    Question Head image not uploading (getting this message)

    I've tried searching the forum but I have not been able to find any information as to why the image header will not upload. When I choose my image header and then click save I get a question mark and a message that reads

    Warning: opendir(../wp-content/themes/socrates/header-images/uploads) [function.opendir]: failed to open dir: No such file or directory in /home/mlh10/public_html/websitename.net/wp-content/themes/socrates-6/functions/panel/themeoptions.php on line 1158

    Thanks for any help

    Your installation of Socrates is in a folder called socrates-6 instead of just socrates. You need to rename the folder or delete and reinstall.

    I"m having this exact same issue. Can you direct me to where to go to rename or delete the folder? Would I just delete my zip file in finder and re-download socrates?

    You can rename the folder using FTP or the file manager in your hosting control panel. If you want to delete and re-install you can delete in the WordPress dashboard by activating another theme and then deleting the socrates installation. Then re-install socrates.

    Hi,

    I have the same message. I proceeded to go into the cpanel/ file manager, and I cannot find any file named socrates-6. The only one I find is just a regular socrates folder. I have tried uninstalling and re-installing and still get the same message. How should I proceed?

    THanks

    I'm not sure if it is a case sensitivity issue or not. My socrates directory on all my sites is all lower case. Yours has a capital S. Try renaming the theme directory from Socrates to socrates.
