    Hey all!!
    Im having 2 problems with my wordpress blog.

    I followed the Installation step by step guide and use filezilla to move the files over to my server.

    I can log into the blog fine and make general blog posts, at the start.

    The first problem Im having is to do with adding new categories and adding users from the dashboard.

    Every time I try to do this, an error comes up like this.

    A straight up answer, understandable to a basic user like me would be great!! ??

    The second problem occurs when I try to upload a file to the post Im making, for example a photo.

    This error occurs.

    I understand there is some kind of setting not right, but I dont know how to go about correcting it.

    Surely if I followed the installation step by step on this wordpress website I shouldnt be having these problems.

    I downloaded WordPress and Installed it today
    So I cant see any reason for the software to be out of date or anything along those lines.

  • Your first error appears related to mod_security or file permissions. You might search here for “permission admin-ajax.php” and see what pops up.

    Regarding the second: you see where that image error asks you, “Is the parent directory writable?”. That’s a valid question! It is also a great thing to type into the search field on every page here and find thousands of similar questions — many with answers! ??

    You’re going to change directory permissions. Some reading to get you started: Changing_File_Permissions
