I’m trying to download all of the images on my site (appliedmmt.com). The site is self-hosted on a Digital Ocean droplet. I was able to download the /var/www/ghost/content/ directory but none of the images are in it. I went as far as downloading the entire /var/www/ghost directory and still can’t find the images. Any idea why this is?
They would normally be deeply nested within content/images. Except any unsplash images. Or images that aren’t hosted on ghost (the result of using the API or importer, possibly?)
Very strange. This is all I see in the content/images folder:
As you can see on the site, we have uploaded a bunch of images directly from the ghost admin panel/editor.
I think you are looking at the wrong Ghost site on your server.
Based on the screenshot, the mailgun.svg should be reachable at https://appliedmmt.com/content/images/2023/10/mailgun.svg. But it’s not.
Compare, for example to: https://appliedmmt.com/content/images/2023/12/image-2.png, which follows the same URL structure.
Can you do a ghost ls on your server to see if there are multiple Ghost installations?
Nope.
Ah, I just found the images!
They’re in /var/www/ghost/versions/5.71.0/content/images/
Any idea why this is? Anything I need to do to fix?
