When I open the website in WordPress, everything looks normal, but when I open the website from the live link, most of the photos are not visible.

Hi @palacorp

Nick here following up on your support request!

Live Links don’t match your Local Site URL (ie: mysite.local), so Local attempts to rewrite these on the fly. Live Links is broadly compatible with many themes, plugins, and custom code snippets. However, some images, front-end assets, or other HTML elements may be missing from your site when viewing it over Live Links. Try the tips below:

- Run the following WP-CLI command  
`wp search-replace 'SITEURL' 'LOCALURL' --skip-columns=guid`

- Replace SITEURL with your production URL like [https://localwp.com](https://localwp.com)

- Replace LOCALURL is your Local Site URL like [http://mysite.local](http://mysite.local)

- Trust Local’s SSL certificate

- Disable certain types of plugins: caching, security, force HTTPS/SSL
