    Hi there – I loaded Alora 2.7.1 into a new WordPress site and was able to upload three images for my sliders. Then all of the sudden, I started getting http errors when uploading images – can you let me know what might be the problem, and how to fix it?

    Hi,

    Your images might be too large in file size for your server to handle.
    Use the following online site to compress your image.
    https://tinypng.com/

    Thanks!

    Hi Denzel – nope, still doesn’t work. The original file was 1.5 mb, and TinyPNG shrunk it to 178 kb. Still get the http error. If I switch my theme to some random one installed (2014), I can upload images with no problem. So I think it’s something with the theme – anyone else reporting this?

    Hi Alison,

    Sorry, no other users reporting this issue.
    You can search the recent forum threads.

    Please try disabling one plugin at a time, to find if there is any plugin conflict.

    I just try uploading images to my Alora Theme on my computer.
    No errors at all.

    Thanks!

    I have this same issue. When I switch to the twenty fifteen theme I have no issues at all.

    Hi,

    First of all. Check you error logs for any memory exhaust issue.
    If there is any records of memory exhaust, then it’s confirmed a memory issue.

    Twenty Fifteen theme has a very small file size compared to Alora Theme, and takes up much less memory.

    Try increasing your PHP values to

    max_execution_time 180
    memory_limit 256M
    post_max_size 64M
    upload_max_filesize 64M

    Thanks!
