Images not showing in Media Library

Posted in: Newspaper
Post count: 1

I just changed to a new server, fresh install of wordpress, installed your Newspaper Theme and imported my content. Everything seems good, the images show up in the posts but when I go to the Media Library I don’t see any of the images and all the feature images are not attached to the posts. I imported from an Artisteer generated theme for WordPress.

Any idea why I am not seeing the images.

Thanks,

Doug

Unless the images are included in the new dbase they won’t be seen in the media manager which is part of wordpress and not the theme.

SO, check your dbase to see if the images are actually in the dbase for the media manager or not; depending on how you “imported” your data they might not actually be there — so it looks like the new version of WP didn’t “upload and register” them.

just as general tip, you can often Google these kinds of things to quickly find answer, as I just did, without waiting for support here, for general WordPress issues — after 10 years, there is a LOT of “help!” info for WP online. For example, I just did search for “force wordpress to refresh media manager” … and found the above info for you 🙂

Hope that helps!

In future you may find the DUPLICATOR plugin is the best way to MOVE a WP site to another server or domain name. I had to do this recently, worked flawlessly 🙂
