wordpress image upload error, Is its parent directory writable by the server?
Setting your wordpress 2.5 to handle image or any type of media uploads is a bit tricky. I tried the instructions from the wordpress tutorial and still got this error: … Is its parent directory writable by the server?
If you have this problem even after you change your file attributes on the wp-content folder to 777. You have to change the permission in the folder wp-content/uploads to 777 as well. It should work after that.

Hi, I’ve created a new free to join website called The UK’s Best - it aims to showcase the best businesses in the UK, particularly small businesses who I think offer better value for money and customer service than their larger rivals.
You can view the site here UK business directory
The site has just launched and will in the future become a paid for service, so I’d like to offer you this opportunity to join and promote your business (with a permanent link to your website) for free
