Image URL is very strange

  • I have recently found something very strange. If I right click on an image on my sites to copy image url I get something like blob:http%3A//www.domain.com/4d4603a6-2671-4357-b20d-883b4b2d98ce.

    If I right click and select open image I get a bunch of gobbledygook, but on my domain. Same on several sites, but not all. In some cases I see the image with a url like that and in some I don’t.

    If I go to my media I can find the image with a proper image url.

    Anyone any ideas what this is? I don’t recall this before.

    Thanks
    Peter

  • does that url end with .jpg?
    it seems the img url is replaced by some random hash.

    Please try this and check if the issue persists:
    * disable all plugins
    * enable the default WP theme (twentyfourteen)

    It’s also possible that you have malicious injects somewhere on your site.

    Well this is very strange. I disabled plugins, changed theme and the url’s were correct.

    But when I changed back to the theme I was using and reenabled plugins the urls were also correct. And as I mentioned it was happening on 2 sites and when I looked at the second, without changing anything, the urls were correct.

    Ran a malware scan and came up with nothing.

    The theme is a paid Woo theme, their most popular one so I doubt it’s the theme.

    The urls were exactly as I pasted above, no .jpg and in some case they showed the image and in some cases they didn’t, just a whole bunch of gobbledegook.

    I have no ideas. Totally stumped, but all seems ok now. Hmmm.
