Images not appearing in Facebook or Twitter links

Hi there,

https://www.prepress-projects.co.uk/wp-content/blogs.dir/1/files/2017/09/IMG_1873.jpg is not there and is returning a 404 error

Hi Marco

The link works fine for me. Could you check again?

Nop… Redirect 302 to a 404 page:

Hi Marco

Thanks for getting back to me. I’ve found the problem (an overzealous .htaccess rule preventing direct access to image files) and it looks like the photo is coming through to Facebook now. Many thanks for your help!

Thanks for pointing out that it was a 302 redirect: that put me on the right path.
