XF 1.5 Broken Image Links

[Michael Murguia]

Hi all,

I know this has been covered, but I have not found a solution to my issue specifically. I run the forums in https mode and I have image caching enabled.

Many users have experienced this error when trying to reference an image on a hosted external site, however, while in "edit" mode, the image displays correctly.

The following thread has broken images:

And the embed url tage that results in a broken link is this:

Any help?

Thank you!

Redirected URLs will not work if you aren't running 1.5.11.

You may also need to refetch the images after upgrading.

OK, thanks. I am running 1.5.11

Can you tell me how to "refetch" images? Thank you!

Essentially you will have to click on each entry in the Image Proxy Log to force a refresh.

OK thanks for that. I did test this on one image and it seemed to work. Just confirming there is no way to bust the cache of all images?

Thanks,

Not in the UI. You may be able to force a refresh of all failed images using:

UPDATE xf_image_proxy SET fail_count = 1 WHERE fail_count > 1;

That should set all failed images to be retried on their next fetch.
