I am puzzled that I can no longer see pictures on threads I read any more. Old pictures remain visible, but newer posts just show an Icon that I can't open. What has changed?

Nothing that we know of unless HoTWire has been playing again. Clear your browser cache maybe. What OS and browser are you using? |

Interesting, I did make a fairly hefty change to everything (in that I moved all the code to a new platform), but it should all work as before. If you can give me some example threads and I'll have a look and see if I can repeat the issue. |

I don't know if it's the same issue, but on some threads I can't see pictures and I think it is when the poster uses a third party host for the pictures.
My work IT gestapo have blocked all access to things like Dropbox and other file storage areas, so all I can see on threads are icons unless the pictures have been uploaded using the forum uploader.
So, no issue with the forum for me I don't think. It's more than likely the measures put in place on my work laptop to prevent access to sites they don't want it exposed to.
Cheers

Edit: I've just noticed I can now see my signature pictures which are on PostImg, so possibly ignore everything I've just posted above??!!

I've been seeing some icons not pictures but I can't remember what thread it was If I click that link it did something weird initially that I can replicate If I copy it and paste it into a new tab - perfect? |

Okay that is interesting. So that is what the pictures in that thread are pointing at. I'll have a look and see if I can work out why they aren't coming up as linked/embeded images. I've not been able to repeat the issue on any device/browser so far  |

I can see all the images on page 13, there's a post on page 14 with missing images, but that's a photobucket problem. Tested with Chrome, Firefox, Edge Canary and Waterfox |

It's strange, I am using a Mac with google chrome, I have found if I switch to fire fox I can see the pictures again. What is really odd is the fact thet some of the pictures that vanished, were images that I had seen previously, whilst using chrome!

Have you tried a hard refresh of the page in Chrome ? I think on a MAC its either
Hold down Shift and click the Reload button
or
Hold down Command, Shift and click the ‘R’ key.

Tapatalk no longer shows photos uploaded to the forum. Only those linked from elsewhere. Probably a tapatalk issue to be fair!

Wouldn't use Tapatalk if you paid me, many webmasters won't entertain it as it's a pain in the  . Its known to be insecure and has privacy issues. The club I'm admin on binned years it years ago. Modern software/mobile devices/4G etc make it redundant IMO. |

I suspect that is a local browser issue, have you tried clearing your browser cache ? I'm posting this from Chrome and can see all images.

Yeah, I'm also getting 403 Forbidden on forum hosted images, too; whether in-page, or I copy the link to a new tab.
"You do not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials that you supplied."
Browser is "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:102.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/102.0".
I've logged out/back in, I've cleared cache, doesn't seem to make any difference.
EDIT1: ...interestingly, if I just `wget` the image links, I get the image with no issue. Hmmm. Something funky going on here.
EDIT2: Also, if I use elinks from the terminal, it fetches the image no issue. Seems to be something funny going on with logins, maybe? Going to try logging out and seeing if images load.
EDIT3: Nope. Logging out doesn't help, either.

....aurgh. Okay, I seem to have cured *my* particular flavour of the issue. Request data from trying to load one of the Forbidden Images:  Notice the wonky Accept line. Went in and cleared some settings based around image.http.accept, and that seems to have done the trick. |

I'm not sure what went on, I do wonder if my change of hosting arrangement has caused some issues, but really it shouldn't have. Perhaps there is a certificate renewal issue?? |
