Hello Karl,

If this is a already known issue (or if it´s a feature, but not a bug), then kindly excuse.
For some odd reason i can´t get X3 to generate thumbnails after uploading.
X3-Panel-check is fine and also front-end works without any issue.
Already uninstalled nginx and double-checked php-settings to see if icould solve the problem.
.
Site is hosted on own server running ubuntu

any idea ?

thx & best wishes
Frederik

I have been looking at your website, and it seems the root .htaccess file is missing. In our docs, scroll down to the "important" section for information about this file:
https://www.photo.gallery/x3docs/setup/upload/

Without the .htaccess file, it means all your pages are generated with links like this: dogsbestfriends.de/?/Seminare/Betty/ ... See the question mark? Technically speaking, they are not separate pages, and this is not good for SEO. The only reason it still works for your X3 website, is because we managed to "fix" it so it uses different URLS for pages AND images, but this is dysfunctional. This "fix" is not implemented into the panel. In future release, you are required to have the .htaccess file and rewrite operating properly, so you should look into it.

According to your "check" page, I predict everything will be fine once you drop the .htaccess file into root.

Problem solved ! Many thanks.

You were right ! " htaccess" was there, but the dot (.) was missing in front of the filename, so i did not recognize it. :oops:
