• I’m thinking this is easy, but I’m stumped. I’ve used WordPress in the past and have liked the ease of setup and use. So I decided I would set up a site for my students (middle school). I ran through the install, the site comes up with no images. So I fool around a little. Then I apt-get removed wordpress, cleared all wordpress related files, including /etc/wordpress, dropped the database, recreated it and then reinstalled it. Took about as long as it took to write it up right now.

    In short, the site still comes up with no images. No kubrick*.jpg’s show up on the front page. Not screenshot in the admin->presentation screen. I’m lost. Everything else appears to be working. I searched the site, but couldn’t find anything. Anyone who has an idea, I’d really appreciate it. The site is at http://mrhurst.hopto.org

  • Check your settings on the options page, specificly the WordPress URL. It’s currently set to “localhost” and so the image URLs given are like this:

    #header { background: url("http://localhost/wp-content/themes/default/images/kubrickheader.jpg") no-repeat bottom center; }

    I changed it to 127.0.0.1, then to the actual ip that I have right now. Either way it didn’t work. I’m really at a loss. Thanks for trying to help me though.

    Change it to http://mrhurst.hopto.org/ 😉

    Sorry, forgot to mention, tried that too. It’s just strange. The pictures are there, in the /images directory. And the site has the basic layout of the default. But no images on the served page. I’m going to bed.

    Don’t know if it matters, but here are some things for anyone looking to help.

    debian (unstable)
    apache2
    mrhurst.hopto.org (though no-ip.com)

    Let me know if something else might help.

    It’s working fine now. 🙂
