Images not showing with friendly URL's

[markh28]

PS Version 8.1.7.  This seems to be common, and I wish there was an easy answer for it by now.  But my images don't show up in the front office when I have friendly URLs enabled.  I turn off friendly URL's and they are back.  Back office images are fine.  I have spent hours reading threads, most of them much older versions of PS than mine.  Nothing has worked.  I have deleted and regenerated the htaccess file several times.  Regenerated thumbnails, etc.

On a similar note, why do the friendly URL's have the category id in them?  I would think the url mysite.com/cooking would have much more SEO value than mysite.com/21-cooking.  Its a bit annoying.  I am almost ready to abandon a couple weeks worth of work and go back to wordpress.

Hi, natively Prestashop url rewriting use the id for categories and products. This has no real disadvantage for seo. Did ou check image url to see the issue in path construction?

When friendly URLs are on, this is the image url:  (and the image does not show on the web page and I can not go directly to the image in my browser using this url)

When they are off, this is the url:  (and the image shows on the web page and I can go directly to the image in my browser using this url)

It looks like an issue on rules, can you publish your .htaccess

did not have friendly url activated the first time (see edit history)

Try to remove numbers in product title (ie: 12 in your site)

[markh28]

Tried that on an item.  Did not fix the issue.  I cant take numbers out of my product titles anyway, because they are a very descriptive part of the titles.
