Images not showing (some imgur image rendered instead) in root domain above my WordPress install

General

I have a WordPress installation in a subdomain (e.g. https://example.com/**blog**).

To take advantage of the SSL and other security features I routed the entire domain through Cloudflare.

In the WordPress installation in the subdomain I use the W3 Total Cache (“W3TC”) plugin. This appears to include a Cloudflare settings panel which incorporates an ability to set a ‘cache time’ in minutes with Cloudflare, and another which enables the Cloudflare cache to be flushed when posts are modified. Other than that I don’t know how it interacts with Cloudflare.

I have not installed the WordPress Cloudflare plugin.

The WordPress installation site in the subdomain seems to work fine with all this - except that, in the root level of the domain (‘above’ the level of the WordPress installation), I find that simple images won’t render in HTML pages. Curiously, instead of the image I try to show, I get this image showing instead:


The cause of this and its solution may seem obvious to others, but I have no idea what’s happening.

Can anyone help?

I can’t post, because Akismet has “temporarily” (read: permanently) hidden my post.

What do I do?

You are talking about a Wordpress blog, right? Unfortunately that is not Cloudflare related and hence beyond the scope of the forum. Maybe you can try over at StackExchange.
