This thread is cancelled – have abandoned Posts-in-page for a better solution.

I restored a previous back up (WP 4.3) and the problem still persist. I have spent too much time and given up. I will delete all images that don’t show and reinstall some of them. This item is NOT resolved, but is closed.

All the image are in the gallery directory, but …
Example for NextGen Gallery Images that won’t show:

The link on the webpage is:
/wp-content/gallery/2014-breakfast-fly-in/IMG_5064.jpg

The actual files:
thumbs sub-directory: /wp-content/gallery/2014-breakfast-fly-in/thumbs/thumbs_IMG_5064.jpg
dynamic sub-directory: /wp-content/gallery/2014-breakfast-fly-in/dynamic/IMG_5064-nggid03378-ngg0dyn-91×68-00f0w010c011r110f110r010t010.jpg
or
/wp-content/gallery/2014-breakfast-fly-in/dynamic/IMG_5064.jpg-nggid03378-ngg0dyn-91×68-00f0w010c011r110f110r010t010.jpg

Take your pick? Other pictures with thumbnails don’t have any “dynamic” files for the “2014-breakfast-fly-in” folder. No wonder there is a disconnect!

Example for an image in a page that won’t show and were uploaded through Media Library:

Link on webpage is:
/wordpress/?attachment_id=20

The actual file is located at:
/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/UpAndAway.jpg

I have no way of telling whether this indirect link refers to the real file. Nonetheless, the image does not show in the Media Library – only a blank square

My conclusion is that the gallery directory got corrupted, perhaps from the loss and reinstall of NextGen. I have no idea why the page image fails.

I also discovered that all my original plugins are still there, WordPress just lost any connection to them, so I had to reinstall.

I think full repair of this site is a lost cause.
