Advanced Custom Fields Multisite Upload/Imagery Issue [closed]

by

OK, so I’m using:

  • WordPress 4.4.1 (the latest version at this time)
  • Advanced Custom Fields PRO v5.3.3.2 (the latest version at this time)

I’m having a very strange issue that I cannot seem to fix. I have a multisite setup with five or so websites. They all share the same theme, and have different domain names per site.

Throughout the site, I use ACF (Advanced Custom Fields) to pull in imagery, for example at the top of each page there’s a banner.

The primary site works fine, you can upload images, and when you add an image to a page using ACF, they pull through correctly. These images sit on: /wp-content/uploads/year/month.

Now the issue I’m experiencing is on my other sites, not the primary one, images are stored in /wp-content/uploads/sites/siteID/year/month. Uploading imagery works fine, but when I upload/select an image to use on ACF, they do not show on the front end. When I inspect element on these images, I can see that the path in incorrect. It’s not looking in the /sites/ directory.

I read that I needed to set the upload path in the network admin settings for each site. I can fix it so that ACF looks in the right place for the images, but then I’m unable to upload or view imagery in the media library.

I’ve ruled out this being an issue with Advanced Custom Fields, so I’ve made a new question. For more information, please look at:
