Uploaded Images No Longer Displaying

  • I have been running my site for about a year and just recently (for several weeks now), the images are not displaying on my site. They were all showing properly and all of a sudden stopped. The only ones that show are ones that are routed from websites, but images uploaded from my computer to my media library are not showing.

    Where there were images, there is nothing now (not a broken link icon, not a black outline, etc.). The only exception to this is my header which, in place of the image, displays the name of the file.

    I am running the most recent version of WordPress, the theme I use is Cutline and my host is Dreamhost. I checked the images in my ftp and they are where they belong. I checked the “settings>media/miscellaneous” in wordpress and the correct file is listed in “Store uploads in this folder” (“Full URL path to files” is blank and “Organize my uploads into month- and year-based folders” is checked). I checked the site on both Firefox and Internet Explorer and it looks the same on either browser.

    The website is https://ArtFeedOnline.com

    Any feedback or suggestions are appreciated!!! I’m now officially done with anything I know how to do!

    This is all that came up when I opened .htaccess from my ftp:

    # BEGIN WordPress
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
    </IfModule>

    # END WordPress

    I have no idea what this means…
    Would it also help to copy the file from my hard drive, since it is dated differently?

    The .htaccess looks fine. Now must ask one last time:

    Did you ftp an image from the web server to your local computer? Then look at it in Paint, GIMP or what ever graphic program you use.

    Sorry, haven’t been ignoring that question. I have been trying to do that step as well! The wrong program keeps automatically opening the file (Is there a way to change which program opens from the server?)

    Clicking “open,” whether from the server or hard drive, brings up Nero PhotoSnap Viewer which says File Could Not Be Opened. When I click “Open With” and “Add Programs,” it brings me to page that has two boxes (extensions, which contains jpeg and *.* and programs, which doesn’t contain anything).

    Can you see in Windows Explorer what is the file size?

    One I tried opening was 6kb and another was 826kb…

    Do you have backups of these images? If so, Have you tried uploading even a couple and see if that fixes the issue? If you do not have backups, just take any old FUNCIONING image file, give it the same name as one on the site and see if it comes up.

    I have the files but they were renamed when they were put into the server, so I don’t know which images on my hard drive are which images on the server.

    I’m not sure what you mean by “old FUNCIONING image file, give it the same name as one on the site and see if it comes up” They were all functioning at one point and now the only ones that are functioning are images that aren’t on the hard drive/server but are pulled from websites. Can you clarify what you mean? (sorry, this whole situation is confusing for a beginner!)

    Take ANY image file that works on your own computer. Could be of a car, person, your parents, kids or your house plant. ANYTHING. Then Rename it that file the same as one of the images on a web page. Then ftp it to the uploads directory the image ON THE WEB SITE where the current file exists. Then see if that image shows up on your website.
    Hope that makes sense.

    Yes, that definitely makes sense, thank you.
    I did try this and there were no changes to the site…

    At this point would have to look at the site’s file system myself. Otherwise have no suggestions. Thought that would work.
    If interested in letting me in, get a hold of me when I am online. If you see my Live Support is Online I am probably on and get me through that.

    I’ve just created a brand new site:
    https://lightroom.mueses.com

    None of the images are showing. Not on the Dashboard nor the website itself.
    Default theme does not show images either.

    Any help?

    emueses: That is a different issue. Why don’t you start a new topic for it? In your case the images are there, working and accessible. so something else going on.
