I have looked around a bit, at solutions to embed Google Drive images and haven't found an actual solution to my issue specifically. My page loads images fine on the first load, but after a few refreshes or navigations, images no longer show, but then show again after maybe 30 minutes or so. Has anyone encountered this, or is there an explanation for this? Your assistance is appreciated.

Regards.

  • @Digao I've just noticed that this only occurs with multiple image, it doesn't happen when it is just one image. – Thebehali Consulting Nov 24 '20 at 17:38
  • @ThebehaliConsulting I gave up using google drive to store images. Actually, as other posts say, it is not meant for that purpose, that's why they have quotas.. you should consider moving your structure to another infrastructure. In my case, since I had space to spare, I am serving images by myself in my server using nginx. It is working just fine... and much easier to implement and maintain... – Digao Nov 24 '20 at 23:13

Have a look at this post, you need to follow specific steps to do it properly, with this information its hard to say whats the problem. Maybe create a snippet.

  • Thanks @Marijn, like I said, they load fine initially, so the links are okay. They just stop loading at one point, but then again reload fine some time later. The closest analogy I can think of, is a carburetor overflow... LoL.. – Thebehali Consulting Nov 24 '20 at 17:49
