Pop-ups in RH 2022 causing output warnings

When I add a link as an auto-sized pop-up, all seems well until I go to generate the output. I get a whole bunch of warnings in the log (see attachment). I notice numerous references to missing files. These have a -th suffix, but there are no such files in my project. Any clues?

    I believe the issue here is that  you have links to those files but, as you say, you don’t have those files in your project. The links have been created by pointing to files on the drive but not in your project files.

    Search in your project for the file names and check the path in the source to those files. Don’t search on the whole broken link shown in your attachment; the path in the source code is relative rather than absolute as shown.

    Don’t the “-th” image references refer to thumbnails that get generated out of your images (if you turn that on someplace?)

    Don't worry about my question. I found a <link> statement pointing to the wrong CSS folder. After correction, generation throws no warning messages.

    You got lucky there. The CSS probably had links in it so all were reported, fix the CSS link and the rest followed.
