The issue:
JPG images not working and no preview but I can see them in the media folder if using “edit”.
PNG images work just fine. I’ve been through cPanel and set all permissions to 777 so idk what is going on but I’m dead in the water at this point.
This has been going on for some time so I did an complete reset of plug ins and database trying to zero out everything.
It should be noted that everything works fine on my Dev site but when migrating it over to the real domain the jpgs do not work. soooo weird
