Error Message

“filename.pdf” has failed to upload.
Unable to create directory uploads/2025/03. Is its parent directory writable by the server?

Unable to upload images/docs via wp-admin. I can create/edit posts and pages. Didn’t install wordpress but copied previous installation using ftp - could this be contributing

FIXED: found a link suggesting editing wp-config.php

add the following code:
define( ‘UPLOADS’, ‘wp-content/uploads’ );
before this line:
require_once(ABSPATH . ‘wp-settings.php’);
