Pictures Disappearing

BOMrsxS · 07-03-2018, 07:40 PM

All of the pictures I have loaded in my for sale threads are gone. I last logged in Sunday afternoon and they were all there. Did something happen since?

Hi there. I looked at your for sale threads and it looks like the issue is the URL of the images that you've posted. With the SSL conversion that we've done on the site, we have encountered issues with some linked images: basically any images with http (not https) will not show up when using certain browsers to access the forum. The techs are looking into this so we can get broken images and URL's corrected. Apologies for the inconvenience.

Cheers,

Erik

Ok I see. So is this something that will get rectified or should I just take and post new pictures?

Awesome, thanks for the quick response.

Hi there,

Just make sure that the image hosting site that you're uploading your images has "HTTPS"
Otherwise, the images will not show up on the forum.

Thank you, Ed. I will check that out.

Hi there,

Just wanted to follow up on this.
How did it go? What was the verdict?

If anyone else encounters this:

Many modern browsers won't allow mixed secure and insecure content on the same page (it can enable some exploits), so if the page URL begins with https then any embedded resources such as images won't load if the embedded resource's URL starts with http. It may be as easy to fix as editing the post to change all the http to https in the image URLs in the post.
