  I’ve spent the last 2 hours trying to upload an image from my computer to my post. Ive read multiple articles and replies in the help section but still can’t resolve the problem. I have previously been able to upload photos as described by your ‘how to’ section but today I kept getting the following

  550B627A-F3F7-422B-AC45-B9B817BE10F0_1_201_a.heic: Sorry, this file type is not permitted for security reasons.

  please help. Advise me as to how to upload images to my blog from my computer Thank you

  Hi,

  WordPress.com is not currently compatible with the .heic image file type. You’ll need to convert to JPG or another image format.

  I will pass on your feedback to the team as I myself would like to see heic files accepted.
