Você está enfrentando problemas de upload de imagens em seu site WordPress?
Para a maioria dos iniciantes, os erros de upload de imagens podem ser bastante confusos porque podem aparecer sem que você faça nada de diferente. De fato, a falha no carregamento de imagens é um dos problemas de imagem mais comuns no WordPress. Felizmente, é muito fácil corrigi-lo e você mesmo pode fazer isso.
Neste artigo, mostraremos como corrigir o problema de upload de imagens no WordPress.
Tutorial em vídeo
Se você preferir instruções por escrito, continue lendo.
O que causa o problema de upload de imagens no WordPress?
O problema de upload de imagens no WordPress geralmente é causado por permissões de arquivo incorretas. Seus arquivos do WordPress são armazenados no servidor de hospedagem na Web e precisam de permissões específicas de arquivo e diretório para funcionar.
Permissões de arquivo incorretas impedem que o WordPress leia ou faça upload de arquivos no servidor de hospedagem. Você pode receber o seguinte erro do WordPress ao fazer o upload de um arquivo de imagem:
‘Não foi possível criar o diretório wp-content/uploads/2019/04. Seu diretório pai pode ser gravado pelo servidor?
Ou você pode ver o erro:
‘O arquivo carregado não pôde ser movido para wp-content/uploads/’.
Outro sinal desse problema é que suas imagens desaparecem da biblioteca de mídia do WordPress.
Meu site estava funcionando bem antes. Quem alterou as permissões de arquivo?
Isso pode acontecer devido a vários motivos. Uma configuração incorreta em seu servidor de hospedagem compartilhada pode, às vezes, alterar essas permissões sem que você faça nada.
Por exemplo, seu provedor de hospedagem na Web executou uma atualização que alterou inesperadamente as permissões de arquivo.
Se tudo o mais estiver funcionando bem em seu site WordPress, basta aplicar as permissões de arquivo corretas para corrigir o problema de upload de imagem.
Dito isso, vamos dar uma olhada em como definir as permissões de arquivo corretas para corrigir problemas de upload de imagens no seu site WordPress.
Como corrigir o problema de upload de imagens no WordPress
Para alterar as permissões dos arquivos, você precisará usar um cliente FTP.
Primeiro, conecte-se ao seu site via FTP e, em seguida, vá para a pasta /wp-content/. Dentro dela, você encontrará a pasta uploads, que é onde o WordPress armazena todos os uploads de mídia, inclusive imagens.
Agora, clique com o botão direito do mouse no diretório de uploads e selecione “File Permissions” (Permissões de arquivo).
Isso abrirá a caixa de diálogo de permissões de arquivo.
Primeiro, você precisará definir as permissões de arquivo para o diretório de uploads e todos os subdiretórios dentro dele como “744”.
Para fazer isso, digite 744 na caixa de valor numérico e marque a caixa ao lado de “Recurse into subdirectories”. Agora, clique no botão de opção “Apply to directories only“ (Aplicar somente a diretórios).
Clique no botão “OK” para aplicar essas alterações. Seu cliente FTP começará a aplicar as permissões de arquivo aos diretórios.
Observação: se a configuração das permissões de diretório para 744 não resolver seu problema, tente 755.
Na próxima etapa, você precisará definir permissões de arquivo para todos os arquivos no diretório de uploads.
Para fazer isso, clique com o botão direito do mouse no diretório de uploads e selecione permissões de arquivo. Na caixa de diálogo de permissões de arquivo, altere o valor numérico para “644”.
Marque a caixa ao lado de “Recurse into subdirectories”. Em seguida, você precisa clicar no botão de opção “Apply to files only” (Aplicar somente a arquivos).
Por fim, basta clicar no botão “OK” para aplicar essas alterações.
O cliente FTP agora alterará as permissões de todos os arquivos dentro da pasta de uploads. Quando isso for feito, você poderá voltar à área de administração do WordPress e tentar carregar imagens novamente.
Se você tiver algum formulário de upload de arquivo em seu site, teste-o também.
Observação: se você não souber como usar um cliente FTP, também poderá usar o gerenciador de arquivos fornecido pela empresa de hospedagem do WordPress. Como as capturas de tela variam de acordo com a hospedagem, você precisará falar com o suporte deles para obter instruções.

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.

Hello,

“The server cannot process the image. This can happen if the server is busy or does not have enough resources to complete the task. Uploading a smaller image may help. Suggested maximum size is 2560 pixels.”
I have compressed the image multiple times, shrinking the size and optimizing it, yet I continue to receive this message even after shutting down the browser and starting again. Can you please advise me on how to upload these files? Thank you!

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.

Hello
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?

By default, WordPress would not include FTP’d files in the media library. It would depend on the specific error. If the default upload method is what is causing the error then you would want to go through the troubleshooting steps in our guide below:

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!
WPBeginner Support says
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.

Hi. When I upload a rectangular photo it uploads as a square cutting off most of the image. Any suggestions? Thank you!

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!

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!

Wow! worked for me! Safari -> Chrome on OSX

755
644
but three of them didn’t works for me
please tell any suggestion ?

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.
