Pictures Won't Display In Wordpress Posts

Tried everything that I could think of. Uploaded a pic the usual way (the same way I've done for over 50 other Wordpress sites). All that shows up is the title of the picture within the post. When I click on the title it goes to a dead end, that says wrong page or something like that.

Oh, I've tried using about 8 or 9 different themes, same thing for all.

Weirdest thing. Anyone have any ideas?

Thank you,

Tony Brayley.

    I have used the Genesis Framework with the Streamline Child Theme. I don't think that really matters considering I've attempted this with 8 or 9 other themes that weren't made by Studiopress. However, it's probably wise to give the fullest picture possible if I'm trying to get some help.

    This is a site I'm putting together for a buddy of mine in real estate.

    Here's the link:

    lornedeffett.com

    Just remember, it's totally bare bones. I'm just starting to get things going now.

    Thanks for any help.

    Cheers,

    Tony Brayley.

    Have you looked into the actual path of where the image is suposed to be on the FTP to make sure it was uploaded right ?

    wp-content/uploads/2012/10/Gaylord-Opryland-150x103.jpg

    Does "uploads" have the right chmod 777 or in some cases 770 ?

      I didn't check to see the path. I tried this with 3 different pictures and 8 or 9 different themes. Same result every time.

      Don't know what else to do.

      Thanks for your input,

      Tony.

      You never mentioned if u have checked these.

      If the uploads folder is not properly set it will not work as expected.

        Yes, you're right. Do I check this inside the file through ftp or can I check through the
        Wordpress dashboard?

        I am wondering still, why now? Why all of a sudden would this problem start, when I've made quite a few of these Wordpress sites with no problem?

        Seems so strange.

        Thank you for checking up on me, lol.

        Tony.

    Maybe try rebuilding your thumbnails. I've used this plugin and works fine: WordPress › AJAX Thumbnail Rebuild « WordPress Plugins

      Hi Michael, what am I checking this for? That is, what am I looking for?

      Not as techy as some here.

      I had this problem once before on a different Wordpress install and a guy on Fiverr sorted it out for me, but he wouldn't tell me how he did it. Understandable, but now with each install I have to get help?

      Something, somewhere has changed. I noticed that it was right after the latest Wordpress update, I started to experience this problem.

    Well it would depend on how you installed or install your blogs.

    If you use the autoinstall from cPanel I would think this would not happen however, if u do it manually it is prone to error depending on hosting and how you do it. As I dont know in details how you do it I can't really point straight that this could be the issue but would be one thing to check.

    Back on the issue, It would be better if u can check it from the FTP because you can also see if the file have a SIZE 0 or bigger and folders chmod, if the size is 0 means it was created but the content was not received and if the file is not present then you must set the uploads chmod.

      Just wanted to let everyone know that the problem with the pictures has been solved.

      It was a "permissions" issue and solved by Michael from TOPNICHEWEBSITES. Michael, I just wanted to thank you again. I was getting so frustrated with all this, I could feel my blood-pressure rising...not good.

      My hat's off to you,

      Tony.

    Which leads to what I early mentioned "folders, chmod"

    Glad you got it sorted out.
