WordPress 2.5 image upload problem : Finally Solved

 

I’ve had no problems with WordPress 2.5 until I wanted to upload some files on my mac. I had no problems installing via my PC. I didn’t realise that I had any problems until I went to make a blog post and upload an image. When I tried to upload, I was greeted with the following:



So what was the solution, I did a lot of searching of the web and came accross a solution that involved editing the .htaccess file on the root of the wordpress directory. I added the following code to the file to enable the image upload to work.

<IfModule mod_security.c>
<Files async-upload.php>
SecFilterEngine Off
SecFilterScanPOST Off
</Files>
</IfModule>

As soon as the change was made the problem was fixed and thus why you I’ve been able to upload a screenshot with this post!
