  • I checked your site and noticed that your thumbnails are supposed to be in the folder <img src=”/home/deetheb1/public_html/markwilhelm.ca/wp-content/uploads/et_temp/iaao-website-939447_184x184.png”

    I would first check to see if the folder still exists then, I would check your database… I noticed in the past when I used the built-in “Use as Featured Image” instead of using a custom field “Thumbnail” for example, during upgrades, the thumbnails are no longer associated with the post in the database…

    The other thing you might want to check is to see if the above folder has 777 privileges… if not, try setting the folder to 777 and see if they reappear…

    Check your TimThumb Script as well…

    I had only one and finally simply dropped the plugin since, it appears it is no longer supprted as you’ll notice this request for help is over 4 months old…

    I added two lines of code to resolve the issue… I declared #img_url and placed the string accordingly

    Would there be anyway to have the snapshots “refresh” themselves say, every 12 hours or so?

    I am using connections however, when you click on the author id at the end of the article is sends you to /author/authorname and I would like to change the look of that page to use with my existing template… and what is wrong with the forums today? It looks like a wordpress install gone bad on my end… no css… everything looks like I am looking at an iphone app

    if you can still ftp to it, then change the folder/directory privileges back to 755…

    yeah that seems not to cover the post urls though…

    I thought I had read somewhere that a simple where statement could cover the entire site

    No replies simply because this problem has existed since day one… it is a coding issue….

    For one reason or another, you must set write permissions on the wp-content folder along with the uploads folder (something never done before)

    Next, you must then go and change permissions on your themes and plugins folders so the world as wp would know it, cannot write to those folders…

    Regarding the theme folder, make certain that if your theme is using a cache (timthumbnailing) that you make that folder within the specific theme folder 777

    That should do it… you may find that, you will need to go in and play around with the settings to IE 9.0 (or IE all together) to get the “Drag and Drop” feature to work as, it is not recognized as a trust script (java of some flavor) causing the “Drag and Drop” not to appear at all unless using something less secure e.g. Firefox or Chrome which are a lot “looser” with their scripting actions/permissions….

    After all of that, I simply switched back to 3.2.1 for, simply upgrading to have a special “drag and Drop” feature for images/uploads to me was simply not worth risking the security changes…

    I guess to wrap it up, as with any WP release, wait until the next series of updates comes out and wait to see which was is the one to use…

    Good Luck, Happy Holidays

    @rtk – are you running Windows Server 2008 R2, or just the Web Server version of 2008?

    I operate a Windows 2008 R2 dedicated and I utilize remote desktop not, C-Panel…

    My issue is, 3.2.1 rund just fine with the recommended security settings and as you, am very hesitant to stray for the sake of making a newer version of WP operational at this time..

    Yes, the point being is, changing permissions on just uploads will not work… permissions to wp-content need to be modified as well… this has never been the case in past versions of WordPress

    Try restarting your php… it is dependent on what type of server you are using as to the exact methods however, if everything is failing as described, a php restart should resolve 90 percent of your problems… now for the other 10 percent, join the club there are many trying to get this figured out at this time…

    The whole issue needs to bee closely looked at as, you are not the only one having these issues…. if you are a trusting soul, you can give write permissions to your wp-content folder/directory the same as the uploads folder…

    It would be a good idea for you to remove write privileges on your theme and plugins folders as, you don’t want anyone messing with either of those two (theme or plugins that is)…

    Have you attempted to upload using IE 9 yet? If so, please let me know if you are actually seeing the “Drag and Drop” feature as, I am not seeing that using IE 9, 8, or 7. I only see the drop and drag while using Chrome… this is definitely a java/php issue to which, many have not narrowed it down yet…

    Good luck!
