Asked by blaynebennett99
I recently deployed a small laravel app on the digital ocean apps platfrom and images I had saved in my public/images folder are’t displaying. My image tag looks like so
<img alt="image" src="{{ asset('images/port_site.png') }}"/>
I am not sure if I am missing anything when it comes to the deployment or where these images should be located but everything looks correct on my end and the images display when I am building locally but once deployed they wont display.

Hi there @blaynebennett99,
I could suggest a couple of things:
- Check the exact error that you are getting in your web console, it could be due to mixed content. If this is the case, then what you could do is force HTTPS by editing the
app/Providers/AppServiceProvider.phpfile and in thebootmethod add the following:
if ($this->app->environment('production')) {
\URL::forceScheme('https');
}
- Make sure that your images are present in the images folder.
Let me know how it goes! Regards, Bobby
