Photos disappearing
-
Randomly photos from my WordPress are disappearing and leaving behind a small white square like the file Is missing. I keep reading the pictures and they stay for a few hours and disappear again. This is for a graded assignment and this is really irritating
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi,
I had a look at your site and all your pictures seem to work just fine, can you be a bit more specific about the posts or pages concerned?
-
Under the concept implementation page, i know it’s hard to tell but look for small black outlined squares after a picture. I just checked again and there’s about 8 photos missing

Did you happen to delete the missing images from your media library?
Images you upload into your media library and embed into posts and pages are on WordPress.com servers. They remain visible unless or until you delete them from your media library. Doing that removes them from every place you embedded them in the blog and leaves behind broken links.

No didnt, all the photos I used are dragged on from a folder on my desktop, is this maybe the problem? Should i upload them to the library instead?

Images you upload into your media library and embed into posts and pages are on wordpress.COM servers. They remain visible unless or until you delete them from your media library. Deleting them from your media library also removes them from every place you embedded them in the blog and leaves behind broken links.
Staff cannot restore images you delete from your Media Library. You have to upload them all again and then fix every broken image link in every post/page it was embedded into previously.

Hey @dollypod,
I also see all of the images on that page just fine. Are you still having trouble?
If so, can you please provide the URL of the image that is not showing up on your end?
Thanks!

Look at this photo: https://imgur.com/R6zcIUs
The little green squares are pictures that should be there but arent showing up. Do you know what the problem might be?
Thanks

Okay, I see what you are saying.I would try re-uploading those pictures via the media library and see if you get a different result. Let me know if that works.
Thanks!

I added them library, so we’ll see how it goes – usually takes a few hours until the pictures disappear
Thanks for the help!
