# Update

I’ve figured it out. The Bot is putting all images into a grid, but if there is only one image nothing is displayed.

 ![IMG_4958](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/4X/5/f/7/5f7168583bec79877305d4e63c2775e39257da67.jpeg)

The image is successfully generated, but it does not display. Editing the post and previewing it shows the image, but it doesn’t actually show in the PM.

Try clicking on the “generate image” dropdown.

That just shows the prompt for the image.

Sometimes the API will timeout, and no images will appear. You can check your logs for the specific message. 👍

The API is working, and the images are uploaded. If I click edit on the bot’s post the post preview shows the image. It just doesn’t display in the PM.

No repro here… A grid with 1 image works just fine:

I will try updating to see if that fixes the issue. Is it possible that I have a configuration problem?

I have updated to the latest version, but the single images in grids still do not display.

As an example, this is the post and it’s actual HTML that is displayed in the browser:

```plaintext

[GRID]

As you can see, no actual image is in the generated HTML.

I can’t give you guys any help but telling that I get nothing too when there is just one single image generated.

Yours has an image tag in the HTML, although mine doesn’t.

That’s true. But yet I have to generate two images to get those visible. That’s why I **believe** the issue is same.

It definitely seems similar. For now I just forked the plugin and removed the grid tag. I’m hoping for a permanent solution though, perhaps the bot could only use the grid for multiple images.

Does that div come from the plugin or Stability? But Discourse is handling `d-image-grid`, right?

The plugin just makes a post with a grid tag and Discourse generates the HTML as far as I know. I’m not sure about the specifics behind the scenes.

Then it works. For me anyway.
