Have you guys experienced any issues with Wordpress 3.0, and either the Blogs-MU Template or any of your plugins causing the WP Media Uploader not to work? It pops up half hidden below the fold & once you upload any images and save.. the screen goes blank and the images doesn't get uploaded.

I deactivated NextGEN with the intentions of testing some others as I couldn't figure out what was going on.
Saying that I only upgraded all the plugins I had to WP3 ones today and haven't tested yet to see if NextGEN still doing the same thing. For some reason I never thought about the other plugins possibly affecting it last night when I tested and posted on forums.
Tested and still not working, I get this error (only copied last bit):
/public_html/wp-content/themes/bp-corporate/global-adminbar.php" is writeable by group, referer: http://mywebsitename.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=nggallery-add-gallery
That seems like a permission thing to me but I am a "noobie" when it comes to things like that. Not even sure what I need to do to fix it.
Interesting, to be honest I tend to steer clear of NextGen as it's such a huge and complex thing (unlimited error potential :) but that looks like it might be some sort of compatibility issue between it and our BP corporate theme...
My first recommendation would be not to use NextGen (see if you can get it on later, if you really need it) - is that an option?
Richard might be able to assist with the error too.
Yes it is definitely an option not to use it. It just seemed the popular choice so I downloaded to test.
I will look at other options. However, if there are no other options that are suitable, it may be worthwhile to get some assistance on that error. Especially if others experience the same problem.
@anyone with error: Just a thought .. have any of you got firebug and if so have any of you seen when this occurs any javascript errors? Just thinking that something could be blocking things. This is a very very long shot though that error doesn't directly relate to what could be something like that but your error logs + firebug = insight usually.
I do however second the nextgen avoid. To me it's like the last jenga brick that often makes the tower fall over of a site - seen far too many fall over because of it. If anything get everything stable then put it on is always my advice.
The Flash gallery in the free plugins didn't seem to break things. I had the same problem with Nextgen, and deleting it and deleting the data tables does not fix it.
Hi guys,
I have been using nextgen gallery on our network.
Just wanted to throw this out here.
I think there is a flash upload bug in at least version 1.7.2
I reverted the just this single file
nextgen/admin/upload.php
To version 1.6.2 and uploading working very good again.
It was a real nightmare to find.
Also added
tables for multi-db
//next gen gal
add_global_table('ngg_album');
add_global_table('ngg_gallery');
add_global_table('ngg_pictures');
I don't have it activated by default but I allow our free users to use it.
I tried down grading the Flash player a couple times but that did not resolve the issue.
the Media Uploader for wordpress also swf seems a little bit flakier lately.
Hi Mike,
I know your post was awhile ago.. But, to answer your question. Yes that resolve the error I was having.
I found it by reviewing the previous versions of the upload.php file. It was a headache.

Nope, no issues for us and the theme definitely shouldn't interfere with it.
Were things working ok for you prior to upgrade?

What plugins do you have installed? Really the only way to tell is deactivate them one by one.

It's always a plus to check the webserver's error logs when having a problem.

I installed nextgen gallery to test last night and had the same issue. (WP3 and BuddyPress 1.2.4.1)
I put this on WordPress support forums, but have had no comments yet: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/413597?replies=1

Will test and let you know if it is still broken.

Is this problem not related to the EasyBlogging Tooltips issue?
Member — 23rd June 2010 (1 year ago) #
I don't have that plugin installed.

James or Tammie any recommendations on a decent Gallery to use then?

Just to clarify since you bring that up, what version of Adobe flash are you using? I recall 10.x having issues with the built in uploader.

Can you check what version of Adobe Flash you're using? You're probably up to date but just want to make sure.
Member — 19th January 2011 (1 year ago) #
I am on 10.1.102.64

Check this
http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-nextgen-gallery-uploadphp-172-error-500-162-works-aok?replies=4
add the following at the top of upload.php for nextgen gallery
define('WP_ADMIN', true);
Try that.
Keeper of the Dark Chocolate — 30th January 2011 (1 year ago) #
Did that work for you? I was trying to figure out if you were actually getting the error or if you were just following up?
Seems strange that the wp-admin variable isn;t getting passed though.
