Los errores de subida de imágenes pueden ser frustrantes, especialmente para los principiantes. En un momento, todo funciona bien, y al siguiente, no se puede subir una imagen sin ningún cambio en su extremo.
Este es en realidad uno de los problemas / conflicto / incidencia de imagen más comunes en WordPress. La buena noticia es que la corrección es más fácil de lo que piensas.
Nos hemos encontrado con innumerables problemas de subida de imágenes en nuestros propios sitios web de WordPress, así que sabemos lo molestos que pueden ser estos errores. Por suerte, esto también significa que conocemos varios métodos para diagnosticar y corregir estos problemas.
En este artículo, te guiaremos a través de los pasos para corregir los problemas de subida de imágenes en WordPress. Sigue estos pasos y volverás a subir imágenes en un abrir y cerrar de ojos.
¿Cuál es la causa del problema de carga de imágenes en WordPress?
Hay algunas razones comunes por las que puede tener problemas para subir imágenes en WordPress.
En primer lugar, los problemas entre navegadores pueden ser un factor. A veces, una imagen sube bien en un navegador, pero no en otro. Los distintos navegadores gestionan las subidas de archivos de forma diferente, lo que puede dar problemas.
Los nombres de archivo no válidos también pueden causar problemas. Si el nombre de su archivo de imagen contiene caracteres especiales o espacios, es posible que WordPress no lo acepte. Por eso recomendamos utilizar siempre nombres de archivo sencillos, con letras, números y guiones.
La caché también puede interferir en la subida de imágenes. Una caché obsoleta puede causar todo tipo de problemas, por lo que vaciar la caché de su sitio puede resolver los problemas de subida.
Además, algunos plugins pueden entrar en conflicto con el proceso de subida de imágenes. Un plugin puede estar causando un problema sin que te des cuenta. Por ejemplo, los ajustes o características de un plugin a veces interfieren con la función de subida.
O tu tema puede ser el culpable. Algunos temas no están construidos correctamente y pueden interferir con la subida de imágenes. Un tema mal codificado puede crear conflictos y errores que impidan subidas correctas.
También podría deberse a permisos de archivo incorrectos. Esto significa que WordPress no puede escribir en la carpeta de subidas y que se producirán errores durante la subida si los permisos no están establecidos correctamente.
Por último, podría ser un problema de límite de memoria. Si su sitio no tiene suficiente memoria asignada por sus servicios de alojamiento, entonces no puede manejar archivos grandes. Esto puede provocar errores de subida o subidas incompletas.

Solucionar el problema de carga de imágenes en WordPress
Entender las causas comunes de los problemas de subida de imágenes en WordPress es el primer paso. Y ahora que conoce algunas de las razones más comunes de los problemas de subida de imágenes en WordPress, le mostraremos cómo corregirlos.
Aquí tienes un resumen de todos los consejos que te daremos en esta guía:
¿Preparados? Primeros pasos.
Consejo 1: Vuelva a cargar la página o pruebe con otro navegador
En primer lugar, lo más frecuente es que el problema se corrija recargando la página. Puede parecer una corrección sencilla, pero suele funcionar.
El problema de subida de imágenes puede deberse a que su sesión de acceso ha caducado. Si esto ocurre, al recargar la página o volver a navegar desde otra pestaña, saldrá desconectado. Deberá acceder de nuevo.
El problema también puede deberse a que WordPress está perdiendo la conexión con el navegador. Esto puede ocurrir debido a problemas con su proveedor de servicios de Internet o problemas temporales con su alojamiento de WordPress. Recargar la página y volver a cargar el archivo de imagen puede resolver este error.
Otras veces, el problema de subida de imágenes puede estar relacionado con el navegador. Prueba a subir la imagen con otro navegador. Esto puede ayudarte a identificar si el problema es específico de tu navegador actual.
Consejo 2: Vuelva a cargar la imagen a través de la biblioteca de medios
Si el problema persiste tras recargar la página o cambiar de navegador, pruebe a volver a cargar la imagen a través de la biblioteca de medios.
Por lo tanto, en lugar de subir la imagen directamente a través de la entrada o página, tendrá que ir a Medios ” Añadir nuevo archivo de medios desde el escritorio de WordPress.
A continuación, simplemente haga clic en “Seleccionar archivos” e intente subir la imagen allí.
A veces, esto puede corregir el problema.
Consejo 3: Cambie el nombre de su archivo de imagen
Si el nombre de su archivo de imagen contiene espacios, WordPress podría rechazarlo. Además, evite utilizar caracteres especiales como ‘#’, ‘!’ o ‘@’. Estos caracteres pueden crear problemas porque los servidores web y los navegadores pueden no ser compatibles con ellos.
Por lo tanto, asegúrese de cambiar el nombre de su archivo de imagen a algo simple y directo. Deberás usar solo letras, números y guiones.
Por ejemplo, en lugar de “mi imagen nº 1.jpg”, puede cambiarle el nombre a “mi-imagen-1.jpg”.
Consejo 4: Vacíe la memoria caché
Una caché obsoleta puede dar lugar a diferentes problemas, incluyendo problemas de subida de imágenes.
La caché se utiliza para acelerar su sitio almacenando copias de su contenido, pero a veces puede causar conflictos. Una caché obsoleta o dañada puede impedir que las nuevas subidas sean reconocidas o procesadas correctamente.
Actualizar la caché puede resolver el problema, ya que garantiza que el sitio procese la nueva subida sin que se interpongan datos antiguos o conflictivos.
Por suerte, es fácil vaciar la caché de tu sitio. Por lo general, esto se puede hacer a través de su plugin de almacenamiento en caché, como WP Rocket, o el panel de control de su proveedor de alojamiento.
También puede vaciar la caché de su navegador. Su navegador almacena copias de las páginas web, incluidas las imágenes, para cargar los sitios más rápidamente la siguiente vez que los visite. Por eso, una caché de navegador obsoleta puede causar problemas con nuevas subidas.
Para vaciar la caché del navegador, normalmente hay que ir a los ajustes del navegador, buscar la opción para vaciar los datos de navegación o la caché y seleccionarla.
Para más detalles sobre cómo vaciar la caché, puedes consultar nuestra guía sobre cómo vaciar la caché de WordPress. Una vez vaciada la caché, intenta volver a subir la imagen.
Consejo 5: Marcar / comprobar problemas con plugins y temas
A veces, los plugins o temas entran en conflicto con el proceso de subida de imágenes. Esto puede ocurrir porque algunos plugins o temas no son totalmente compatibles con la última versión de WordPress o entre sí.
Para diagnosticarlo y corregirlo, tendrá que realizar algunos pasos para solucionar el problema.
En primer lugar, deberás desactivar todos tus plugins. Para ello, ve a la sección “Plugins” de tu escritorio de WordPress y selecciona “Desactivar” para cada plugin.
También puedes desactivarlos todos a la vez.
Para obtener instrucciones más detalladas, puede consultar nuestra guía sobre cómo desactivar plugins de WordPress fácilmente.
A continuación, puedes cambiar a un tema por defecto, como Twenty Twenty-One.
Puede hacerlo yendo a Apariencia ” Temas en su escritorio de WordPress y activando el tema por defecto.
Este paso le ayuda a determinar si el problema está relacionado con su tema actual.
A continuación, intente subir la imagen de nuevo. Si la subida funciona, significa que uno de tus plugins o tu tema anterior causaron el problema.
Para encontrar la causa exacta, puedes empezar reactivando tus plugins uno a uno. Después de activar cada plugin, intente subir una imagen de nuevo. De esta forma, podrás encontrar el plugin específico que causa el conflicto.
Si el problema reaparece después de activar un plugin en particular, has encontrado al culpable. Ahora es el momento de buscar una alternativa o contactar con el soporte de WordPress.
Si el cambio de plugins no resuelve el problema, es posible que esté relacionado con el tema que estabas utilizando. Puede ponerse en contacto con el desarrollador del tema para obtener soporte o considerar el uso de un tema de WordPress diferente.
Consejo 6: Ajuste los permisos de archivo
El problema de subida de imágenes en WordPress también puede deberse a permisos de archivo incorrectos. Los archivos de WordPress se almacenan en el servidor de alojamiento web y necesitan permisos específicos de archivo y directorio para funcionar.
Los permisos de archivo incorrectos impiden a WordPress leer o subir archivos en el servidor de alojamiento. Es posible que aparezca el siguiente error de WordPress al subir un archivo de imagen:
No se ha podido crear el directorio wp-content/uploads/2019/04. ¿El servidor tiene permisos de escritura en su directorio principal?
O puede que veas el error:
‘El archivo subido no pudo ser movido a wp-content/uploads/.’
Otro signo de este problema es que tus imágenes desaparecen de la biblioteca de medios de WordPress.
Mi sitio funcionaba bien antes. ¿Quién ha cambiado los permisos de los archivos?
Esto puede ocurrir por varias razones. Una mala configuración en su servidor de alojamiento compartido a veces puede cambiar esos permisos sin que usted haga nada.
Por ejemplo, su proveedor de alojamiento web puede haber realizado una actualización que haya cambiado inesperadamente los permisos de los archivos.
Si todo lo demás funciona correctamente en su sitio web de WordPress, sólo tiene que aplicar los permisos de archivo correctos para corregir el problema de subida de imágenes.
Nota: Este método es un poco más avanzado. Si necesita ayuda, no dude en ponerse en contacto con nuestro soporte de WordPress de emergencia para obtener ayuda.
Cambio de permisos de archivo
Para cambiar los permisos de los archivos, deberá utilizar un cliente FTP.
En primer lugar, conéctese a su sitio web a través de FTP y vaya a la carpeta /wp-content/
. Dentro encontrarás la carpeta uploads
, que es donde WordPress almacena todas las subidas de medios, incluidas las imágenes.
Ahora haga clic con el botón derecho del ratón en el directorio de subidas
y seleccione “Permisos de archivo”.
Aparecerá el cuadro de diálogo de permisos de archivo.
A partir de aquí, tendrá que establecer los permisos de archivo para el directorio de subidas y todos los subdirectorios dentro de él a ‘744’.
Para ello, introduzca 744 en la casilla de valor numérico y marque la casilla siguiente a “Recurrir a subdirectorios”. A continuación, sólo tienes que hacer clic en el botón de opción “Aplicar solo a directorios“.
Continúa y haz clic en el botón “Aceptar” para aplicar estos cambios. Tu cliente FTP empezará a aplicar permisos de archivo a los directorios.
Nota: Si establecer los permisos de directorio en 744 no parece solucionar su problema, pruebe con 755.
En el siguiente paso, deberá establecer los permisos de archivo para todos los archivos del directorio de subidas.
Para ello, haga clic con el botón derecho del ratón en el directorio de subidas
y seleccione permisos de archivo. En el cuadro de diálogo de permisos de archivo, cambie el valor numérico a ‘644’.
A continuación, puedes marcar la casilla siguiente a “Recurrir a subdirectorios” y seleccionar “Aplicar solo a archivos”.
Por último, basta con hacer clic en el botón “Aceptar” para aplicar estos cambios.
El cliente FTP cambiará los permisos de todos los archivos dentro de la carpeta de subidas. Una vez hecho esto, puede volver a su área de administrador / administración de WordPress y tratar de subir imágenes de nuevo.
Si tiene formularios de subida de archivos en su sitio web, debería probarlos también.
Nota: Si no sabes utilizar un cliente FTP, también puedes utilizar el gestor de archivos que te proporciona tu empresa de alojamiento de WordPress. Dado que las capturas de pantalla varían de un alojamiento a otro, tendrás que hablar con su soporte para encontrar instrucciones.
Consejo 7: Aumente el límite de memoria PHP
A veces, los problemas de subida de imágenes se producen porque WordPress no tiene suficiente memoria para procesar la subida. Aumentar el límite de memoria PHP puede ayudar a corregir esto.
Normalmente, puede hacerlo editando su archivo wp-config.php
. Sin embargo, la forma más fácil es ponerse en contacto con su proveedor de alojamiento para obtener ayuda. Ellos pueden aumentar tu límite de memoria.
Para más detalles, consulte nuestro tutorial sobre cómo aumentar el límite de memoria PHP en WordPress.

Let’s add the fact that WordPress creates a new folder each month, in wp-content/uploads.
Probably, when the new folder is automaticaly created, it hasn’t the correct permissions :
We have to modify the permissions each month.
WPBeginner Support
That should not normally be the case, we would recommend checking with your hosting provider to ensure they don’t have a security setting that could be the root of that issue.

Images to my wordpress site seem to upload correctly but then then disappear and an icon for broken image link appears. In the media library the image shows as a gray block. If I try to edit the image then I can see the image but when I save it again it’s gray again. I checked my permissions and the are set to 755.

FTP permissions are fine, when I try to upload, the original file goes to the FTP Uploads folder, but WordPress does not recognize it and displays error on upload, try again later
Any tips?

I’m not sure this will solve my problem. I have an educational website and we give away free books and educational materials. Recently I uploaded a PDF document (a chart) into my library, put it in 2 of my web pages, and created the link to open it. That was fine, but later, I decided to improve the document, took it off, recreated it and uploaded it again to the library. The original document was deleted completely from my own files, but when I upload it to my website it comes up with the OLD document. Somehow the “delete permanently” feature within the library is NOT actually deleting it. HELP!

New image uploaded always has 640 permission. And if I access image with 640 permission, it will return 404. But if I change it to 644, I can access the image.
Is 640 the correct permission for image uploaded? Or is it 644?

I’m having a problem sizing my photos for a wordpress site and getting them to display correctly. I’ve resized the images several times to smaller, but they still appear showing only portion of the image and not the full image – even though I have also tried resizing in the edit section of the gallery! How do I get them to load in the full size if the image is a suitable size and resolution!

Hi everyone,
I am scratching my head on this current issue with Wordpress 5.0 logo uploading. The image file (59K) will upload to media no problem, but it WILL NOT show on the page, instead it would show my icon file instead. I don’t understand. I’ve tried resizing the size to 100px to no prevail.
Could this be the theme fault? I am using OceanWP. I tried contacting my host and they recommend getting my logo designer to optimise it for WP5.0. Which doesn’t make sense. if anyone could please give me any leads to this issue. Thank you!

I tried this initially with 744. This stopped any images appearing at all for me on either wp-admin or my live website. Which was worrying and panic inducing!
So then tried 755, and images are appearing again on my live website. Which is a relief.
Still having exactly the same issue with uploading images though. Getting ‘http error’.

Go to your hosting cPanel, go to PHP Version in the Software block..
Go to PHP Options in the right button
Edit to be like this :
:
memory_limit 1024M
post_max_size 128M
upload_max_filesize 64M
Then back to cPanel frontpage
Go to ModSecurity in the Security section
Change to Disable for your domain.
VOILAA !!!!

If the issue is cropping up after transferring a site to a new domain this works for me:
open the Settings menu, and select Media. If you see a file path with a textbox displaying where the files should be uploaded to, delete the text in the file path textbox, and click Save Changes once you’re done.
No try uploading an image, should work fine.
Katie
Thanks – that solved my problem. The server path had somehow been defined in Settings > Media. Removed it and replaced with the default wp-content/uploads, saved and that fixed it

Hi Tom,
I just wanted to say thank you as well. Your post saved me a lot of grief! I used a plugin to migrate a site to a new provider. The tool is excellent, but in this instance were so many files in my uploads directory that I needed to exclude images and move them separately via ftp. I spent an hour carefully checking file permissions and ownership in the Wordpress uploads directory until I came across your post. Sure enough, nder “Settings / Media” there was a hardcoded path valid only with my old hosting provider. Great post!

Thank you very much. My problem was same and your solution was great

Thank you, thank you, thank you!! This happened when I migrated this site. Hasn’t happened to any of the other sites I’ve migrated, but the Settings>Media path was exactly the problem.

I must have read two dozen different fixes fir this image error thing, then found a solution that s far, far easier than anything else I have read. In fact here’s the solution in three words: Change your browser.
Yep, that’s all I did. I’ve tried lots of different “solutions” with no joy, then just by chance I was working on a different computer one day, using Opera instead of Chrome (I’ve had the error with IE, Edge, Firefox etc. too) and I had no problem uploading my images. I’ve been using Opera for the purpose for months now and never had the HTTP error since.
I’m not saying it will work for every occurrence but it’s got to be worth a try!

755
644
but three of them didn’t works for me
please tell any suggestion ?

Me too! I even thought I fixed the problem by increasing the upload size through the Media section under Settings and nope! You know what got it to work?
Resizing my freaking images. Silly me thought I was doing that through the settings on Wordpress, but nope!
I have a Mac and I resized my large images to 1920×1080 or less and made sure my Media Settings allowed that and sure enough, it works! All those hours of frustration… *sigh* I hope that helps!

I have no problem with inserting photos by doing so inside a paragraph and wraping text around it. But I cannot insert a larger photo in an area free of a paragraph. The size of the photo doesn’t change even though the file is larger. I changed the settings (media/settings) but nothing works. Can you help?
WPBeginner Support
Hi Joe,
Here is a simple tip that you can try if you haven’t already tried it. Press the enter key twice after adding a paragraph. Click on the upload media button to upload your photo. In the right column, select Full Size and then click on the insert image button. As soon as photo appears in your visual editor, press the enter key twice and start typing.
Alice
It still doesn’t solve my problem. I recently moved my newly created website from a subdomain to my main domain and everything worked fine except for my uploads. I went to my optons.php and tried to change my upload path. I noticed that when I tried to upload a file, the file is not even in my folder, doesn’t show up in my media library as a thumbnail. However, when I clicked on the broken image and clicked “edit image,” the image actually showed up!!! How weird! How can I fix my problem?
Melina
Hi Alice, I have exactly the same problem! I tried all the solutions that are given down but because my problem is with my multisite duplicates and not with the root site, none of them works. I can uploads the pictures, the sub-site recognizes they are there but shows just grey thumbnails. When I go to my ftp all access are correct and I have already tried changing the upload path. Nothing works! Could you solve your problem? What was the solution??

Similar problem is occurring with me. I have tried everything but still no use. When I upload an image, I see a blank thumbnail clicking on which I see a blank preview, but if I click on edit then only I am able to see the image. When I put that image in any post I see a broken link.

did anyone find the solution to this issue. I am having the same occurrence with a cloned site that was created to work on for a site rebuild

I refreshed cache in WordPress and that fixed it.
