Marking this as resolved.

My bad, it wasn’t Timber that was creating the pop-up.

I set up a vanilla install with only Timber and WPdatatables installed. Everything was fine. I then realised that on my previous development installation I had the Query Monitor plugin activated. De-activating that plugin eliminated the pop-up.

Thanks for the quick response.

If older images are displaying correctly, then it’s the way new code is inserted that’s causing the problem. So, you’re going to have to bite the bullet and disable all plugins and revert to the default theme. Then try and insert an image into a post and see if it appears, I suspect it will.

Once you’re at that point, re-enable your theme and each of your plugins one by one to see when the problem reappears. I could be your theme itself or maybe a plugin that deals with images. If it’s the theme, you’d be best asking the theme vendor since it’s a commercial theme not supported in here.

I think it may be a Jetpack related issue. Try disabling the Photon module and see if things go back to normal. You’d probably have to re-insert the image again.

The HTML used to display the image is pretty messed up. Try deleting then re-inserting the image. I’ve in-browser edited your site, corrected the error and the image displays fine.

If re-inserting the image doesn’t fix the problem, there may be something about how you’re inserting images that could be failing.

Fair enough. Glad to have helped.

This is from your host’s community site:

When you use Click&Build to set up your WordPress installation, we set configurations and add functionalities to make it easier and safer for you to build your own website.

This is why we sometimes limit functionality – for example, we disable the theme and plugin editors in WordPress for Safe Mode and Free Mode installations.

You can read more on this page:

Enabling the WordPress Theme and Plugin Editor

Having pointed out that URL, it’s my firmly held opinion that you should only live edit files on a server as an absolute last resort. You’re much better off taking a backup of the file and editing it locally before returning the file to your site.

You found the link as I was typing ??

If you download the plugin zip file from here, look in the assets directory, the images are not there. I suspect they are present on existing sites but they must have been removed from the zip file at some stage?

It’s your sharedaddy plugin provided by Jetpack. Here’s a post where someone had similar problems:

From @alchymyth

caused by the ‘sharedaddy’ css ‘https://www.aihcp.org/blog/wp-content/plugins/jetpack/modules/sharedaddy/sharing.css’

there seem to be few ‘clear: both;’ styles too many in the stylesheet of the plugin which interfere with your theme.

I encountered a similar problem. I install most plugins via wp-cli. I found that wp-cli’s cached copy was versioned at 3.1.0 so that’s the file that my WordPress installation was installing. In fact the version here at www.ads-software.com and on Github, although identically versioned, were different.

Downloading from here or Github and manually installing the plugin solved the problem. Also, uninstalling the plugin, removing any mailjet-for-wordpress files from wp-cli’s cache and then installing via wp-cli pulls in the correct version.

You need to access your site via FTP or your hosts panel software. Both should be available to you at 123. Once there you can delete the offending plugin.

A good FTP client is FileZilla

If you want to remove only some of those links, it looks like you’ll need to do some custom coding in your theme/child theme. Unfortunately since it’s a commercial theme, no-one here has access to the source files to advise you. You could ask at your vendor’s support site here:

If you want to remove them all, you could hide the link by using display: none; in your child theme stylesheet or custom CSS plugin:

.simple-read-more {
    display: none;
}

I personally don’t like that method but it’s a quick and easy solution already in use on the parent element.

If your hosts have indeed disabled the mail() function, you could try bypassing it yourself by using one of the several available SMTP plugins. That way you can send your mail through your own email account:

You need to provide a site URL so we can see the problem live.

That looks like bbcode. There are a few plugins that may deal with that problem:
