Media files not showing?

    I’m writing a journal and am very interested in your plugin.

    I’ve edited .htaccess using the Apache instructions (using the second option). I moved all my media files on ‘wp-content/uploads’ over to the new private folder ‘wp-content/uploads/private’. Everything appears to be working as it should.

    I’m logged in as the admin but unfortunately, my media files aren’t showing up in the media library online or in the WordPress app. They exist in the media library, but there are no preview thumbnails. Clicking on them shows the correct URL, so I don’t know why I can’t see the previews. I have a feeling they aren’t showing up because the files are no longer where they used to be, but I don’t know how to fix it. The WordPress app just endlessly reloads empty squares. https://imgbox.com/EdXwg6lk

    I used ‘Search and Replace’ to reindex them, but it didn’t do anything. So I restored my database, and here I am. Is there something I’m missing?

    It’s possible that imgbox.com is doing something to the URLs that is breaking things, because the link you gave doesn’t show ‘uploads’ or ‘private’ anywhere in the URLs for the images. That’s out of my control, I’m afraid.
