Unable to create directory uploads/2023/05. Is its parent directory writable by the server?

Sometime when we try to upload images or media to website then it shows there this type of message…

Here are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot and resolve the problem:

Most of time this issue occur after move or transfer of wp site to new place or hosting…

One of the main issue is wrong file upload path mentioned in media dashboard.. you can check by visiting Settings > Media ..

Here is your current path to upload media… now goto cpanel/hosting and check there the file path and match with it..

Login to cpanel/hosting to check your upload files path… copy this and replace this with your wp dashboard path as mentioned above … make sure both path address should be same…

Simply you can change path before /public_html/ in between /home/******/public_html/

Like below… i added new path of cpanel…

Now click on Save changes and try to upload file now to media…

By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the issue and create the “uploads/2023/05” etc directory successfully.
