Gallery won't open & can't upload images

    Hiya,

    I just upgraded to the new WordPress and now, when I try to upload an image to a page, it keeps coming back with an error message and I must ‘try again later’.

    I’m in a huge rush to get this done today, so rather put out.

    When I go to the gallery (in another tab), the image is there. However, when I open the image gallery within the page I want to post from (I.e. insert from gallery instead of just upload) it’s completely blank. It also won’t pick up the image from the URL.

    Does anyone know how I can fix this, or if this is just a WP error today?

    Please note, the blog is: http://sayssez.com/

    WP won’t let me log into WP.org to get support there. It only allows me to use my free blog – http://www.upamammothsnostril.wordpress.com.

    Are you uploading the correct file types, .jpg, .png, or .gif?

    Hi justjennifer, as aforementioned, unfortunately, it won’t let me log on with my normal account, only my free blog, hence me writing here.

    Thanks for responding, mikedariano, I’ve tried uploading both .jpg and .png, to no avail :( Wondering if it’s an all round problem. Certainly seems like an actual error on the WP side, not so much something that I’m doing wrong, as it’s always worked before.

    @sezmeredith – And because you are using the standalone software, we cannot help you in these forums. You are using different software than we are here. Please read the link I gave above for clarity.

    You will need to resolve your log-in problem on WordPress.org. Best wishes.
