Mysterious Disappearing Background Image

    I’m running WP 2.6 and I’m using the Randomizer plugin to generate a random background, a la MTV. It’s been working fine for several weeks. However, I installed WP eCommerce and now it’s not working. The style info is still there in the code, and the BG color changes, but the image is missing.

    Here’s the weird parts: I assumed it was the plugin and disabled it. But the problem persisted. Additionally, it works on the home page just fine – it’s only the sub pages that are affected.

    Anyone care to take a look and tell me what really obvious thing I’m overlooking?

    Have you checked that the missing background images are actually present in your theme’s images folder? I tried the URL of one directly and got a 404 not found.

    Thank you. The images were, in fact, there, but I just recently switched my permalink style and I forgot to add a slash “/” before the image file path.

    While the images were there, I probably wouldn’t have paid much attention without your suggestion. Thank you.

    Hi there,

    I seem to be having a similar issue. I have a brandnew blog with custom theme and wanted to change the permalink style from the default one. All background images do not appear.

    @ frontlines: Can you elaborate about where exactly you placed the slash “/” ?

    Thanks,
    Nico
