Thank you Jeff! Got my php.ini updated and the plugin works great!

I haven’t tried the xmlrpc myself either … I did the hack myself.

And I hope that we get an official fix too … and for WP.com as well.

Kahil … I completely agree. The best of both would be perfect. The new organizer is nice … if we can get the two combined … aswesome, freakin’ awesome.

Yes … I just found a simple work around from our competitor Ecto (kudos to them).

I just tested it and it seems to work.

This fix requires two edits in the wp-includes/functions-post.php file. The other option running around (I haven’t tried yet) is using xmlrpc.php file from an earlier beta of WP 2.

Word from Ecto is that WP will be reverting to the old behaviour for uploads … WP folks … could you e-mail me with a confirmation? Thx.

I had a similar post in another thread …

Regardless of the tone of BudWiser’s comments, he’s pretty much on the mark. In fact, it seems like I was able to post images remotely (in my case with Qumana, who I work for) on my wp.com blogs …

So this is something I’d like to see addressed. While experienced users might be able to tweak their settings or use a different plugin, a lot of users, especially wp.com users, won’t be able to.

From my basic experiments using Qumana … it looks like you just get a 500 server non-response error. Like the remote client is asking, “Hey where should I put this?” and the server isn’t responding to it.

Some kind of update appears to be required at the wp level, something that would handle it.

We’re having the same issue with Qumana. I’ve been trying to figure out why users haven’t been able to upload images via Qumana. With my own tests is seems that there is a gap in the xml-rpc or something. When I try to upload via Qumana (using xml-rpc) I get the non-informative 500 error.

We’d like to get Qumana working again …
