Problems seeing images in fullview…
-
I recently uploaded some pictures into a post. They show up fine and can be seen from where ever, but when I click on two of the four photos it redirects it to the page that i’m on (Home page) instead of sending me to it’s full view page which has its description. The other two work fine though. I don’t understand what went wrong or if this is just how it is suppose to be. Can someone help me understand why this is happening?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

They redirect to your latest post, not your homepage. It’s happening because of the names of the image files you have uploaded.
The URL of a gallery attachment page has this form: POST URL – slash – IMAGE NAME. Images 3 and 4 in your latest post are named “page 7” and “page 2” respectively, so the URLs of their att. pages become POST URL – slash – page N, which happens to be the form of the URLs you get when you’ve split a post into a series of numbered pages using the nextpage tag. Since your post doesn’t have such a series of pages, PAGE N is invalid, so all that remains is the URL of the post.
You need to delete the images from your Media Library and re-upload them to the post after you rename the files you’ve got in your computer (for instance, turn “page 2” to “2nd page” or “page 2 scan” or whatever – anything except “page N”).
In general, avoid names that end with a number, because you may run into other problems too. When you re-upload an image without having renamed it, it gets an extra number so that the system can tell the one copy from the other (“nicepic” reuploaded will become “nicepic1”, if you re-upload it again it will become “nicepic2” etc.); so “pic2” re-uploaded will become “pic21” and get mixed up with an actual “pic21” you may have also uploaded (if they’ve both been uploaded the same month).
