Correcting the “Http Error” when uploading pix

If you’re having problems you can either install a no flash plugin but why not have your wordpress installation working the way it is supposed to?

Download your .htaccess file and look for the part that says “END Wordpress”. It is circled in red in this screenshot:

Htaccess SS1

Paste this code after that line

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

Upload it and it should work just fine! Here is a shot of what it should look like

Update: Big Thanks to Micheal who pointed out that you should be sure to keep checking your htaccess file when installing plugins because they could change it

  • If you are using this change, just make sure to note it down, as some plug-ins may modify your WordPress htaccess file (such as the WP-SuperCache plug-in), and this change can be lost

  • I have been looking a fix for weeks!!!!!
    Thank you !
