814 PointsI have trouble uploading my pictures
Hi there, I have trouble uploading my pictures. I keep getting an error message (an error occurred in the upload. please try again later) and the upload never reaches completion. Its important to say that I am following the procedure as shown through the lessonβs video and therefore I cannot really identify the reason that the photo uploads keep failing.
All my pictures are under 6Mb as asked.
Thank you

Although the file size is under 6mb, are the actual image dimensions still quite large as this could be causing the upload error?
Here's a WordPress support topic post from someone who appeared to have the same issue but found that the dimensions were the cause (larger than 1000px x 1000px).
Hope that helps.

814 PointsHi there guys and thanks for the help but nothing seems to work. I can't tracked donw the php.ini file and I have tired uploading pictures that were really small in size and still get the same error. All these when I use XAMPP whilst everything seems to work when I use FileZilla.
