  Hi,
  My header image has disappeared. Could it be a glitch in the theme?
  The website Theme: Book Lite

  I have been using wordpress for a while and never had any issues. Now I’m kind of regretting it that I recently purchased a domain. I use my site to display my work and the disappeared image makes the site look sloppy or under construction. By the way, I still have the image in my media library.
  Would appreciate your help. Thanks!

  This site is wearing the Ryu theme. https://theme.wordpress.com/themes/ryu/ It is not waring the Book Lite theme. https://wordpress.com/themes/book-lite

  In Book Lite this apples:

  Featured Header Images
  If a featured image is assigned to a page or post, the image will appear as a background to the header (in place of the custom header, if one is set).

  Custom Header works best with an image at least 1440 wide and 500 tall.

  When I typed “this site” above I was referring to http://posthaltelei.wordpress.com/ which is linked to your username.

  Note this please. On this site http://anaprundaru.com/ when I click to view the image I get this result https://posthaltelei.files.wordpress.com/2015/05/five-dancers.jpg.

  You cannot hotlink to images in your other blog at http://posthaltelei.wordpress.com/ You need to upload the header image into your http://anaprundaru.com/ blog.

  It’s odd because the media library contains the image in question. Is there another place I have to add it to? Essentially, my new site is the same as the posthaltelei.wordpress.com – I only changed the name, so I supposed the two sites have been merged. Initially the header image was there so I was surprised to see it disappeared. Thanks for the quick help. I will see if I can figure it out.

  what solved the issue was simply re-adding / uploading the image again. I hope it stays for good now :)
