Did you add an image to an existing article? Clear the cache or internet temporary files in your browser.

If your Joomla caching is turned on at the back end (Global Configuration - System - Cache Settings), clean the cache by going to Global Configuration and then to Site - Maintenance - Clear Cache.

Some may well be able to help if they could have a look at your site, if it is available on the public internet.

Looking at the HTML source code of the home page, the Facebook image is displayed all right because its location is given as an absolute URL, which points directly to the image file:

Code: Select all

<img src="http://www.wazero.com/modules/mod_fuofb/assets/en/find-us-on-facebook-2.png" alt="Facebook Image" title="Visit our Facebook page and become a fan." width="144" height="44" />
Instead of

Code: Select all

<img src="images/brosurwazero.jpg" border="0" width="546" height="1240" />
you should use the absolute URL

Code: Select all

<img src="http://www.wazero.com/images/brosurwazero.jpg" border="0" width="546" height="1240" />
and the image should not disappear when SEF alters the URL.

Please note that using absolute links is a workaround because it is normally better to use relative links so that the domain name is not hard coded into the content pages or modules.

As kenmcd suggests in http://forum.joomla.org/viewtopic.php?f=615&t=614013, this could be an issue with the SEF extension. Do you use a SEF extension or just the SEO settings in the Global Configuration?

yes..i guess it's the SEF that caused it...just the SEO settings in the Global Configuration... i try turn it off and the image is okay..it didn't showed up and disappear.
if i turn it off, will it affect the search engine to find my web? how to solve that? thanks before...
