CMS Made Simple Forums

Hei everyone who can help me.

I have been working with this cms for several weeks now, and I am beginning to understand the concept.

SUPER working tools 

But suddely after uploading a new picture all my grafic is gone 

I am normaly working with Firefox, and this is where the problem is. NOT in Internet Explorer.

Help me someone, what do I do?

Regards Lena

do you have {metadata} tag in the head section of your template?

What do you mean precisely?

Are the images:
not showing up on the live website's http pages?
not showing up in image manager?
not showing up via FTP when you browse to the directory?
not showing up when you go to a direct address for the image?

possible solutions without knowing more:
1. Permissions are set improperly (Read is not granted to the images)
2. Files have been deleted
3. The link paths are broken (so the link maybe should be, img src="uploads/images/filename.jpg" but instead it is img src="images/filename.jpg", for instance)

There are other possibilities too.
Please answer each question & we can help you.

not showing up on the live website's http pages?
No problem with that.


not showing up in image manager?
I can´t see any of my pictures. Not in filemanager or in picture manager. I can´t even see the icons that is following the CMS made simple grafik. The only thing that I can se is the written text.

not showing up via FTP when you browse to the directory?
I can´t even see the templates through my browser, because there are no grafic to show the bottoms to preview Sorry the first answer was wrong understod by me. Yes, there are no problems with seing the pictures through my FTP.

not showing up when you go to a direct address for the image?
I can´t even get that far. There are just the name of the pictures, and taht is it. It is not possible to click the pictures name to see the picture.

do you have {metadata} tag in the head section of your template?

I already have several different templates. Shall I check them all?  Sorry this question, but I am not so good at understanding this kind of English

Hi Lena,


you should add {metadata} to every template

Regards

Hi Lena,

please provide a link to your website. I believe that you should try adding {metadata} to all your templates, but your replies make it sound unlikely that this will fix the issue. (Although your original post makes it sound likely) I understand the following from your replies:

1. Images DO appear on the website
2. All the images are broken in the ADMIN section of your webiste (http://www.yourwebsite.domain/admin/ section). This includes filemanager/imagemanager.

These are the things I still need to know:
1. Have you attempted to view the images via FTP? Do you understand what is FTP? (File transfer protocol)


Here is what I currently think will solve your problem, based on your answers, and knowing that there are still unknown variables:

1. Permissions. The folders that the images are in should be set to 777. Do you know how to set permissions?
2. Path issue in your config.php file. do you know what this is? Where it is?  How to reach it?
3. Lack of an image library in PHP to create thumbnails (unlikely)

I believe it's one of the first two.

Here is how we can ensure that this is solved easily & quickly:

1. Post a template from one of the pages of your site. It doesn't matter which template. By template, I mean the content under "Layout" "Templates".
2. Give us a link to the live portion of the site which is publically viewable. (Ex. "http://www.yoursitename.com")

I hope that helps Lena. Thank you.

Wauv... you are really nice to explain these things to some one like me 

Ok. First I have a correction!

"not showing up via FTP when you browse to the directory?
I can´t even see the templates through my browser, because there are no grafic to show the bottoms to preview Sorry the first answer was wrong understod by me. Yes, there are no problems with seing the pictures through my FTP."

My link: www.globalwebdesign.dk

Second: l´ll studie my metadata, and learn more about them. Thank you so much!

Thanks for the help until now

Lena

This is how it looks in Firefox
Print screen is attached.

Thank you so much for all your input and good ideas.

The problem is solved now.

For some unknown reason all images from globalwebdesign.dk were bloked in my browser - removing it from the blocking list solved it all.

So every body thank you so much for being patient with my bad english.

Lena

Hi Lena,

no problem I was just about to post that suggestion.

It looked like Internet Explorer was blocking them for security reasons.

Best luck in the future!
