   Hi there,

   I am using the Kubrick template. When I use thumbnails for images on my blog, sometimes instead of seeing the picture load, I get this error message: "Sorry, no attachments matched your criteria." I get this problem more often in IE than in Firefox, but my readers say they see it regularly in Firefox. Here's a link to one of the problematic posts:

   Any help would be much appreciated!! I've been stumped on this one forever. Thanks so much!!

   First I've seen of this post but I would have checked to see if those attachment number match up with the images in question. Open up your database, look through your posts table and see if you have IDs 1227, 1231 and the rest.

   Gotta admit that I just link directly to the images myself.

   How do I open the database to look?

   The thing is, the links work every now and then but not at other times.

   Is there some way my host (BlueHost) or something within WordPress would be putting a limit on how many people can be viewing the image at one time?

   You know, in case anyone's interested, I changed this line in attachment.php:

   <?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

   To this:

   <?php if (1) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

   And it seems to have fixed the problem. Strange.

   Had same problem (strangely could view the attachment page when logged in as admin). Discovered that problem was in the database. post_parent was set to a non existent post id (-1179608178 when should have been 22!). Must be a bug when adding attachment.

   trd79, you are my hero!!!! Yes, that's definitely the real problem. I wonder if there's anything I can do to fix that so that I don't always have to go in and edit the database?

   I'm having a similar problem with getting the attachment.php page to show images. I've tried all sorts of code from other attachment.php samples. The page will show the image only when I'm logged in. When logged out, I get a "None Found" message.
   I don't know where to fix that post_parent entry in the database. So for now I've got no linking on my images. I'd sure like to know how to get this to work. It's not critical right now because I'm still playing with WordPress, but it will become an issue if this isn't fixed.

   I too am having the exact same issue, and have yet to find an answer. The links from thumbnails in my posts work fine when I am logged into the admin panel, but as soon as I sign out, the links show: Sorry, but you are looking for something that isn't here.

   I know it's there, it just isn't linking to it. I have tried the default theme, and checked the site using both Firefox and Safari.

   I am not comfortable going into the database and futzing around, unless I know exactly what it is I am doing.

   "Must be a bug when adding attachment." How do we solve this is the question.

    I am having the SAME exact issue and haven't figured out what to do. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. I was uploading 5 pics and all worked well yet on the 6th pic the issue started. Ugh. Any detailed help would be so appreciated. I really need to upload a thumbnail and have it open in a few page.
