CMS Made Simple Forums

Hi, I had this weird issue with one of my pages, it just stopped displaying some images on it for some weird reason. It's using the same template as all my other pages, how could something like this happen? I am using version 1.9.2, I haven't done any updates or anything like that lately.... now, in order to fix this issue, I just added a forward-slash in front of the uploads like such; /uploads/images/etc etc

Has anything like this ever happened to anyone, and did you figure out why? this is really random, and no I am worried that this could happen with any other pages on my site at any time... or even worst with some of my customers sites...

Thanks

Do a 'View Source' and see what path it references.. If it looks correct and hasn't been altered, it's not an issue with CMSMS.

Thanks for your response... but I want to know is why some image paths are written 'with' and some 'without' the forward-slash "/" on the same page and still work... is this possible that both of these methods work?

Example:

/uploads/images/etc

uploads/images/etc

Can you give an example page for us to look at?

You will see some images are pulling with /uploads/...etc
and others are pulling with uploads/...etc

Hmm.. I see many references to uploads/images, and two using /uploads/images .. I see them all in my browser.. No missing images.

The first example is saying "find this item relative to the root directory" the second "find this item relative to the current directory".

If the current directory is the root directory then it's the same thing and both will work.

Thank you all for your responses... but something weird is going on... for example last week I added an image a blog article on my site and today I checked it and the image is not showing up!!! take a look please:

If it was working fine last week when I added it... and a few days later it just disappears..!!! I haven't even logged into my cmsms... any suggestions

My concern is that images will just start randomly disappearing without any warning... which is what's happening now

Thank you everyone

You have {metadata showbase="false"} which will stop the <base href= from showing up so when the image says uploads/images/blog/blog-image01.jpg it has no starting point...

You are the .CSS { KING: PIN }

Thanks Dr.!
