My best guess is one of two following…
One, the document root can not be determined automatically. So you have to manually set the DOCUMENT_ROOT here’s how:
Add the following to the timthumb-config.php file found here:
../wp-content/plugins/connections/includes/libraries/timthumb/This is what you need to add, make sure to change the doc root accordingly:
define ('LOCAL_FILE_BASE_DIRECTORY','/my/doc/root/');What
/my/doc/rootwill be will depend entirely on the server setup. If you go to the the Connections : Dashboard admin page and look at the the System widget; there will be a constant named CN_PATH. The doc root should be the beginning portion of that path. What I can tell you is that from thewp-contenton will NOT be part of the doc root.Two, some server setting is preventing the script from reading the images and if that is the case, so, I do not know what that could be. Maybe a rule in the
.htaccessfile or something your webhost has configured. If you have any security related plugins installed, perhaps they’re blocking content.I hope that helps point you in the right direction.

I see you replied a couple times while I was drafting my initial reply…
What you did to get it to work on the public side of your site is you set the Medium image size to the correct size for the template so it didn’t need to create them dynamically. In the admin, they are still being created dynamically which is why you’re seeing the loading spinner. My suggestions from my previous reply still apply.

GuestMy images aren’t displaying. I talked to the host and checked everything is set up fine, none of the things you have mentioned have fixed this. Do you have any idea why this may not be working? This is a pressing issue for me

Keymaster@ Chris
I was just at your site, looks like it is working.

ParticipantHello,
I’ve recently migrated a site to a new server, and now I’ve come across this problem. I’ve checked and set the permissions of the folders mentioned above, but still I get no images to display. Could you please help?

I took a look. I think it is a doc root issue. Have you tried the solution is this post above?

ParticipantThat did it. Thanks, Steven. :)
