    Hi everyone, I really need your help. In one of our blogs, we recently experienced a malware attack. We managed to clean up and restore our blog but the problem now is that when we edit our pictures.

    When click on the image and edit picture, what loads up is a page not found. I’m not sure how this happened but I could sure use some advice and help.

    Thank you!

    I found the solution, when we were infected, I ran a malware cleaner plugin that asked me to secure my website. I did and it made a lot of htaccess files on different folders.

    It made one in the wp-includes folder that restricted access to images. And when you remove the deny allow file that restricts jpg etc., you’ll have access again.

    I hope it helps someone who encounters this too.
