Update. I turned Jetpack back on and now all the images show on the FRONT end but are still MIA in media library.
Hi there, @kwoodall,
Have you noticed if the issue happens only with the files reporting the Could not retrieve file path
status in your Media Gallery?
If that’s so, it’s possible that the system cannot find the files in the Media Gallery. Try re-uploading them to see if there’s progress.
Let me know how you get on, and we’ll take it from there if necessary.
Thanks!
Yes, but if you look at the video, you’ll see those images are clearly there. It’s also thousands of images, so that’s an issue too.

Hi @kwoodall!
The link you shared in your initial message returns 404: https://nimb.ws/OKbX4d
Could you please share an updated/working link so we can check this further?
Thanks!
I figured out the issue. The metadata, in postmeta, for these images had been lost. We wrote a quick plugin to reconstruct this metadata, then ran Regenerate Thumbnails again with no issue.
Hi again,
That’s great to hear! Thanks for letting us know.
Please feel free to contact us if you have any other questions.
