can’t upload images
-
hi all, i just made a switch from the free WordPress.com to WordPress on my shared hosting. i am having trouble setting it up.
i started out trying to just load everything to my /public_html directory, but that didn’t work, so i made a new folder “user” and put all of the WP files into that. i started working, then decided to try put everything back right into /public_html because my new Website url bore the “/user” on the end, which would be unsuitable in the long term. anyway, the blog was now functional, except that now when in try ot upload images i get this error message:
Unable to create directory /home/hidrofit/public_html/user/wp-content/uploads/2009/04. Is its parent directory writable by the server?
my WordPress thinks that the “user” directory is still there. can anybody suggest how i can fix this? i wish that i had taken better notes of the modifications that i was applying.
i can think of one fix that i could apply, but i would worry about overwriting a whole folder full of pictures later on.
thanks and regards,
hydrophyte
