Fails to create gallery on WP3.5.1, wants to use non-existent blogs.dir

  • I have a new install (not upgrade) of WP 3.5.1 multisite (domains).

    Both on existing sites (import from WP 3.4) and new sites (new to WP 3.5), when trying to create a gallery I get this;

    Directory wp-content/blogs.dir/{blog_id}/files/ didn’t exist. Please create first the main gallery folder !

    WP 3.5 doesn’t use blogs.dir, it uses uploads directory instead?

    No matter, I can create blogs.dir, Nextgen then “works”, but none of the images are available in the WP media.

    What to do?

  • +1 for this request for multisite users of this v popular plugin.

    Worth noting that you’ll need to a bit of dynamic querying here – WP upgrades from older versions to 3.5 will carry on using the older blogs.dir directory structure – only fresh installs will need to use the newer uploads directory structure.
