Enabling WordPress Flash Uploader

October 5, 2008 Reply

I was going to sleep but need to post this before I forgot about it :32:

By default installation WordPress give you 2 option to upload your files Flash uploader and browser uploader, but if you use wordpress-automatic-upgrade plugins and firefox with noscript/flash blocker when upgrading you will notice that the flash uploader stop working, this is due to 2 SWF that are missing during the upgrading process , the missing SWF is involving our media uploader one.

to confirm it check these files:

/wp-includes/js/swfupload/swfupload_f9.swf

/wp-includes/js/tinymce/plugins/media/img/flv_player.swf

make sure these 2 files exist in the folder if not get a copy of these files on a fresh new wordpress installation and upload it the specific folder.

That should enable your flash uploader back :joget: :31: :32:
