The WordPress flash media uploader doesn’t work. How can I fix it?

27 February 2010 ~ 0 Comments

Depending on your webhost’s server settings, the flash uploader may not work, which can be a real bummer especially if you upload a lot of media.  For those who are unaware, the flash uploader allows you to upload more than 1 piece of media at a time.  This is especially useful if you add many photos to your posts.

In this video, I show you how to force the flash media uploader to work.  Thanks to KimWoodbridge.com for the useful .htaccess code. This code will remove the “HTTP Error” message that you might have already received.

#BEGIN Image Upload HTTP Error Fix
<IfModule mod_security.c>
<Files async-upload.php>
SecFilterEngine Off
SecFilterScanPOST Off
</Files>
</IfModule>
#END Image Upload HTTP Error Fix
