path problem

[lightplay]

Hi.
I'm very new at this and trying to get the pixelpost installation up.
Here's what I get. I set the CHMOD to 777 but doesn't seem to be working. I cannot upload images at all. All folders show up in \lightplay.ca but... what's the difference between "guessed image path" and "configured". Perhaps I should change something there?

Thanks!

Thanks to the poster who sent me a msg.

Looks like a problem like mine can be solved by simply changing the "configured path" to this line "../images/" (going to "Options" and type the bold text in the "Images Path" box.

Thank you again!

good to hear!

you could also have done a search in the forum postings for this, because
this is one of the most common probs ;=)

now show us your photos!

Thanks Connie.

I am having the same problem? Could you explain how to fix, or tell me who helped you? This is so difficult.

[lightplay]

It's simple, provided that your images directory is CHMOD 777 already.

Go to "Options" and change the "configured path" text to this:

../images/

That's it.
