Good day~ I use Rw9.4 and have troubles with images de-linking on a random basis. For most image galleries I use Montage 2 and drop the image files from subfolders within the RW project. While I was working on one section, I noticed de-links in another section doing random checks. And even then, sub-pages with the section have some pages de-linikned and others show the the expected image. My site is heavy on images, so no easy task to re-link. This is the third time occurring. I am on the road right now, so do not have access to timemachine to do a rollback! Any ideas on what is causing this issue and solutions? Appreciate any help & direction you can provide.

Hi @mzscapes, What version of Stacks are you on? Images (and other resources) delinking was an issue with Stacks a few subversions back, but as far as I know, this has been resolved in Stacks 5.xx. Cheers, Erwin ---

Thanks Erwin~. I am using v5.3.0. Is there a possibility that Montage 2 is wonky and causing the delink? Did not see anything searching on Montage 2. Any ideas on how to proceed. Cheers ---

I checked with Doobox on Montage 2, and they advised most likely Stacks5 is the issue. Moving on to Yourhead for assistance. Thanks once again for answering. Cheers ---

Hi @mzscapes, Sorry for the delay. Hmmm… 5.3.0 shouldn’t have this bug. Perhaps it’s back. Best to contact Yourhead indeed. Cheers, Erwin ---

Hi Erwin~ As an update, I was able to roll back and recover the galleries with missing image links. No response from YourHead so far, so hope the latest version of RW & Stacks have fixed the problem. Cheers ---

Hi @mzscapes, Good to hear you found a workaround. Don’t count on a fix from RapidWeaver/Realmac though, as linking images in stacks image containers is purely a Stacks function. So the fix really needs to come from Yourhead. Cheers, Erwin ---

Thanks Erwin~ Well, YourHead has been unresponsive after several pings. Not sure what else I can do. Guess will have to take a look at Elements, but do not relish having to rebuild all my pages! Heading over to ping them again.
