Images in media library are not displayed after activating Contact Form 7

Hello.

I save my pictures in a separate folder:
https://www.domain.de/images/

For this I made the following adjustment in wp-config.php:
define(‘UPLOADS’, ‘images’);

This has worked without problems so far. But now, when I activate the plugin “Contact Form 7” (or “WPforms lite”), my images are no longer displayed in the media library.

I also see that the file url has been rewritten.
From e.g. https://www.domain.de/images/foto.jpg
to https://www.domain.de/wp-content/uploads//mnt/webXX/XX/XX/XXXXXXXX/htdocs/Wordpress_06/images/foto.jpg

Now I don’t understand why the apparently absolute path including // is enabled.

If I deactivate the 2 contact plugins, the images in the media library are shown to me again with the desired URL.

How can I solve the problem?

Theme (purchased): Cherie WordPress Theme
However – when using the “Health Check & Troubleshooting” plugin with the basic WordPress theme – the same problem occur.

Plugins:
- Advanced custom fields
- Boxilla
- Cherie Core
- Contact Form 7
- Elementor
- Envato Market
- GoogleAnalytics for WordPress by MonsterInsights
- Health Check & Troubleshooting*
- Kirki Customizer Framework
- MC4WP: Mailchimp for WordPress
- One Click Demo Import
- PW WooCommerce Gift Cards
- Smash Balloon Instagram Feed
- SVG Support
- Under Construction*
- WooCommerce
- WPForms lite
- Yoast Duplicate Post*
- Yoast SEO*
All plugins, except *, did come with the theme. The same error occurs with Contact Form 7, too.

I won’t need all the plugins, but while setting up everything, I leave them active.

Welcome to Support Forum — Please Read Before Posting

We know that there are commercial theme vendors who bundle third-party plugins with their theme packages. If a plugin is bundled with a theme, the plugin is part of the theme, and the responsibility of support lies with the theme vendor, not with the original plugin author. If you use the Contact Form 7 plugin that has come with the theme you use, support requests posted in this forum are likely to be turned down, and you will be asked to contact the theme vendor instead.
