Images have disappeared

  • Unknown's avatar

    When I first created my blog, I included pictures along the side, and although all of my personal photos have remained, some of the captioned photos have disappeared, and there is just a little box with a question mark in it. How do I get those images to reappear? Where did they go? Do I have to upload the images all over again? Thanks for your help.

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  • Can you show me an example of a page where you are seeing this? Did you delete the images out of your media library?

    Yeah, it’s actually right on my main page. When you go to my site, I have contact info and personal profile pics on the right side. Underneath that, I have production shots from productions I have directed, with captions above. Lately, there is just an empty box where the picture should be, with a tiny little box with an “x” in it. I haven’t erased those pics from my library, so I’m wondering where they went. Just so you know, you only see this side bar on the computer, and has never popped up in the mobile app.

    Here is the link to my site’s main page:

  • The images you are linking to do not seem to be in the location where they previously were. For example, “Macduff, after he has killed Macbeth “:

    So I’m having trouble putting my pictures back on there. The site I had been pulling the pictures from has changed, and I can no longer find them. However, I have all the J-Pegs myself. Does it have to have a URL address? Is there no way I can just upload the image and post it in the sidebar?

    If you have the images then you need to upload them to your Media Library. Then you can easily get the URL from there to place the images back in the appropriate sidebar widgets. Image widget instructions are here:-
