    WordPress won’t upload

    Filed under: Computer — martin @ 11:28 am

    Something that’s been bugging me for a while is that when I updated my Wordpress install (using svn), file uploads ceased to work. Attempting to upload a file resulted in the message “An error occurred in the upload. Please try again later.”.

    It seems that the latest Wordpress uses Flash to show a progress bar during the upload. This site details many possible solutions, but the easiest one that’s guaranteed to work is downloading the No-Flash-Uploader plugin. Simply drop it in your wp-content/plugins folder, then activate it in the Dashboard, and your uploads are fixed.
