Fixing the WordPress Media Upload ‘HTTP Error’ Problem

Posted: 2016/06/13 Category: Tips and Tricks

After having spent many hours searching how to fix this problem of uploading an image (likely large) and only getting a message of HTTP Error the FSD Web Penguin finally figured it out. The solution was dead simple too. Mileage may vary based on your hosting service.

All of the references pointed to some known ImageMagick issue with WP. Finally we looked in to our hosting provider after having tried all the .htaccess and function.php modifications found everywhere. It was clear that the provider offered the ImageMagick PHP extension. We finally read on to find out that the provider DID NOT ENABLE the extensions by default. Likely for security reasons and we can fully understand that.

Solution:

edit your php.ini to include

extension = imagick.so

Will you be attending the upcoming FBRI Training…

Posted: 2016/05/21 Category: Announcements

Hello everyone. Just over a week ago FBRI announced the upcoming “FPS Localization by SiteGrid and CASH Card” to be held on June 7 – 8, 2016. FSD will be sending one of the office penguins to attend this workshop as many of you have had great questions about the 10 meter site and associated projects. In preparation for the upcoming workshop FSD has developed a quick calculator for Android. (sorry IOS and MS) This calculator can be side loaded into your android device and can calculate 10m site based on tree measurements. Hopefully this will be useful.

Download: 10mSiteCalc (The download will start automatically)

The download can also be found under Tips and Tricks and Downloads.

Don’t forget about the online calculator here.
