I installed the Gallery Add-On for ModX Revo (2.3.3-pl) today.
But I am not able to add a new Album. If I try it the "Add Album window" just stays and a second window (strangely invisible) opens up.
It "displays" a 500 Internal Server error.
The Modx logs are empty.
Google didn't help either.
Also tried the add-on Cliche with the same results.
The site is running on a shared host from alfahosting.de. Memory size is set to 64M and the php Version is 5.6.6.
I double checked all folder and file permissions as a 500 is most likely triggered by wrong permissions. (Files 644, Folders 755)
I hope you guys can help me (and others with the same problem)

My website had been working well. But recently I started to see some abnormalities.
When I upload a media file, it says the file can't be moved to upload/2022/08; When I create a new post, the featured image choice section on the backend are gone; On frontend, plugin WP-SCSS is reporting file permission issue on the cache folder;
I had to manually change the related folder from 0755 to 0777 to solve these issues. But why all of a sudden it requires 0777 while it never had? The only change I made recently to the server is doing some package upgrade for my linux server. It was a one-click-go and I didn't take a closer look to what had been upgraded but I do remember seeing most items are related to PHP8.0 or PHP8.1. Could this be the reason the file permission issue is acting up?
I am trying to upload images into the media manager of a Wordpress website for my clients. No issues last time I touched this website, which was about a month ago.
So far, I have:
Tried uploading images that are already in the media manager (same size, file, etc)
checked all permissions in the FTP (all permissions are fine)
disabled each plugin, 1 by 1, until all were disabled to test if that was the issue (it wasn't)
uploaded an image directly into the FTP to get it to appear (it didn't)
reset the upload location for the media manager (thought that was the issue, but it wasn't. More on that below)
made a lot of grumpy noises
tried uploading different files (didn't work)
Reinstalled the latest update of WP
So far, here's what I know:
When I click "edit image" the image appears in the editor
In the FTP, when I upload the image, it appears in the appropriate folder (public_html/wp-content/uploads/2021/11)
when I access the image from the FTP, it is there in all dimensions as created by WP
The URL of http(s)://company.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/name.jpg brings me to a blank page
No errors are returning in console expect that there is a missing resource
It's even worse on Safari (as opposed to Chrome), where none of my images are appearing
So far, every answer I can find for this problem involves the permissions for the files, none of which seem to affect anything for me. The files upload automatically at a 644 permission level, though I can change them to a 744 and still get nothing.
SOS and thanks for any help!
Unfortunately, I don't have much of an answer as to why it works, but I do have a solution.
I backed up my WordPress site using a plugin, then restored the backup. My plan was just to do the backup, then restore an old backup, but just in case I tried restoring the backup I just created seconds before—and voila, it worked. I don't know why, but hey! I have a solution.
So make a backup, and then restore that backup.
Thank you to #bossman for helping out in the comments.
when i upload an image in wordpress media library this message appears
post-processing of the image failed likely because the server is busy or does not have enough resources. uploading a smaller image may help. suggested maximum size is 2500 pixels.
i have tried some methods to solve it like increase Maximum upload file size and change php version
I'm using hostGator as a web host .
use wp filter
add_filter( 'big_image_size_threshold', '__return_false' );
I faced the same issue and in my case it was related to nginx
413 Error response
Request Entity too large
and yes image was more than 2M by default in NGinx configuration
client_max_body_size 2M; -> client_max_body_size 64M;
should be set in server or location section of .conf file
Wordpress was running in docker compose and that was the root cause
If this error occurs on your Local by Flywheel desktop app I was able to fix it by changing the web server from nginx to Apache.
What fixed this error for me was updating an image related plugin called Images to WebP from version 1.9 to the latest which is 4.1 at the time of writing. And everything worked just fine afterwards. I found the solution here https://support.nova.bi/d/3-wordpress-error-while-uploading-images. I had tried everything including increasing PHP allocated memory, restarting my server, checking Wordpress permissions, modifying current theme functions.php file... but nothing worked. Only after I updated the plugin the upload worked again.
Hope this helps someone.
There are a few solutions to this issue. First, are you running PHP 7.3 and WordPress 5.3? You may try downgrading to PHP 7.2.
Next, you may try increasing your site’s memory limit.
If neither of these works you may attempt to work around it.
Go to your media library and select any picture. Preferably one that you managed to upload successfully. Click Edit and look at where the picture is located. keep this open or remember it.
Connect to your server via an FTP client and navigate to this folder where your images are stored. Upload your large photographs to this folder.
They won’t show up in your media library yet. You need to use a plugin called 'Add From Server'. Download that and install/activate it (by Dion Hulse).
Backup your WordPress installation (just in case).
Finally, hover over Media and then select the new option = Add From Server
Navigate to the folder where you uploaded your photos. Make sure you select just the photos you want to import into your Media Library (although you could delete the duplicates if you make a mistake).
After you click go, it’ll take some time, but don't cancel it or refresh the page. Just wait, and you’ll get a notification on the same screen when it's done. Along with a new list of imported files (including size variations if applicable).
Now your photos will be in your media library with ‘scaled’ at the end. You can now use these in your posts and they will work just fine.
NOTES
The files are imported to wherever you select them from. So it’s important that you put them in the same folder as the rest of your active pictures BEFORE you import them. Otherwise, they’ll show up in the media library, but won’t actually work on your website (took a while to figure this out).
I’d recommend importing 10-15 pictures at a time if they are large. Any more and you risk being signed out of your cPanel due to inactivity and it may break your installation (maybe, hence the backup).
Also, you may look through this wordpress.org thread as many solutions are discussed in the thread. https://wordpress.org/support/topic/unable-to-upload-images-67/page/5/

Problem description
When I try open W3 Total Cache settings page I got the following error:
You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page
This is the only one plugin that I cannot edit. It's installed on multisite page and it's activated for the whole network. I can normally delete it and activate / deactivate for the whole network. The error occurs when I'm trying to open settings page on one of the pages within this network.
I'm using localhost - just so you know but I'm quite sure that it does not change anything in this case.
Solving attempts
I have checked user capabilities and user_level in database (they are set to administrator and "10").
I tried reloading APC and PHP-FPM (found this while googling). I have tried clearing browser cache and opening site in incognito mode.
I have tried reinstalling plugin, deactivate it and activate again (multiple times).
You need to change your permissions of the wp-contents and all folders within it.
Try 774, if that doesn't work try 775.
This should fix your issue, let me know if you have any issues.
I have a WordPress blog that is on a VPS. Everything has been working fine until today when I realised that my featured images are no longer displaying. I logged in to my dashboard, media library, and all the image thumbnails are no longer displaying properly.
Before this time, I had a little issue with my caching plugin (W3Total Cache), so I deactivated it, and my site continued to function normally. But now, no featured image is displayed all through the site. What amazes me is that inline images in a post are still displaying in the site. See example.
Now my site's homepage is just blank, because no featured images are displayed. As of today, images which I attached in the post are just seen as links, but if the link is clicked, it redirects to the image. Here are some of the things I've tried so far:
I've run df -h ssh command to verify if my diskpace is full.
I've restarted mysql server several times.
I've manually downloaded wordpress .zip file, and upload to the site.
I've automatically reinstall wordpress using http://www.example.com/wp-admin/update-core.php.
I've switched to a default theme.
I've tried some of the resources similar to this question here, but none of the proffered solutions resolved my issue.
My permission settings for all the sub-directories under wp-content is 755. I have also tried changing them to 775 and 777.
*. I've used the Regenerate Thumbnails plugin to try to regenerate the thumbnails, but it returned an error The error message was: The originally uploaded image file cannot be found at, but when I view the image directly from my browser, it returns the image.
I've also used the WP Original Media Path plugin to try and restore the media path (if it was messed up), but to no avail.
I've deactivated all plugins too.
I just checked my wp_postmeta table in my DB and it returned this error wp_postmeta table is marked as crashed
How do I rectify this issue?
Since the source of your homepage has nothing in the main section:
<section class="entry-content clearfix" itemprop="articleBody">
</section> <!-- end article section -->
and also due to the last item in your question, I assume you have a database problem instead of missing files (which I think would throw some 404s in my browser instead).
Do you have WP_DEBUG_LOG? If so, check wp-content/debug.log for errors. Be sure to launch phpMyAdmin and browse around the tables to see everything is good in there.
Use CHECK TABLE to confirm if tables are corrupted, and in that case use REPAIR TABLE to try to fix them (maybe phpMyAdmin has those in its GUI, I'm not sure right now).
In IIS -> Php Manager-> Php Extensions -> php_gd2.dll enable. refresh or restart the server it will work...
After long days try got this solution.
