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.

Had the same issue on my site and it took me couple of hours to figure out the problem.
In my case the issue was generated by Wordfence plugin after i cheked in Option section at the bottom the line « Disable Code Execution for Uploads directory »
I was in the point of making back-up of database and to start again reinstaling everything from the scrach.
After uncheking that selection from above in Option tab, everything come to normal.
Rob says
I tried your suggestions, I changed 755 to 744 and 644 fore the files. Did not work for me. Changed it back but problem http eror when uploading image file keeps appearing.
any other suggestion!!!!
Brad F. says
I was getting an HTTP error when trying to upload images on WordPress. Whatever the most current version is right now. I went through disabling any plug-in that I thought might have some impact on images. None of that seemed to help.
Today, I got on FileZilla and used the steps above. Switching to 744 broke images on my blog. If it wasn’t previously cached in my browser, it loaded as a broken image. So, I switched everything back to 755, which is what it was set to initially.
After that, I went into the upload folders that match the months of the posts I was trying to add images to. I found, in FileZilla, that even though my WordPress dashboard in Chrome was showing that the image had not properly uploaded, and showed up as a little dot in the Media Library, it was actually in the folder in FileZilla and had « crunched » into different sizes as usual. I had deleted these images in the WordPress dashboard, but that apparently didn’t carry through into the database. So, I deleted them through Filezilla.
When I attempted to re-upload the image through WordPress, it went in without a hitch. I’m not sure if this is unique to my situation, or if I’m forgetting anything, but I’m putting this here in case it’s helpful to anyone else having the same problem.

thank you very much.solved my headache.Thank you very much..

744 made my site not showing ANY picture :))) went back to 755 witch fixed it

Here’s some important information for anyone using GoDaddy – I followed the guide above which resulted in my website going down completely as it was unable to connect using the permissions above – I called up Godaddy to find out this default permissions to reset it and they were utterly useless.
After a good number of hours messing around I managed to fix it by changing all the folder permissions that I’d amended to 705.
Hope this helps anyone experiencing a similar issue!
jackhamm says
So…..I was having the broken image link issue and did what it suggested above, mine were set at 705 when I had the issue. I have godaddy as a host. I did the steps above and it didn’t work and 705 was what it was set at before I tried to fix it. Any other settings I can try =( ) am SOL with 705 and 755.

Or you can try to put all in 777 it’s not secure but… remember the meaning of the octal sequence read=4, write=2, execute(or x)=1, then rwx=4+2+1=7 and r-x=4+0+1=5 or rw-=4+2+0=6, and the position of the bit indicate the user level, so if you put all in 777 bring permissions for everybody do all what they want. In all cases I recommend to put in contact whit the support team of your hosting, maybe they have a protocol for strange behavior.

Hi, I tried changing Numeric value to 744 and now when I try to go to either my site or the /WP-admin dashboard I get a’ Server Error 500′ message. I’ve tried changing it back to 755, but no luck. I’m in a much worse position now! Any ideas on how to restore it back?

Hi,
I tried to move the wordpress site to another hosting using the wordpress export and import function (due to some reasons unable to use MySQL database migration). After the migration, I found no image shown on Media Library (but the webpages worked okay with the images shown properly). It makes problem for me to amend and change the images latter.
Would you please let me know where to get the images of the uploads area into Media Library.
Thanks

Having the same trouble as several above – tried the recommended 644 fix and it broke it further. Switching back to 755 did not fix it.
Weird issue, though… the time/date stamp from all of the broken images is Dec 31 1969!

Hi,
I am very desperate for help. Initially I only have the problem for http error when uploading new images after updating my wp to 4.4.1
So, after I followed your guide and changed the permission, now all my images from my website, inside my wordpress, post and thumbnail all not showing. How can I reset to my original permission settings. it’s like making it worse.
Please please help me.

It didnt worked for me!! Day before i tried all stuff and suddenly uploading starts but right now it seems like old !! Cant upload images says HTTP error!
Any other solutions!!
Jared says
I also have this error. My hosting claimed it was something with the theme I uploaded, but the theme host directed me here.
Any idea why the http error is showing?
Robbie Ferguson says
This didn’t work for me so I dug a bit deeper.
Turns out WordPress did not change the « upload folder » when I had previously renamed the site in Settings->General. When I change a domain name, my host moves the files automatically. Site a.com now becomes b.com, which moves the files to /home/user/b.com – so the site works fine, but once I try to upload, it fails.
So I checked Settings->Media and sure enough, « Store uploads in this folder » is still set to /home/user/a.com. I edited it, and it works.
So, double check « Store uploads in this folder » and ensure the path is correct in Settings->Media.
Still, thanks for the post–indeed it was smart to change from 755 to 744 anyways… quite a bit safer.
Ebrahim DUROSIMI says

Laurynas says
Hi,
I have tried this method and unfortunately it did not work for me. But I am more concerned that I have changed permissions numeric value to 755 for files also. I don’t remember what it was before. Does that affect anything? And how I could restore it? Thanks
WPBeginner Support says
You can undo this by selecting the directory in FTP client. Right click and then change file permissions to 644. Select the radio button that says apply to files only and click on the OK button. See the last image in the article.

When im in /wp-admin/customize/header the « add new image » button does nothing.
Im having this on multiple themes and have tried:
Browser
Cookies
All plugins
WP update
User permissions
File permissions
I wonder if its a problem within the code of the customize page and specifically the button not being linked? Please any advice I have been stuck with this for ages.

Nina says
Thanks for helping me fix a little bit of my problem, but my uploads keep showing broken pictures for any added pictures, while the older pictures stay fine even though they have the same permissions, and file paths, etc. Also, it displays perfectly fine on Chrome and my smartphone, however Mozilla wont display certain pictures! I’ve tried everything I could find.
I recently updated to php 5.5 which I suspect caused the issue. For those of you that are still having trouble, I’d suggest backing up everything and doing a fresh install.
I tested another site with a fresh install and had no problem. Ugh. The trials and tribulations of wordpress…
Nina says
I wanted to update that I solved my problem, in case this helps others. I have hotlinking protection enabled via my web host (hostgator). However, I had to
1) Add my own site domain to the list of enabled sites (meaning bypass hotlinking for the site itself)
2) I had to click ‘enable direct linking’ in order to enable others to see it besides myself when logged into wp-admin.
Once I did this, my pictures were able to load, view, edit, etc.! This may not be everyone’s problem, but if you have tried the file permissions fix, then this may be a good next step.
I had to use cpanel to fix this and go to the hotlink protection via hostgator. I don’t know how to fix it for other web hosts, but I imagine it’s similar. Good luck!
Monica says
I had to upload my whole Wp site with a backup and some images were not showing even after trying twice. I used your instructions and worked perfectly. My settings were 755, I tried 744 and then every image was broken. So I went back to 755 for all files and folders and that made it. So I guess original some files had different permissions. Thanks a lot
Najam says
For those who 755 or 777 didn’t work. Check out your Media settings page. If there is a path to where the files should be uploaded, try removing it to make it go to default. This worked for us and now we are able to upload without a problem.
Brenton says
Najam you absolute star! Finally the solution I needed!
susanmcneal says
Thank you! This worked for me!
ann wigmore says
Worked!!
Claire says
Hi, thanks for this – I deleted the whole path (as in, left it blank) and now when I return to Media Settings the box with the path isn’t there, just the size images. Any idea how I can get this back?

Hi Tanbeen,
Check your plugins. Try to disable any cache plugin you have. Clear the cached files, then try to upload the images. It should work fine.
If it still doesn’t work, contact me on facebook and I will check it out for you.

I’m facing http error while uploading image, how to fix that issue? I can’t upload any of the image , does that above tutorial world for that too?
Andrew says
Hi
Just thought I’d add on here that this issue isn’t always a permissions based issue but it can be due to file size. All images were uploading perfectly fine until my client tried to upload files of over 4000px in width and height.
While the upload was successful the admin doesn’t seem to be able to handle the file.

Valentin says
Hey guys,
How are you? First comment and all. I’d be chippier but I need to get DTB. Right now I’m having a problem uploading media to a site. It’s been replicated both on live and localhost.
The site runs on the Spanish 4.2.2 version of WordPress.
Here’s the rundown:
1) Any attempt to upload media (let’s say, a logo) to the site shows an instant 100% transfer completion message or hangs up.
2) Regardless of what it returns, the files in the media library appear without title, without author, without attachment reference and without date.
3) They are impossible to edit, view, or permanently delete (I don’t even get the option on this last one).
4) The files are in the corresponding yyyy/mm folder and can be deleted there but it doesn’t affect the Media library interface.
Here’s two screencaps to help illustrate:
What I’ve tried:
1) Theme(Salient) & plugin on/off
2) WordPress 4.2.2 Dashboard reinstall
4) .htaccess modsec hack
3) Rain dance
Any help would be most appreciated. Hell, I’d be more than willing to buy someone a beer over this.
Disclaimer: this may or may not be an almost carbon copy from my post at WordPress Support. Yes, I am shameless. I regret nothing!
WPBeginner Support says
We see that you have already tried rain dance, not sure we can be much help after that
but we will try. Have you tried increasing WordPress PHP memory limit. If that doesn’t work then connect to your website using an FTP client and go to wp-content/uploads/ folder to verify that WordPress is able to regenerate image sizes. For any image you upload to WordPress there should be at least three or more copies of the same image in different sizes. If there are no image sizes just the original upload, then most probably your WordPress file permissions are not set properly.

I’m on a Mac using Fetch FTP to access my wordpress files. When I right-click on the uploads folder, I only have an option that says « UNIX equivalent » and a box to enter in the new number 744. There’s no other checkbox options. How do I find that?
WPBeginner Support says
You can enter the file permission by entering the number. Like 644, 655, 755, or 744. Look up for file permissions to learn more.
