  In your console, what URL is it trying to resolve for the images?

  
  

  
  

  Relative paths won't cut it here. You'll have to point it to where they're served from

  @denolfe, you're right and can I serve it from Payload or do I need to upload it to somewhere else? Here is what I get as the image source:

  <img src="../images/mediaAndText.jpg">

  You'll need to configure

  /images

  as static directory using express.static

  https://expressjs.com/en/starter/static-files.html
  
  

  and then you can use something like

  /images/mediaAndText.jpg
