Image missing from Blank Sidebox on SSL pages

wifidoc,

A link to your site and some additional info on your image name and folder location

Hello,

I've installed this module and everything is working fine. Just wondering if I could add a php code in for an image rotator because I have a lot images but don't really like the idea of having them all shown at once. If it's gonna help, i'll be using "Better Image Rotator" from A List Apart.

It's just a blank sidebox. You can add anything you like.

However, if you have problems with it, please don't post them here, as they will be about the specific integration that you are doing and not the blank sidebox mod for which this is the support thread. Start a new thread and I'll help there if I can.

Ok, made a new thread

Hey thanks for your reply. I found that it was a permission setting on one of the folders on the server and once I had given it greater privilages it worked. It wasnt working however if I tried to ftp the file myself and put the path into the banner manager in admin but it did work once I selected to upload it through the banner manager and changed the permissions for the folder the image was being saved to...All the best

In the event you've run accross this thread after doing a search for a similar problem, I solved the mystery. My problem was caused by the .htaccess file in my images directory. In following the suggestion to stop people from linking to images on my site I'd neglected to add the secure domain to the file....

I know nothing about SSL, but I find all the images on my https:// pages (such as checkout) disappear when I enable Hotlinking protection on my Cpanel (I am using Camelot hosting). If I disable the Hotlink protection, the images are back.

GOD BLESS YOU! I was about to pull my hair out over the mystery of the disappearing header & images at checkout. Many thanks, Mike.
