  Unable to upload anything to my blog. I’ve been trying to upload posts and it does not work.
  It worked fine until last week, it says “publishing” but doesn’t get anywhere. I’ve been letting it load for about 20min without success.

  Have you scanned this board to review any of the other posts on this topic?

  How are you trying to post? Which form/page are you using?

  I got same issue before with two reasons.
  1. Did not have ‘Read and Write’ permission for ‘upload’ folder.
  Solution: Provide ‘Read and Write’ permission for ‘upload’ folder by FTP.
  2. .htaccess file blocked image uploads.
  Solution: Remove .htaccess file from root folder.

  Have you tried from the Dashboard? Have you read the other threads on this topic?

  Flex, you’re not even close. You’re talking about self-hosted sites. This board is about free hosted sites — no access to that file.

  I searched for a similar problem, haven’t looked really much though.
  And yes I tried from the Dashboard and then it says “invalid request” while clicking publish.
