How Do I Upload Files In WordPress?

by Brian Groce on March 17, 2010

Q: I want to be able to upload images (for ads, banners, etc.) without having to FTP in. I’ve been doing it by adding them to a dummy post and then copying the link and adding where I need it-is there a better solution?

A: There’s a built in solution for WordPress to do just this.

In the sidebar of the WordPress Admin Area, click on “Media > Add New” (located at http://yoursite.com/wp-admin/media-new.php).

Upload Files In WordPress via the Media Section

From there you’ll see the same file uploading interface that you do when you create a post or page.

If you need assistance, please contact us.

Excellent, thanks! Btw, looks like your image is broken. :)

LaVonne, no problem at all! And you caught us while we were migrating servers…which gives us another tip…don’t point people to your site right before you’re going to be doing some maintenance! :)
