Title: Issue with image loading Last modified: August 12, 2024 --- # Issue with image loading * Resolved [bas2024](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bas2024/) * (@bas2024) * [1 year, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/issue-with-image-loading/) * Hello, * I am operating a photo-aircraft spotting website. * Since my last WordPress update I got some issue with the loading of the images on my posts. * Some photos are visible in the thumbnail, but most of them are not. However, not a single photo is loading anymore and I don´t know what happened and how I can solve this issue. I have tried the plugin “WP-Rollback” and switched to another older version, but nothing has been changed. * I don´t want to loose my photo archiv with more than 3000 photos, so any help is much appreciated! * Thank you for your help in advance. * Best Regards Sebastian * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fissue-with-image-loading%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US) to see the link]_ Viewing 6 replies - 1 through 6 (of 6 total) * Moderator [James Huff](https://wordpress.org/support/users/macmanx/) * (@macmanx) * [1 year, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/issue-with-image-loading/#post-17948740) * The first thumbnail that doesn’t load is: * ```wp-block-code ``` * Firefox reports 129.0 reports “could not load the image” in inspector, but [http://berlin-aviation-spotting.de/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/1-DDR-STE-500×281.jpg](http://berlin-aviation-spotting.de/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/1-DDR-STE-500x281.jpg) and its other variants do load when accessed directly. * Firefox shows a 403 Access Denied error for each image under the inspector’s Network tab, so something on your end is blocking your own images from being loaded on your own site. * If you’ve employed some sort of hotlink protection, you need to make sure that you have whitelisted your own domain. * Thread Starter [bas2024](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bas2024/) * (@bas2024) * [1 year, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/issue-with-image-loading/#post-17949590) * Thank you for your fast response and the information James. I don´t know exactly what could be the reason for this… * I took a screenshot of my used plugins. Do you think that any of these could be the origin of this issue? * [https://s20.directupload.net/images/240813/du7muyqo.png](https://s20.directupload.net/images/240813/du7muyqo.png) Best RegardsSebastian * Moderator [James Huff](https://wordpress.org/support/users/macmanx/) * (@macmanx) * [1 year, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/issue-with-image-loading/#post-17951099) * I don’t think so, but I’m not familiar with most of them. I recommend looking through their settings. * This is also something that you could have set up in your hosting account’s control panel. * Thread Starter [bas2024](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bas2024/) * (@bas2024) * [1 year, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/issue-with-image-loading/#post-17953709) * Some days ago I had to update my PHP software on the used server and also tried to change my website from HTTP to HTTPS, which I however wasn´t able to configure. Could this also be a reason for my issues? * Moderator [James Huff](https://wordpress.org/support/users/macmanx/) * (@macmanx) * [1 year, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/issue-with-image-loading/#post-17953759) * No, neither of those things block hotlinking. * Thread Starter [bas2024](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bas2024/) * (@bas2024) * [1 year, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/issue-with-image-loading/#post-17953786) * Everything is working again right now! Issue was that during my attempts to change to HTTPS all the media URLs were changed and as my attempts doesn´t worked wordpress was not able to open these links. For that I changed all media URLs back to HTTP with “Better Search Replace” plugin and for now everything is working again. * Anyway, thank you for your help James! - This reply was modified 1 year, 9 months ago by [bas2024](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bas2024/).
