Can't upload new Headers

Hello,

first of all, I really love your Theme. But since yesterday I have a little problem: I can’t change the header anymore. In the option menu there is a part where I can upload new Themes and so far it worked without any problems but not anymore.

There is really nothing I have changed. Its the same data that I use every time to create new headers. But it doesn’t work anymore. Even old headers, that worked before, don’t work anymore.

I click on upload, the header gets uploaded (I guess) but its not shown on the Homepage. It stays black.

Any ideas?

Greetings, Kaan.

Im having the same issue. I have a test wordpress setup with this theme and for some reason if i apply a new custom header it will show up black on the main page. This error is the same for the background uploader. Where does the custom header files go? Is there any additional privledges i should be adjusting?

I have found the problem: Contact Form 7 changed the Upload folder. Have changed it and it works.

Where did you go to modify it? I can see the settings are creating sub folders for the month and file under the wp-content folder. Did you change 1 setting and it fixes it for all themes? I can see you can modify the link in wp under Tools > Media.

OK I got it to work now. I guess I should point this out for other users using XAMPP as a testing app. By default WP will change target folder. Under Settings > Media the Full URL path to files will be filled in. Remove the link to set it back to default and it should work. That being said now its all about the thumbnails and background changes to test.

I am having the same problem – but under Settings/Media there is nothing in the Full URL path. my url is blog.kaliday.com, using one of your headers for now, but would like to use mine.

Other ideas?

BTW, I agree with the others, I really like your theme. When I had issues, I looked around for another to substitute, but no joy.

Anyway – it’s working now! I changed the permalinks to default as this seemed to cause an issue with headers in the past, and the header appeared. Then I changed the permalink back to post title and the header seems to be sticking for now. Thank you if you fixed it, and thank you for a great theme in any case.
