my half-arsed attempt at blogging
Can’t upload images to a Wordpress blog?
If, like the guys in the ORG HQ, you find yourself unable to upload images in a Wordpress Blog, and are befuddled by the reams of posts &c on the web, well, here’s another idea that might sort you out:
Remove the crap from old installs, in your ~/.mozilla directory. And by crap, well, I mean:
- appreg
- mozver.dat
- pluginreg.dat
- plugins/
cd .mozilla
rm -rf plugins/
rm appreg
rm mozver.dat
cd firefox/
rm -rf pluginreg.dat
Astonishingly, by removing a couple of bits of pelt, the uploads worked for the guys.
Seeing as this is my blog, and people expect me to be miserable, here’s my whine: why the fuck don’t people SEARCH THE FUCKING ARCHIVES on forums before posting a new question? I gave up, and went back to old-fashioned testing.
Oh, and I should probably plug a fairly new site I recently discovered: stackoverflow — about all I can whine about with that is that is uses OpenID…

I’ve looked in the firefox install directory but can’t find those files.

they’re more likely to be in your home directory:
per ~/.mozilla (should work on linux/mac), or have a read of the support site
