My journey starts in Press This on a wordpress.com site. I want to upload an image and a video. I upload both seemingly successfully, but only the image inserts. I go back into the media modal, and see this…
#gallery-25 {
margin: auto;
}
#gallery-25 .gallery-item {
float: left;
margin-top: 10px;
text-align: center;
width: 33%;
}
#gallery-25 img {
border: 2px solid #cfcfcf;
}
#gallery-25 .gallery-caption {
margin-left: 0;
}
/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes/media.php */
-
- Despite only one upload attempt, there are three videos. Tap them each in turn.
-
- I didn’t see this error during upload and insertion.
-
- HTTP error

- HTTP error
Notice also that the progress indicator is stuck and that scroll bleed is evident.
#gallery-26 {
margin: auto;
}
#gallery-26 .gallery-item {
float: left;
margin-top: 10px;
text-align: center;
width: 33%;
}
#gallery-26 img {
border: 2px solid #cfcfcf;
}
#gallery-26 .gallery-caption {
margin-left: 0;
}
/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes/media.php */
Maybe this is a wordpress.com specific problem. Let’s try a self-hosted site on Bluehost.
#gallery-27 {
margin: auto;
}
#gallery-27 .gallery-item {
float: left;
margin-top: 10px;
text-align: center;
width: 33%;
}
#gallery-27 img {
border: 2px solid #cfcfcf;
}
#gallery-27 .gallery-caption {
margin-left: 0;
}
/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes/media.php */

- The movie inserts as an IMG_4729 link.
-
- That is empty.
That’s a different error than on wordpress.com, but the effect is the same. I can’t insert a video.
Maybe this is an iOS problem. Next, let’s try desktop with Macos and Chrome.
Broken on desktop too.
Video insertion is broken on Macnchrome as well. The video does upload correctly. I can download it from this link and play it back.
Attachment page showing link to video.
WordPress* mobile web failure.
