@hamilton33:

Navigate to www.your-domain.com/your-wp-dir/wp-admin/options.php by typing the URL in the adress bar of your browser. (Set your-domain.com/your-wp-dir to your custom installation path). You will see a very long page with many options sttings. Scroll down to find the option uploads_use_yearmonth_folders and change the value in the text field next to it from 1 to 0. WordPress will no longer store your files in year/month folders then.
(Maybe there’s a different options page depending on your theme.)

Short introduction to options.php page: hidden-secret-options-panel

Hope this helps.

Still having the same problem with WP 3.9.2.
Solution:

• go to www.your-domain.com/your-wp-dir/wp-admin/options.php
• find option uploads_use_yearmonth_folders
• set value to 0

Hope this helps
