WordPress, Image Upload Problem and 1and1.com Hosting…

… Thank you Mr. Reid Walley!
I’ve been getting some problems and / off since getting the blogging platform WordPress up. WordPress would give me intermittent errors when uploading pictures. And the problem is that it wouldn’t be consistent. The smaller the picture (resolution wise) the more likely it would take, but even for multiple pictures of the exact same resolution, I’d run into some having problems and some others not!
This is a known issue with WordPress to which there is no consistent answer. After putzing around with different plug-ins and edits to the “.htaccess” file I decided to dog some searching for solutions specific to 1and1.com, andI ran into the following, by Mr. Reid Walley.
I completely replaced the contents of the .htaccess file (to keep my life simple) with the following…
AddType x-mapp-php5 .php
AddHandler x-mapp-php5 .php
… and voilà! Fixed! Working with WordPress v2.8.1
Thank you Sir!
