  Hi!

  I’m having trouble getting the photos to display in the front page widgets on my site: onpointwriting.ca (linked from onpointwritingandediting.wordpress.com).

  I am using the Sela theme, and I’ve set it up the same way that the wordpress demo shows. I had the photos working at one point, but now it’s broken and I can’t make the pics appear again.

  Ideas? Many thanks in advance.

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

  Here are the image URLs for the three missing images in the front page widgets, left to right:

  1. http://onpointwriting.ca/2014/09/ks-colour1-e1431987281380.jpg

  2. https://onpointmetalslinky.files.wordpress.com/2015/03/istock_000001030921medium.jpg

  3. https://onpointmetalslinky.files.wordpress.com/2015/03/istock_000018900833medium.jpg.

  Each link produces a 404 error, a broken link. The first image may have been deleted from, or renamed in the media library at http://onpointwriting.ca. The second and third are from another website. If https://onpointmetalslinky.wordpress.com is in the same account as onpointwriting.ca, then the images might appear if the visibility of the former site is not set to private. However, the broken links would result if the images were deleted from, or renamed in the media library of the source.

  Thanks so much! I did rename the original site. It used to be called onpointmetalslinky.wordpress.com, then I changed it onpointwritingandediting.wordpress.com.

  So if I understand properly, that means the name of the files in my media library would have changed (or wouldn’t have changed?) when I renamed the site?

  Thanks for your help!
