Media URLs not rewriting after site migration

    I copied my site from an Apache server to an nginx server today.

    I set my local hosts file to point to my new server to make sure everything was working correctly.

    I noticed that media file URLs aren’t getting rewritten, resulting in broken images in the front-end. However, when I go into my Media Library on my new site, all my images are appearing as expected from my S3 bucket.

    I have object versioning turned on for both the sites running on the Apache and nginx servers

    My old site was inside a WordPress Multisite install; for the nginx server, I migrated it to a single site install. In order to keep my S3 bucket as it was and not have to migrate over all the paths and object versioning folder names, I set my Uploads path to the original path on the Multisite, which is “wp-content/uploads/sites/41/”

    Other than removing the “wp_41_” from my table prefixes, both databases are the same. Everything seems to be working as expected on my new site except for the Media URLs

    Update:

    My old site was using a lower version of the plugin.

    I downgraded the plugin on the new site, then reimported my database. Then, I updated the plugin to the latest version.

    This appeared to solve my problem.

    Hope this helps someone in the future!
