A Test of WordPress 2.5

The irony of me spending 2 days trying to figure out multiple uploads is that if I had been willing to read the info on the latest upgrade I would have seen it was part of the package…. sheesh!

ImageMagick

Reinstalled ImageMagick to facilitate image uploads using these instructions. So far so good. Now I will attempt to use a plugin to manage the images:
ImageManager 2.0 to start… nope
Flexible Upload… nope
Batch Image Upload… nope
Multifile Upload… nope

hmmmmm, not quite there yet…

Seems I should have gone the hard way an installed GD rather than Image Magick. I think I can get Flexible Upload to work for me if I don’t use the resize feature…

Yah, multiple upload but no resizing…

Hmmm, I’ve got Image Manager working now. Just had to find the install of ImageMagick which was in /usr/local/bin But no multiple image upload AFAIK…

I am trying to get GD to work (using these instructions) but i think I may have multiple php installs on the stupid box since I have upgraded it so many times… …
