Most images not showing, old source domainlinks

    Hi,
    I have a fresh WordPress installation (theme 2021, Gutenberg editor) and imported posts with images. All images are in the media library, linked to the post so that looks good.

    But most images do not show, their source is the original website (which is still live), after checking with inspector tool.

    E.g. look at the image gallery at the end of original post and this is: the exported post

    I tried: saving permalinks, switch themes 2020/2021, look with incognito browser and different browsers. Replace url tool (elementor). Checked WordPress media settings (both sites default 150 / 300 / 1024).

    The only I can think of is that the images have different sizes because they are scale/rendered. E.g. on the original site there is a
    1024 image But the image shown is 238×179 renderd from the file …..IMG_1646-1536×1153.jpg

    What do you think about my problem and what you advise?
    If I can get this to work, I can import more blog posts, this is a first step.

    Regards, Myra

  • Hi Myra

    I had a similar situation recently and running the regenerate thumbnails plugin resolved it. If that fails I would look at the image sizes and add these sizes to the new theme, then try running regenerate thumbnails plugin again.

    Hi Kieran,
    that didn’t work for me but I found a great solution. The plugin ‘Auto upload images’ and after that ‘export featured images’. Steps are described in this article.
