Missing images again

Post by Tyler Meagher »

My images from my posts are missing again. Is it just me or is this happening to others again?

For example:

viewtopic.php?p=82296#p82296
viewtopic.php?p=79293#p79293

No changes on our end. I will be back at a computer tomorrow and will look into it. Everything should be good as we have a complete pyramid of backups.

I am looking at several other posts in different sections and so far all images are appearing as they should – elsewhere, at least.

Tyler, I looked at another of your threads and the images are intact. For example, this one:

viewtopic.php?p=97916#p97916

I can't tell what might be the issue on the thread you've highlighted here but I do see the posts are from 2019 - well before the last implosion (in Jan/Feb 22).

Are you sure you restored the images in those 2019 posts?

Look at the dates of the postings (originals) 2019 was way back in the land of lost images. They have been gone...long, long gone. Look at the date of the post still with images. 2023 No posts have lost images since the coalman left. many images were lost in two separate back up faux pas. 2017-2022.
I lost hundreds of images and spent hundreds of hours over the two separate loss periods restoring them. If your stuff is gone and there are no edit privileges, they are gone forever, unless someone offers to put them back up for you. Or if you have the old images you might be given privileges for a short period if all the lost images are important to you.

We had a very rough patch between then and now. Much was lost.

I restored all my lost images once back in May 2020. I still have all the photos so I can restore them again if you give me the ability to edit my posts for a few days.

That would be Frank or the perfesser. I have zero administrative skills or access to same. I am a moderator and not an administrator.

I constantly roam over my older posts made during this dark age 2017-2022 here. This thread had me poke around and I found a key post of mine in the forum on control and instrumentation.
All of my images were missing on two of my posts. I have restored them now. They were in my post giving details of the Arduino for the fusioneer.
I am use to this now and continue to troll for lost stuff in my older posts.
