08/29/2023, 10:14 PMHello! I'm creating my first Solidus store using Amazon S3 for file storage, as suggested by Solidus. The images are displayed correctly on the website, although, after some time, they break and don't appear unless I upload them again. I have no clues on how to fix this, any suggestions?

You need to fix your ActiveStorage/S3 setup so the images are public.

The product pages are cached but if you used the default setup the S3 objects will be private. ActiveStorage will generate expiring public URLs for them. Those expiring URLs get cached, so the images stop working once they expire.

There is no reason your product images shouldn't be public.

Up to you. I don't typically use it, but I'm sure it's saved someone's ass before.
