[Plugin: W3 Total Cache] Image urls don't get rewritten when using CDN

    I’ve installed W3 Total Cache, and have configured a self hosted CDN.

    The media library has been successfully uploaded to the CDN server. However, there’s a problem with the replacing of URLs of attachments. The urls only get replaced with the domain name of the CDN server I have configured, but nothing else.

    So on every page images are: <img src="https://static.example.com" alt="attachment name" /> etc.

    Does anybody have any experience with this?

  • Try this

    Plugin Name: CDN Linker lite
    Plugin URI: https://github.com/wmark/CDN-Linker

    That was a strange problem. Did you solve it, find a solution?
    If not did you file a bug report from the Support page in the plugin?

    Yes I did manage to solve it.

    Turned out this occurs only when you the directory for uploads is configured as a relative path. So in the field “Store uploads in this folder” in Settings > Media, if you have a relative path there, W3 won’t change the URL’s to a CDN location.

    When I changed that, the CDN function worked like a charm.
