 * For some reason it isnt including all the images in the posts and pages. It includes
   some of them. Ive checked permission and ownership of the files. There is no 
   difference between the images it skips and those that it processes. 
   There are
   other files in this directory that are being written so its not a permissions
   problem there either.Of course that includes a bunch of images I don’t use in
   the live pages anymore. And then the zip file is too big for cloudflare to process
   as I am using dev pages. I don’t know what else to do as I cant find any reason
   why it wont include some image files. I am having no issues from the plugin otherwise.
   There are no errors in the plugin log.
 * If I add the upload directory or missing image to the additional files/directory
   setting in the plugin it works. 
   /var/www/beta.mywebsite.com/public_html/wp-content/
   uploads/or /var/www/beta.mywebsite.com/public_html/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/
   quick-easy-setup-240×300-150×150-1.webpBut I cant track down each file thats 
   missing across the website and add it. And I cant just add the upload directory
   because it has a lot of images that aren’t currently in use. This makes the zip
   file too large for cloudflare. I use their dev pages for the static files and
   the max zip size it 25 MB. Normally my site is about a 15 MB zip. But that directory
   IS readable for many other files. So I am still at a loss for what is going on
   here. All permissions and file ownership/group are the same across all those 
   files and directories. I have disabled ALL plugins except this one and stripped
   my .htaccess file to just the original wordpress stuff.I turned on diagnostics–
   again no errors. Its like its not even seeing these missing image in the pages
   and posts themselves.

 * I fixed this by updating my wordpress url using the code below in phpmyadmin.
   I use beta.mywebsite.com on my local box to develop the site. Then the live site
   is simply mywebsite.com — inside these pages and posts it was listing mywebsite.
   com not beta.mywebsite.com – I guess not everywhere. I had the site and url settings
   set in wordpress to beta.mywebsite.com so I have no clue what happened. It works
   now. Though my zip file is now 122 mb – so it must’ve been missing way more images
   than I thought. Fortunately despite a cloudflare maximum warning of 25 mb it 
   still accepts and imports my zip file.
 *     ```wp-block-code
       UPDATE wp_options SET option_value = replace (option_value, 'oldurl.com', 'newurl.com') WHERE option_name = 'home' OR option_name = 'siteurl';
       UPDATE wp_posts SET guid = replace (guid, 'oldurl.com','newurl.com');
       UPDATE wp_posts SET post_content = replace (post_content, 'oldurl.com', 'newurl.com');
       UPDATE wp_postmeta SET meta_value = replace (meta_value,'oldurl.com','newurl.com');
       ```

 * If you do this you’ll need to go back once again and change beta.beta.mywebsite.
   com to beta.mywebsite.com as it has changed the two site urls. After that everything
   works perfectly. If you find that it is pulling in ALL of your images, even those
   that are not included in published articles. Add the following to your .htaccess
   Options -Indexes That will stop that behavior.
