Wondering if I selected the wrong blog post type so images are not displaying in Category pages

I had a problem about six months ago with some of my blogs where their images were not displaying on Category pages because I had created blogs of the type Video instead of a regular blog. I have just come across three more blogs whose images are not displaying in their category view pages. I am wondering if this might be the same problem again. The last time you changed the blog type for me in the database.

Both of the blogs on this page are not displaying image or introtext:

https://www.drcarney.com/blog/dining-out

a couple of blogs on this page appears to have the same problem:

https://www.drcarney.com/blog/health-testimonial

The title of the blogs in question are:

"Sheila Lewis Chose Diet Instead of Bypass"

and

"Ruth Heidrich Beats Breast Cancer"

I am wondering if this is caused by the same problem that we had discovered six months ago for some other blog posts?

If so can you change their blog type or tell me how to change their blog type?

Thank you very much,

Sean Carney
Hi Sean,

Yes you are correct about your deductions. It seems that those blog post are based on video types. I have changed them but somehow it does not take place currently

I suspected that it is because your CDN have cache them currently. Can you try to purge them first or temporarily disabled them so that we can further check this issues?

Thank you very much Abdul,

I suspect that what you did will fix the problem if you changed the blogs to a type of blog instead of video blog.

However, I am not seeing the changed even after clearing the history from KeyCDN and clearing the cache from my Joomla backend and turning off the cache and turning off the CDN.

But, my experience with these type of caching and CDN issues is that sometimes they just don't make sense and take time. Somehow I expect what you did will work. I am just not sure why I am not seeing it yet.

I just discovered that even though I had turned off KeyCDN with the Regular Labs CDN for Joomla plugin, it was still enabled for EasyBlog because I had entered in the url for the CDN there. I have just now removed the CDN url for EasyBlog, EasyDiscuss and EasySocial. I also ensured the CDN url is NOT entered for Komento. I am hoping this may help with the issue of things appearing to be served from the CDN even though I thought the CDN was disabled.

It appears that the images are not showing even with all caching turned off and the KeyCDN purged multiple times and the history removed from my chrome browser, Do you have any other ideas?

Hi there,

After further check, it seems that it still getting those revision(previous post) draft of those post. I have deleted on your database and it should shown as it should now. Can you give it a check and see how it goes.

Here are steps that i applied on your end.

1. Update those post from video post type to normal post type by executing sql below.

[gist type="php"]
UPDATE `drcarne2`.`drca_easyblog_post` SET `posttype` = '' WHERE `drca_easyblog_post`.`id` =104;
[/gist]

2. Execute sql query below and then drop all data in it in order to get it current revision(latest changes).

[gist type="php"]
SELECT * FROM `drca_easyblog_revisions` WHERE post_id = '54'
[/gist]

* change id accordingly to your post as you can see here.
