Image links gone …

What is your site URL? Without seeing what you see nobody can suggest anything.

Hey Rob

If I’m not mistaken there was a note about not linking when I posted. Anyways

Front: East West Army

Article: Flight Jackets

Products: Gear

When troubleshooting coding problems it’s best to first Validate the code that is there to see what is going on.

https://validator.w3.or/ is your friend for this.

Using it shows there are many problem to dealt with. Three repeating errors I see are:

Problems with characters: NU?
It’s fine to use these type characters in text but not in URLs or other type coding.
Rename any images or files or ask your Hoster about this. There are ways at the server level to overcome this problem.

Outdated Code
<script type=
<style type=

These are no longer used and although most times will be a Warning notice, they turn into an Error notice when used like this:
<script type=”cf7ec43bf052b9ffb0a0897d-text/javascript”

You can remove all instances of ‘type=’ using this Plugin:

Incorrect Code
<span><h1 class=”hero-title”>

As H level tags cannot be placed in a <span> tag, all instances have to be recoded

And I still haven’t got to your stated problem because I don’t know what to look for. On the Home page, I think you’re talking about images not showing above the H.W.U. image/link but not sure. Can you describe the steps to take to see the problem?

Thx Rob

I will look into this.

Meanwhile, I’m beginning to suspect my CDN integration.

It’s a generic problem with images and maybe they are simply not mirrored to the CDN. I know for a fact the CDN is complaining about PHP version….

Little known fact that with the advent of HTTP/2 (which your Hoster is providing) one does not need to use CDN. The presumed speed increase people use CDN for is no longer needed if using HTTP/2 as it provides a much faster download. Many people will find some known and unknown problems suddenly “go away” when the start serving images from their own website.

Interesting. I was not aware of that. Is there a simple way to disconnect CDN as a test? Switch nameservers back to host I assume…

I have switched back to own server. I will check the next 24 hours but not yet solved though

“If I’m not mistaken there was a note about not linking when I posted.”

The note you mention probably referred to when URLs are posted to these Forums they will not be removed except for legal or personal identifying information is included.

Also note that for some, using a CDN for International sites may argued as a good thing. There have always been Pro’s & Con’s to using a CDN. My personal thinking is that whenever anything is to given to a 3rd party site (such as images or information) one can never know for sure, the respect they will be given. It’s a security issue for me.

A Plugin you might want to try is: Type Attribute Warnings Removal By Sumit Malviya, to help clean some of your HTML code/errors.

I think this is not it. All images are still gone. I checked .htaccess and find nothing there.

My site is forced onto an older PHP. I don’t know why and by what.
My host says latest PHP is supported, but my site insist on running the old
Plugins complain that my PHP is too old.

Can this be the theme?

Backend edit images seems to be right. They display and all. Even after deleting and adding again, they still do not appear in frontend….
