 * My site is balletnews.co.uk if that helps diagnose the problems. It’s in maintenance
   mode right now so you won’t see anything.
 * I had hoped to spend the weekend installing and customising a new theme but these
   issues have cropped up since the move and my host company are brilliant but baffled
   so I thought I’d reach out to the WordPress community and seek help so I can 
   move on!

 * For the HTTP error, I get that often after I install WordPress sites on my host.
 * Try this: go into your .htaccess file within the root level of your WordPress
   installation. This file is a “hidden file” so you might have to change a setting
   in your FTP program to see it. Once you can, go into it and add the following
   line of code…
 *     ```
       SetEnv MAGICK_THREAD_LIMIT 1
       ```
   
 * …before this code:
 *     ```
       # BEGIN WordPress
       <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
       RewriteEngine On
       RewriteBase /
       RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
       RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
       </IfModule>
       # END WordPress
       ```
   
 * That takes care of the HTTP issue for me.

 * Are you not seeing the “New+” menu in the black admin bar, while logged in?
