photos missing for upload to website

So I am trying to upload photos (to wix) from my macbook. When I go to upload>photos, a very, very minimal amount of my photos show up. Like probably as low at 2% of them or something.

I went into the photos app and they are ALL there...although some seem kind of blurry like they are missing? I tried to copy one to the desktop as a test and it worked, it didn't say it was missing.

I checked my icloud connection and updated that, making sure I was signed in because Mac told me I had to re-sign in.

I ran first aid through disk utility per another discussion I found on here. It did not fix this issue.

Where are my photos for upload? I'm not getting any error messages, they just aren't there in the upload option. I also logged into iCloud and they are also all there as well.

MacBook Pro 13", macOS 10.14

Try the following: before you try to upload photos using the media browser view all photos enlarged in Photos that you want to use. This will download them from iCloud , so they are stored locally. Keep Photos open. Then restart Safari, or whatever you are using to upload. Now the photos should appear in the Media browser.

Are you running out of storage on your Mac ? Then try to free some storage, so Photos can keep more photos stored locally at the full resolution. And close all other applications, when you are working with your photos.
