When I move a wordpress website to another domain, I always fail in uploading images. Why is that? I can upload posts and pages but not images.
Move your /wp-content/themes/your-theme/uploads folder to new domain

I successfully migrated from Blogger to wordpress by using blogger importer plugin
my new site where i upload my database has new domain name
Problem is.. Some of the feature images are showing but rest of all
is not showing..
It may happen that Blogger Importer Plugin skipped importing those images.
To fix this problem you can use Cache Images by Matt Mullenweg.
Install this plugin and Go to Tools > Cache Remote Images.
Click Scan.
Now you should see a list of images that are hot-linked from different servers.
Hit the Cache from this domain button and Cache Images plugin will start importing images from those hot-linked domains.
I just uploaded my very first WordPress website and somehow i can't see the images on the website even though i can see the images in the media gallery from the dashboard http://rama.ly/
Wordpress store the full image url in database. When your website was in localhost. The url on an image was like http://localhost/rama/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/3000-x-i-dont-know.png
You moved your site to live domain but you have not changed localhost to rama.ly in your database.
Now you can install this plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/better-search-replace/ and replace all localhost to rama.ly that will fix the broken images.
Also for moving wordpress sites you can use very easy to use plugins like duplicator / backupbuddy. those plugin really makes the migration easier.
I have recently transferred my wordpress site to hostgator. I have only changed the hosting, the domain name is still the same. After transferring my site all the images in the site are invisible even if i upload any new image its is not showing on site.
I have tried to upload the "UPLOAD" folder again and also changed the permissions but the result is still the same.
Please help me as this is a critical issue for me.
My site URL is www.animationcoursesahmedabad.com
define('WP_HOME','http://animationcoursesahmedabad.com');
define('WP_SITEURL','http://animationcoursesahmedabad.com');
Put this in wp-config.php at root
I see a lot of javascript errors. That may be the problem.
I'm creating my own WordPress theme and I've set it up locally with MAMP. It all works fine and the theme appears when I enter localhost/wordpress in my browser. But when I enter localhost/wordpress/wp-content/themes/mysitename it is just a white blank page.
In the WordPress dashboard under themes the image next to my theme where it lets you activate it is also blank.
How can I get it to appear? Thanks in advance!
WordPress uses a frontend controller system where all site traffic passes through the index.php file in the root of the site.
Directing your browser to "localhost/wordpress/wp-content/themes/mysitename" bypasses the main controller, which means you are bypassing WordPress altogether and attempting to directly access files on the server. That directory would need to have an index.html or index.php file within it to produce some kind of output.
In order to have an image beside your custom theme in the admin, you need to create a screenshot of your theme and name it "screenshot" (can be a jpg or png) and place it in the root folder of your theme. Look inside other WP theme folders for an example of what I am talking about.
I have a WordPress blog installed on my server but when i upload a image it goes into one directory, but the blog front end is looking for the images in another directory, so the images show as broken. I have been manually copying the uploaded images from server location to the one WP looks for them in and it works.
How can i set the WP blog to upload to the same dir on the filesystem that the WP front end is trying to pull from?
The problem is most likely WordPress failing to correctly guess the upload path and URL.
Go to Settings > Miscellaneous and hardcode the correct path and full URL.
