Just a heads-up… everything started working for me this morning on hostgator. They must have gotten enough complaints that they rolled something back on their servers. ANyone else able to upload their respective files this morning?
@kcurreri I’m glad I’m not the only one able to replicate this issue. I don’t doubt it affects just video files… I would imagine it would affect even large image files.
My gut on this issue is that this isn’t a problem with the latest wordpress update (the changelog didn’t indicate any new fixes to anything file or upload related) but I do think that hostgator network people have changed something on their end that they are not telling their support staff about. This has been working fine for me now for almost a year and sure enough… 3 days ago it stopped working (on my mac).
Funny thing is that everything works fine in windows 7 in all browsers. Its a really strange thing that different OS’s would react differently… even with the same browser.
I should point out that uploading 9-10mb files has been working FINE for almost a year… it seems wordpress 3.3.1 broke this ability (or hostgator isn’t being fully transparent with me about what they have changed).
Forum: Requests and Feedback
In reply to: What Should 2011 Hold for WordPress?I wanted to offer a few suggestions:
Better support for posting html5 video?
Also, I think the image upload process could use some work. Why can’t I re-order in the “upload” area… why can I only do it in the “library”? Why does my image window stay open when I click “save”? Just some UI inconsistencies/confusion.
Finally, I’d love to use the image gallery much more often… but It just doesn’t work for me if I already use the “featured image”… because I don’t want EVERY image in the gallery, just specific images. This feature could also be improved to allow selective gallery posts.
thanks for the hard work!
Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [Sidebar Login] [Plugin: Sidebar Login] Sidebar and SSLI have come across this same problem. I believe you are right; if the page you submit the form from is not SSL protected… then that info is sent in the clear. You would have to make your whole website SSL in order for the sidebar login to work this way. This might be as easy as making your WordPress address (URL) be https://yoursite.com/ in the wordpress general settings area.
let me know if that works.
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Mass User Creation in WordPress 3.0I also noticed that wordpress “salts” passwords after the first login… but still lets you use a standard MD5 hash the first time… which is a huge benefit for automatically creating users.
I would imagine Otto’s script could be made to add the same “salting” hash by plugging into the wp_salt() function?
Thoughts?
