    Hi,

    In some sites there is suddenly the problem that pictures are no longer found by the system. Not in the media library and not in the frontend.
    The paths are correct, but 404’s on all pictures nevertheless.

    When I delete this line of code from .htaccess

    RewriteRule ^(.+.(?:jpe?g|gif|png)) /wp-content/plugins/wp-retina-2x/wr2x_image.php [QSA,L]

    the pictures are found again, but I presume that WP-retina is no longer working then and thus useless.

    What can be the problem here?

    Hello Erwin,

    To be honest, I didn’t have a look at this method (Retina-Images) for a long long while, nobody is using it. The other methods don’t work for you ?

    I have a similar problem. Didn’t dig too deep. I’m on nginx though.

    Guys, if you switch to the Retina.js method, everything works fine? Just to make sure that the retina files actually exists.

    Hi Jordy,

    I don’t care which method I’ll be using, as long as it works. This website is an old one, and I think the Retina-Images method was the default method in those days. I’ve never really set a method consciously to be honest.
    The line of code in the .htaccess file is added by choosing the Retina-Images method? If so, I can choose another method and delete this line of code?
    When I use Picturefill the images are being shown. So problem solved?

    That was a really long time ago ?? Yes, around 2-3 years ago I think it was the default method. You can remove this line from your .htaccess and use PictureFill method instead and the problem is solved ??
