images that I upload into alloy 3 via drag and drop are not showing on the live site.
the live site is on my-domain.com/dev/
the folder “dev” contains all alloy related folders like image-uploads, embeds, blog etc.
when I go to the live site where the image should appear, I only see a missing image icon. when I inspect the URL for that missing image it refers to my-domain.com (not my-domain.com/dev/)
why is that?
I refer to my-domain.com/dev/ in RW/general settings
in publishing settings I refer to my-domain.com/ and for “path” I refer to /dev/
I want to stay in dev for the moment and when all is working I want to switch to my-domain.com without the need to re-do all my blog posts, droplets and embeds
what is the best way to do this?
The folders for posts, droplets, embeds and images are created at the top level of your site so that Alloy has access to them through the use of the Stacks and RapidWeaver API paths in an easy way. This also makes sure that these folders are in an easy to use and discover location for users. This is by design.
Also, your Editor page needs to be at the top level of pages and should not be nested within other pages. I suspect this is something you might have done as well.
I am not sure what caused the trouble but in some way it had to do with the structure of folders on the webspace. I think, I have sorted this somehow…
but unfortunately I notice another weird behaviour regarding the embeds:
I have created a couple of embeds without any issue but suddenly the layout in the editor breaks and the stack icons are missing.
any idea what is going on there?!
I think I have an idea of what it might be. But I will need your project and embeds folder to do a final check. Once I have those I’ll be able to assess it better. Let me know if you need my email address.
Great. I’ll look at it first thing tomorrow morning. I suspect it is related not to the number of entries but a misplaced closing tag that comes into play after a certain number groups (aka Pages).
Hi Adam, do you already know if you were right with what you suspected?
Since I am further working on the website the embed and droplet files from the server that I sent you yesterday are not the latest versions anymore (in case that matters for what you do with these files?!)
