Vous rencontrez des problèmes de téléversement d’images sur votre site WordPress ?
Pour la plupart des débutants, les erreurs de téléversement d’images peuvent être assez déroutantes car elles peuvent apparaître sans que vous ne fassiez quoi que ce soit de différent. En fait, l’échec du téléversement des images est l’un des problèmes les plus courants dans WordPress. Heureusement, il est assez facile à corriger, et vous pouvez le faire vous-même.
Dans cet article, nous allons vous afficher comment corriger l’outil de téléversement d’images dans WordPress.

Quelle est la cause du problème de téléchargement d’images dans WordPress ?
Le problème de téléversement d’images dans WordPress est généralement dû à des droits de fichiers incorrects. Vos fichiers WordPress sont stockés sur votre serveur web hébergeur et ont besoin de droits spécifiques sur les fichiers et les répertoires pour fonctionner.
De mauvais droits sur les fichiers empêchent WordPress de lire ou de téléverser des fichiers sur le serveur hébergeur. Vous pouvez obtenir l’erreur WordPress suivante lors du téléversement d’un fichier image :
‘Impossible de créer le répertoire wp-content/uploads/2019/04. Son répertoire parent est-il accessible en écriture par le serveur?’
Il se peut aussi que l’erreur s’affiche :
‘L’outil téléversé n’a pas pu être déplacé vers wp-content/uploads/’.
Un autre signe de ce problème est la disparition de vos images de la médiathèque de WordPress.
Mon site fonctionnait bien avant. Qui a modifié les droits d’accès aux fichiers ?
Cela peut se produire pour un certain nombre de raisons. Une mauvaise configuration de votre serveur d’hébergement mutualisé peut parfois modifier ces droits sans que vous ne fassiez quoi que ce soit.
Par exemple, votre fournisseur d’hébergement a effectué une mise à jour qui a modifié de manière inattendue les droits des fichiers.
Si tout le reste fonctionne correctement sur votre site WordPress, vous pouvez simplement appliquer les droits de fichier corrects pour corriger le problème de téléversement d’images.
Ceci étant dit, voyons comment définir des droits de fichiers corrects pour corriger les problèmes de téléversement d’images sur votre site WordPress.
Résolution du problème de téléchargement d’images sur WordPress
Afin de commander la modification des droits des fichiers, vous devez utiliser un client FTP.
Tout d’abord, connectez-vous à votre site via FTP, puis accédez au dossier /wp-content/. Vous y trouverez le dossier Outil de téléversement des médias, dans lequel WordPress stocke tous vos outils téléversés, y compris les images.
Cliquez avec le bouton droit de la souris sur le répertoire Téléversés et sélectionnez « Droits sur les fichiers ».
La boîte de dialogue des droits d’accès aux fichiers s’affiche.
Tout d’abord, vous devez définir les droits d’accès au répertoire Téléversés et à tous les sous-répertoires qu’il contient sur « 744 ».
Pour ce faire, saisissez 744 dans la case de valeur numérique, puis cochez la case située à côté de « Rechercher dans les sous-répertoires ». Cliquez ensuite sur le bouton radio « Appliquer uniquement aux répertoires« .
Cliquez sur le bouton « OK » pour appliquer ces modifications. Votre client FTP va maintenant commencer à appliquer les droits d’accès aux répertoires.
Note : Si le fait de définir les droits sur les répertoires à 744 ne semble pas résoudre votre problème, essayez alors 755.
À l’étape suivante, vous devrez définir les droits d’accès à tous les fichiers du répertoire Téléversés.
Pour ce faire, cliquez avec le bouton droit de la souris sur le répertoire Téléversés et sélectionnez Droits des fichiers. Dans la boîte de dialogue des droits d’accès aux fichiers, modifiez la valeur numérique en « 644 ».
Cochez la case située à côté de « Récurrence dans les sous-répertoires ». Ensuite, vous devez cliquer sur le bouton radio « Appliquer uniquement aux fichiers ».
Enfin, il suffit de cliquer sur le bouton « OK » pour appliquer ces modifications.
Le client FTP va maintenant modifier les droits de tous les fichiers contenus dans le dossier Téléversement. Une fois que c’est fait, vous pouvez retourner dans la zone d’administration de WordPress et réessayer de téléverser des images.
Si votre site comporte des formulaires de téléversement de fichiers, vous devez également les tester.
Note: Si vous ne savez pas comment utiliser un client FTP, vous pouvez également utiliser le gestionnaire de fichiers fourni par votre entreprise d’hébergement WordPress. Comme les captures d’écran varient d’un hébergeur à l’autre, vous devrez vous adresser à leur support pour trouver des instructions.

Let’s add the fact that WordPress creates a new folder each month, in wp-content/uploads.
Probably, when the new folder is automaticaly created, it hasn’t the correct permissions :
We have to modify the permissions each month.
WPBeginner Support says
That should not normally be the case, we would recommend checking with your hosting provider to ensure they don’t have a security setting that could be the root of that issue.

Images to my wordpress site seem to upload correctly but then then disappear and an icon for broken image link appears. In the media library the image shows as a gray block. If I try to edit the image then I can see the image but when I save it again it’s gray again. I checked my permissions and the are set to 755.

You may want to try updating to 744 and if that does not work, reach out to your hosting provider and they can normally assist.

FTP permissions are fine, when I try to upload, the original file goes to the FTP Uploads folder, but WordPress does not recognize it and displays error on upload, try again later
Any tips?

I’m not sure this will solve my problem. I have an educational website and we give away free books and educational materials. Recently I uploaded a PDF document (a chart) into my library, put it in 2 of my web pages, and created the link to open it. That was fine, but later, I decided to improve the document, took it off, recreated it and uploaded it again to the library. The original document was deleted completely from my own files, but when I upload it to my website it comes up with the OLD document. Somehow the « delete permanently » feature within the library is NOT actually deleting it. HELP!

New image uploaded always has 640 permission. And if I access image with 640 permission, it will return 404. But if I change it to 644, I can access the image.
Is 640 the correct permission for image uploaded? Or is it 644?
WPBeginner Support says
644 are the correct permissions

I’m having a problem sizing my photos for a wordpress site and getting them to display correctly. I’ve resized the images several times to smaller, but they still appear showing only portion of the image and not the full image – even though I have also tried resizing in the edit section of the gallery! How do I get them to load in the full size if the image is a suitable size and resolution!

When adding the image to a post/page you may want to check for the dropdown in the bottom right stating the size and set it to the full size for your image.

I’m having an issue when in editing mode upon uploading product images in gallery. I uploaded some images for a product gallery with no issues then I went to upload new ones for another product. I select the images/upload into gallery but instead of uploading the new ones I selected it uploads the ones from the previous upload.. Ctrl+F5, delete cookies, system restart… nothing. Still the same issue.
Any ideas?

It sounds like you would want to reach out to the support for the plugin you are using for your products to ensure that it is not a hiccup with the plugin itself.

Hi everyone,
I am scratching my head on this current issue with WordPress 5.0 logo uploading. The image file (59K) will upload to media no problem, but it WILL NOT show on the page, instead it would show my icon file instead. I don’t understand. I’ve tried resizing the size to 100px to no prevail.
Could this be the theme fault? I am using OceanWP. I tried contacting my host and they recommend getting my logo designer to optimise it for WP5.0. Which doesn’t make sense. if anyone could please give me any leads to this issue. Thank you!

Hi all,
Thanks for all your information and suggestions.
I tried everything:
– the 755,744,744 and 655 in filezilla. Nothing worked.
– Media, upload etc. Also nothing.
All of a sudden I could upload two images. And afterwards I tried the upload a 3rd image and now I am stuck with the same problem again. Every time I try to upload any image i get ‘ http-error’.
Does anybody have some last advice?

I tried this initially with 744. This stopped any images appearing at all for me on either wp-admin or my live website. Which was worrying and panic inducing!
So then tried 755, and images are appearing again on my live website. Which is a relief.
Still having exactly the same issue with uploading images though. Getting ‘http error’.

Same problem here. for images over a certain size. They do appear in the media library but with no thumbnail and can’t be edited. Small images do work however.

Hi,
I did my way, solved very well
Go to your hosting cPanel, go to PHP Version in the Software block..
Go to PHP Options in the right button
Edit to be like this :
:
memory_limit 1024M
post_max_size 128M
upload_max_filesize 64M
Then back to cPanel frontpage
Go to ModSecurity in the Security section
Change to Disable for your domain.
VOILAA !!!!

Let me know your success story

Thanks a bunch dude, nothing else worked, but this PHP options setting worked for me.

If the issue is cropping up after transferring a site to a new domain this works for me:
open the Settings menu, and select Media. If you see a file path with a textbox displaying where the files should be uploaded to, delete the text in the file path textbox, and click Save Changes once you’re done.
No try uploading an image, should work fine.
Katie says
Thanks – that solved my problem. The server path had somehow been defined in Settings > Media. Removed it and replaced with the default wp-content/uploads, saved and that fixed it
Gord says
Hi Tom,
I just wanted to say thank you as well. Your post saved me a lot of grief! I used a plugin to migrate a site to a new provider. The tool is excellent, but in this instance were so many files in my uploads directory that I needed to exclude images and move them separately via ftp. I spent an hour carefully checking file permissions and ownership in the WordPress uploads directory until I came across your post. Sure enough, nder « Settings / Media » there was a hardcoded path valid only with my old hosting provider. Great post!
Vu says
Thank you very much. My problem was same and your solution was great
ceesay says
Thank you, thank you, thank you!! This happened when I migrated this site. Hasn’t happened to any of the other sites I’ve migrated, but the Settings>Media path was exactly the problem.

I must have read two dozen different fixes fir this image error thing, then found a solution that s far, far easier than anything else I have read. In fact here’s the solution in three words: Change your browser.
Yep, that’s all I did. I’ve tried lots of different « solutions » with no joy, then just by chance I was working on a different computer one day, using Opera instead of Chrome (I’ve had the error with IE, Edge, Firefox etc. too) and I had no problem uploading my images. I’ve been using Opera for the purpose for months now and never had the HTTP error since.
I’m not saying it will work for every occurrence but it’s got to be worth a try!

Me too! I even thought I fixed the problem by increasing the upload size through the Media section under Settings and nope! You know what got it to work?
Resizing my freaking images. Silly me thought I was doing that through the settings on WordPress, but nope!
I have a Mac and I resized my large images to 1920×1080 or less and made sure my Media Settings allowed that and sure enough, it works! All those hours of frustration… *sigh* I hope that helps!

I have no problem with inserting photos by doing so inside a paragraph and wraping text around it. But I cannot insert a larger photo in an area free of a paragraph. The size of the photo doesn’t change even though the file is larger. I changed the settings (media/settings) but nothing works. Can you help?
WPBeginner Support says
Hi Joe,
Here is a simple tip that you can try if you haven’t already tried it. Press the enter key twice after adding a paragraph. Click on the upload media button to upload your photo. In the right column, select Full Size and then click on the insert image button. As soon as photo appears in your visual editor, press the enter key twice and start typing.
Alice says
It still doesn’t solve my problem. I recently moved my newly created website from a subdomain to my main domain and everything worked fine except for my uploads. I went to my optons.php and tried to change my upload path. I noticed that when I tried to upload a file, the file is not even in my folder, doesn’t show up in my media library as a thumbnail. However, when I clicked on the broken image and clicked « edit image, » the image actually showed up!!! How weird! How can I fix my problem?
Melina says
Hi Alice, I have exactly the same problem! I tried all the solutions that are given down but because my problem is with my multisite duplicates and not with the root site, none of them works. I can uploads the pictures, the sub-site recognizes they are there but shows just grey thumbnails. When I go to my ftp all access are correct and I have already tried changing the upload path. Nothing works! Could you solve your problem? What was the solution??
Lakshya Mohan says
Similar problem is occurring with me. I have tried everything but still no use. When I upload an image, I see a blank thumbnail clicking on which I see a blank preview, but if I click on edit then only I am able to see the image. When I put that image in any post I see a broken link.
