Image files not appear on site

    I am new to this whole wordpress world. As I am new I thought setting up a sandbox would be the place to try things out. I installed apache, mysql, php, phpmyadmin and wordpress on my local machine, which is running OSX. I installed the Duplicator plugin on the production site and created a package.

    I have downloaded the package and the related installer.php file. I have installed the package. When I navigate to the newly installed site none of the images appear, only placeholders.

    I have changed the permissions for the wordpressdirectory and all sub directories to 777 to rule out permission problem, using the commands:

    cd <path to wordpress site>
    chmod -r 777 ./*

    Still the images do not show.

    And yes I have cleared cache and cookies.

    By looking at the html source in my browser I can see the path to the images. Since this is installed locally I can navigate to the path where the image is located and open it with my browser with no problem.

    Any assistance why they are not properly showing up in the website would be greatly appreciated.

    Both production and local sites are running the following:

    WordPress 4.1.1
    Duplicator 0.5.16

    Thank You.

  • It happened to me too. Just passing to share what worked in my case. It was quite simple

    I went to my uploads folder, in wp-content, right click – file permissions – recurse into subdirectories – apply to all files and directories

    Did it once and 90% of the images showed up. Did it again and now I have everything back

    Thanks @nandoanversa!
