WP 2.5: Uploading Pics

[trigatch4]

Not sure if WP 2.5 does this by default...

When you are uploading a pic in a post/page and you provide the URL instead of a file on your local computer, does it upload it to your own site or hotlink it?

I've been looking for a WP solution that would save me the tedious process of saving to my computer and then browsing for it.

Anybody?

Image uploading hasn't worked for me since I upgraded to 2.5, so I really couldn't say.

If image uploading isn't working in 2.5 it's usually because of your mod_security.c module. Create a .htaccess in /wp-admin/ and put this in it:

<IfModule mod_security.c>
<files async-upload.php>
SecFilterEngine Off
SecFilterScanPOST Off
</files>
</IfModule>
