Hello
Thank you for raising this point.
I have previously noticed that adding “.png” or whatever the format of the file was to the end of the URL helped. Have you tried it?
Many thanks,
Bruno

Hi there! I hope you’re having a great day.
I’ve had a look at this, based on the URL you've presented in your message, my guess is that you're not actually linking to the image, but the shared url.
For instance, the url you provided:
https://drive.usercontent.google.com/download?id=1P7ssJsoxLzsQjkGdRf_b4EFTYvIbAQmr&authuser=0
Is the URL of the webpage showing the image, not the image itself.
Make sure you're linking to the actual image itself, I’d usually expect the URL to end with a .png or .jpg, representing the file type.
Hope this helps!
Hi Keiran
Thank you for your help !
Unfortunately i couldn't figure out how to set the images
When i copy the link from the google drive
, all i get is this link https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ckfWg82_LTwAW8sS_4LrK1CA0uysjIOO/view?usp=sharing
Drive google is authorized.
Is there something that i'm doing wrong ? should i store the images elsewhere ?
Thank you

Hi,
Apologies, I should have mentioned in my previous message, unfortunately due to Google changing their cookies policy in January 2024 you will not be able to use Google Drive to host this image.
I’d recommend speaking to your IT team to get the URL of an image hosted on your website. In this case, I’ve taken the liberty to review your homepage, and the URL https://www.polarisintelligence.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/cropped-Polaris-FINAL-WITH-TEXT-1.png may work well for you.
I hope this helps!
Thank you so much Keiran.
Now I understand why all the images that were loaded just disapeared.
Thank you
Ali
