// Use plain links for images in the social activity wall.
add_action( 'wp_ajax_um_activity_publish', 'um_activity_load_wall_permalinks', 9 );
add_action( 'wp_ajax_um_activity_load_wall', 'um_activity_load_wall_permalinks', 9 );

Images in the activity posts may work wrong if rewrite rules on your website are misconfigured or if your server firewall blocks image URLs.

Go to wp-admin > Settings > Permalinks. Don’t change settings on this page, just update. WordPress will update rewrite rules on your website.

Follow recommendations in this article if you use the Nginx web server: NGINX Configuration Rewrite Rule for Ultimate Member Social Activity. Verify settings for the ModSecurity (WAF) module if this module is installed on the server. Make sure that these URLs are allowed:

URL structure: http://{domain}/um-activity-download/{post_id}/{author_id}/{verify_key}/{image}
Example: http://um.loc/um-activity-download/2906/29/65933a9946/1709136141.jpg

As a temporary solution you can use a code snippet to change the URL structure for images. Select the solution that best suits you:

• um_activity_load_wall_permalinks.php code snippet uses a plain URL structure with parameters that does not need specific rewrite rules, but still supports security features.
• um_activity_get_download_link_direct.php code snippet uses a direct link that should work everywhere, but does not support security features.

You can add code snippet to the functions.php file in the theme directory or using a special plugin like Code Snippets or WPCode.
