What happened to the images in my media library?

  • Unknown's avatar

    None of the images in my media library are showing up. I just have white squares.

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

  • Hi there. Do you mean the images on your blog or in the media library on the dashboard itself? I can see the images you’ve inserted in your posts, so they definitely still are in your media library – if they weren’t they wouldn’t appear on your blog.

    Try clearing your browser cache and cookies and also try resetting your modem/router and check if your images become visible for you then: http://en.support.wordpress.com/browser-issues/

    Thank you! Yes, I meant in the actual media library. I’ll try clearing the browser and cookies and resetting the router. Thanks for helping!

  • Let me know if that doesn’t help. As I said, they are appearing in your posts, but you should be able to see them in the library as well.

    I just checked, and now the photos are showing in my media library as well. It was odd, because as I was editing my latest post yesterday, the photos I had already inserted just showed up as empty boxes on the editing screen, but as photos on the blog. So maybe there was just some glitch at either wordpress or my computer. But I’m still going to clear the cache/browser (thanks for the link!), because I’m thinking that if it happened once, it could happen again. And thanks again for taking the time to help! I really appreciate it.

  • Sometimes if the connection is poor images don’t load properly. I use 3G so I experience this a lot. Other times it can be a browser issue, though connection is more often the culprit than browser cache.

    Glad I could help :)
