I just set up my website today (yay) but I am noticing that all of the pictures on the "news" page and the one on the home page by my name doesn't show up. I have tried a few of your PWS websites too and it is the same. If I hit the "ie tab" or view through IE the pictures are there. Does anybody else have this problem? I have tried clearing cache but have not rebooted because I can't disconnect from work just yet. Thanks!

I called tech support about this awhile ago. I was told that the websites are not necessarily compatible with firefox. I wish they would reconsider this. Its frustrating. Lots of people ONLY use it.

Well it's just that I remember seeing that particular picture in the past on my recruiter's website and mine earlier today and I only use firefox. It's just a few pictures so I am not going to stress it. Thanks!Lynda
 
I use Firefox on my Mac, and it used to work, but now it's not. I think it's unacceptable to have sites that are only IE-compatible, because then they aren't actually following the standard for web code. (And BTW, the sites don't always work if you're running IE on a Mac, either - has to be on a Windows machine).
 
Strange - I use Firefox, and it's fine with mine.....on 2 different computers.
 
Mine used to show up on Firefox, but now they're not. It's really frustrating, because just about everyone I know has used Firefox for a very long time. [Edited to add: I updated pictures today, and those I selected aren't showing up. The pictures I left the same are showing up fine. GRR]

I hadn't had an issue until about a week ago and I have had my PWS for 2 years and have always used Firefox. I emailed HO and got this @#$#%$ email backThe issues described in your earlier email are occurring only for Mozilla Firefox users. I have reported this issue to our web site developers who will research the issue. If possible, please use the Internet Explorer web browser to update your personal web site at this time.

Yeah, I put one picture of a dish I had made up and that shows fine, anything else on there still doesn't show at all. It's not a big enough issue to force me to use IE instead but frustrating just the same.
 
Do not use Internet Explorer!! This is unacceptable from HO, as has been the issue with P3, but that's another thread entirely. If your personal anti-virus (AVG) is up-to-date you will be fairly safe, but they should be developing and researching to make their web program compatible with firefox. This is the only thing my husband uses and puts on all his clients computers. It is much safer.

My pictures are showing up in firefox now, maybe enough of us FF users complained? Is anybody else getting the pics now?
 
The pics did not show up when I went to PC to update my web site, but when viewing like an outsider, the pics (except my home page) were all there.

All my pics are showing up (the one on my home page is one I made myself). I see your pics, except your home page and same with my director's page. Really very odd. If you want to see mine it's /notjustcrockLynda
 
Lynda,What did you make that is in your picture? It looks yummy.

That's the chicken alfredo lasagna recipe that came with the rectangular baker. It tasted pretty yummy too.Lynda
 
Can you email me the recipe for that one Lynda? I checked out the care guides and it only list recipes from our cookbooks for the rectangular baker. They should list the ones that come with the products.I just realized Lynda, You're up late there in PA.

Yeah I am usually a night bird but am never supposed to be up this late. Good thing I don't have to be at work till 10:30.Lynda
 
I noticed yesterday that this error is sort of fixed. Only the pic on my home page isn't coming up, but I was on someone else's PWS, and it showed up fine. Weird.I agree that it's unacceptable for PWS not to work properly with a standards-compliant browser.
 

Frequently Asked Questions

Why don't pictures show up on my PWS in Firefox?

There could be several reasons why pictures are not displaying on your Personal Website (PWS) in Firefox. Common issues include browser settings, extensions blocking images, or caching problems. It's important to check these factors to resolve the issue.

How can I clear the cache in Firefox to fix image loading issues?

To clear the cache in Firefox, click on the menu button (three horizontal lines) in the upper right corner, select 'Settings', then 'Privacy & Security'. Under the 'Cookies and Site Data' section, click on 'Clear Data'. Make sure 'Cached Web Content' is checked and then click 'Clear'. This can help refresh the images on your PWS.

Are there any Firefox extensions that might block images on my PWS?

Yes, certain extensions, such as ad blockers or privacy-focused add-ons, may inadvertently block images from loading on your PWS. Try disabling these extensions temporarily to see if that resolves the issue.

What should I do if images still don’t show up after troubleshooting?

If images still do not appear after clearing the cache and disabling extensions, try accessing your PWS in a private browsing window. This mode disables extensions and uses default settings, which can help identify if the issue is related to your regular browsing environment.

Is there a specific setting in Firefox that affects image display?

Yes, Firefox has a setting that can block images from loading. To check this, go to 'Settings', then 'Privacy & Security', and scroll down to the 'Permissions' section. Ensure that the 'Load images automatically' option is enabled. If it’s disabled, images will not show up on your PWS.
