# [NSFW] path difference in uploads folder?

 * The homepage of my blog displays all content correctly. However, when I view 
   the permalink version of individual posts, images fail to load. For whatever 
   reason, WordPress is appending the path to the uploads folder after the permalink.
 * Correct Image URL: [http://domain.com/blog_folder/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/file.jpg](http://domain.com/blog_folder/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/file.jpg)
 * Where the individual post is trying to call the image from: [http://domain.com/blog_folder/2013/01/16/post-name/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/file.jpg](http://domain.com/blog_folder/2013/01/16/post-name/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/file.jpg)
 * Any suggestions on where I can fix this so it uses the correct path? Any idea
   why the individual post page would be looking in a different place than the blog
   index?
 * Thanks!

 * Can you post a real sample, like the actual url?
    It could be your theme, try
   switching to the 2012 theme to test.

 * Sure — first link is a bit NSFW.

 * Ok,
    so on the home page you have images with their source set to : `wp-content/
   uploads/2013/01/ELIZABETH-RENSTROM_1581.jpg` and on the sub pages such as this:
   [http://cameraclubny.org/ccny_blog/2012/12/17/happy-holidays/](http://cameraclubny.org/ccny_blog/2012/12/17/happy-holidays/)
   the image source is set to: `wp-content/uploads/2012/12/IMG_7782-copy.jpg` So
   the images are always coming with the same path. you must then have an error 
   in your system set up. My guess is that you have the WordPress installed in the
   folder [http://cameraclubny.org/ccny_blog](http://cameraclubny.org/ccny_blog)
   but you probably have your WordPress Address (URL) and Site Address (URL) set
   incorrectly. In your case they should both be set to: [http://cameraclubny.org/ccny_blog](http://cameraclubny.org/ccny_blog)

 * If this is not the case, and the change does not fix your issue, try switching
   to theme 2012 and test. If issue is fixed, then your theme is the problem. Most
   would normally display images with the full source path including the domain.
   ie: `src="http://www.domain.com/install/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/image.jpg"`
