Featured Image shown as broken link
-
I am having the same issue faced by a few others. That the image is shown as a broken link in media library and file size is 0 byte.
I am using bluehost and when I created another wordpress site without any plugin, I am still having the same issue.
It could be related to server configuration but the bluehost specialist said they could not find any issues with the server.
Any suggestion? I am even thinking about migrating the domain to media temple and see if it helps.
The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

@soma2000: as a moderator, it IS Jan’s business.
@jdembowski: I have NO interest in logging into anyone’s site. I suggested a screen share so I could see soma2000’s issue and help show where to stick some print statements for troubleshooting.
Is that not permitted?
This issue is resolved.
Please stay tuned for an update to the plugin.
For those that may come across a similar in the future.
The plugin was previously using
file_get_contents()to retrieve the raw image data.This was causing an error on some servers…
Warning: file_get_contents(): https:// wrapper is disabled in the server configuration by allow_url_fopen=0 in
By calling
wp_remote_get()instead, the file contents are successfully retrieved.This has the added benefit of being able to trap for wp_is_error and that oh-so-fresh feeling of using native WP functions.
