[Resolved] Media Library freeze

[Heath]

Tom,

This is most likely way beyond the scope of your awesome theme, but I’m hitting a wall everywhere I look for answers (other forums & hosting support), so figured I might as well ask here.

My media library uploader isn’t working. Whenever I try to upload an image, it gets 25-75% done then freezes. Not only does it freeze, but my whole connection to the domain freezes and I have to reboot my computer to reestablish a connection to the website’s wordpress.

One support forum suggested adding this to the theme functions.php
“add_filter( ‘wp_image_editors’, ‘change_graphic_lib’ );

function change_graphic_lib($array) {
return array( ‘WP_Image_Editor_GD’, ‘WP_Image_Editor_Imagick’ );
}”

I tried that, but the problem persists. I also tried another suggestion: Adding “SetEnv MAGICK_THREAD_LIMIT 1” to my htaccess file. Didn’t help.

Like I said, I know this is outside your scope, but I’m desperate. Any ideas??

Maybe check your error_log file on your server for any errors.

Have you tried from another browser/computer/internet connection?

Good call. It is my work computer/firewall. I uploaded images from home with no issues. Sigh.

I spent hours barking up the wrong tree (wordpress, hosting, etc.)

I appreciate your response! You can delete this thread if you want, since it’s irrelevant to GP.

Glad you got it working 🙂
