Cursor ui

Images Not Loading After Path Changes

Images that were previously displaying correctly now fail to load after Cursor reorganized your asset or component files. Broken image icons appear where images should be.

Image paths are incorrect after the file move.

Error Messages You Might See

404 Not Found for image Broken image icon Image fails to load Path does not exist
404 Not Found for imageBroken image iconImage fails to loadPath does not exist

Common Causes

  1. Image src path not updated after files moved
  2. Relative path depth incorrect (../../assets vs ../assets)
  3. Public folder not served or path to it changed
  4. Image import removed, trying to use string path
  5. Build process changed how assets are referenced

How to Fix It

Use absolute paths from public: /images/logo.png not relative. Or import: import logo from './logo.png'; <img src={logo} />. Check DevTools Network tab for actual request 404. Verify webpack/build config serves public folder.

What I bring to AI-built apps: - I audit and fix security issues (OWASP methodology), performance bottlenecks, and architectural problems in codebases generated by Cursor, Claude Code, Lovable, Bolt, and v0 - I refactor AI-generated prototypes into production-grade applications with proper error handling, testing, and clean architecture (SOLID, DDD, hexagonal architecture) - I set up the infrastructure AI tools don't touch: AWS hosting, CI/CD pipelines, automated deployments, database optimization, monitoring, and alerting - I integrate external services: payment providers, email systems, partner APIs, SSO/auth Tech stack: PHP 8.x, Symfony, React, Next.js, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Docker, AWS (ECS, RDS, S3, SQS/SNS, CloudFront), Terraform, Supabase.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I reference public folder images?

Use absolute path: /images/logo.png. Assumes public/ is served at root. Check webpack publicPath.

Should I import images or use src?

Both work. Import for bundling/hashing. Src string for public folder. Choose based on how you want them served.
