Hey,

when trying to upload an image sometimes it's working great, sometimes it says forbidden and sometimes it shows OK but do nothing.

we have tried to maximize the file upload and all this but nothing.

Any help please?

Thanks!

I was able to resolve this issue without having to put Wordfence into learning mode. (Learning mode can expose your site to vulnerabilities because Wordfence will whitelist and possibly not block a number of complex attacks. See the section at the bottom titled "What to Do If a Page Is Blocked After Learning Mode Is Complete" https://www.wordfence.com/help/firewall/learning-mode/ )

Same thing happened to our website. Johnny explained some options in a support ticket, but it ultimately was a conflict with the Wordfence plugin.

Here's what resolved our "Forbidden" messages: Wordfence > Firewall > All Firewall Options > Web Application Firewall Status and change that from Enabled and Protecting to Learning Mode. (This should allow the Wordfence Firewall to whitelist the action.) Then go in as a customer and try to upload images as they normally would.

Deactivating Wordfence solved this problem for us as the plugin was causing this issue.

Any new feedback or update on this? If Wordfence is interfering, did you remove it or just have some settings adjusted on wordfence end?

I have the same problem here. Gives me OK error. Has anybody fixed this issue?

I have the same problem but only on certain image. It says OK on white popup. Any other solution? 

Hi Stanley, first of all thank you so much for the quick reply and the help!

i've just found what it was! it's WORDFENCE

the plugin for security.

nevermind:) got it solved thanks to you!

Ah sorry to hear that.  I don't know.  The only other thing I can think of is make sure your images are being uploaded to a server.

I've had to work out so many kinks and produce so many work arounds that I dont remember everything I did.  But I can't think of anything else to solve that, If I do I will let you know.

Good Luck

Yeah man, thanks for the help but it's still happaning.

when i try to change my server php to 5.2 (the website doesn't load at all saying something is missing...) so i've tried to change it to 5.6 (newer version..)

but still no luck.

btw, i notice something weird that when i'm administrator it's working fine but when i'm using incognito / other user not admin it's not working, saying FORBIDDEN.

any other suggestion please??

Thanks

So, i've checked and my php version is 5.4

should i edit it to be 5.2?! in order for it to work.... it sounds weird, no?

maybe update it to 5.6?! 

My problem was because I had the wrong PHP version set.

I was using PHP 5.2.  Then I thought I read somewhere in the FPD changelog that I could use PHP 7.0.  But then I started getting that error so I changed it back to 5.2 and it worked.
