Just in case if someone was buffling with the same problem in the future – the problem was image size. The pictures which were not displaying were simply too heavy WordPress allows up to 64mb per file, for me anything more than 6 seems to be too much – but it also seems to have something to do with the hosting. Sorry for the fuss, Scotty thank you again for your help!

I have noticed one more strange thing – I added a css attribute to one of the pictures taken with a phone, not a camera, to see if the origin of the picture matters in any way here – and the css attribute worked fine – the picture became full-width – but it changed, both on the site and in the editor. It’s not the picture which I intially inserted, it’s a copy of the picture directly above it. Where could all of that be potentially coming from? I’ll be extremely grateful for any help!

Hi Scotty!

Thank you very much for your reply! I did not think of inserting the image which didn’t work on a post into the page (silly me, thank you for suggesting that!), I have, however, done it now and here is what I found out:

1. A picture which doesn’t work in a post doesn’t work in a page either;
2. Just re-adding a picture which currently works seems to be working ok – until I change the size of the picture or add a css class;
3. Once a re-added picture is resized or a css class is added, in most of the cases it stops showing on the page and deleting it permanently from the media library and adding it again is not helping;
4. Sometimes, however, everything works as it should (the picture of a lady surrounded with red flags is an example of when it does. The pictures at the beginning of the post which are not showing are an example of when it doesn’t).

I forgot to mention that before, but the pictures at the very end of the post I linked above haven’t been showing to begin with – and that problem has occured in a few other places on the site, including some featured images (if you go to the blog page, these are the entries with grey background instead of a picture). I have noticed that some of my file names begin with _ – could that potentially be causing the problem? (Although the file name of the picture which works begins with _ as well).

Thank you for your help again!

Hello again!

I have asked for help, and then I found a solution somewhere else – I have added .full-width css class to a picture and applied these steps: https://css-tricks.com/full-width-containers-limited-width-parents/

I’m terribly sorry if I wasted anybody’s time and, if you’re reading this, thank you for your willingness to help!

Problem solved, thank you very much!

Yes, that was the issue, I didn’t even think of that! Thank you very much for your help!

(My current setting is fade)

Hello!
Thank you for your quick reply. Yes, I did change the transition once – out of curiosity, but now I can’t change it back, no matter what new setting I choose, the photographs keep sliding.

Hello! I have the same issue, did you manage to solve it somehow? ??
