Ok, here's the problem...


I have a custom style for my site that uses an image behind the navbar...
The image works on the forums, but not on the homepage
The image is controlled through the Styles & Templates--> Style Manager--> Additional CSS Definitions in the Admin CP shown below...


http://www.fishinjunkies.com/me/css.gif

Now, I can make it work on the homepage by adding "vb" to the circled partial url in the pic above... but that makes it not work on the forums... because the forums already call for the vb directory.. so it adds an extra vb directory to the link and the image is not displayed.

I tried entering the full url, but then it didn't work on the forums or the homepage.. anyone have any ideas?

You can view my site at http://www.fishinjunkies.com and http://www.fishinjunkies.com/vb

(A new domain is propagating, if that one stops working you can use.. http://www.neropolis.com )

Try /vb in front of the URL.

There's no reason why adding /vb in front of the URL shouldn't work. Are you sure you're not pulling from cache or something?

when I add vb or /vb it adds an extra vb or /vb to the url, so yes, it makes it work on the homepage which is missing the vb in the current url. The homepage is trying to pull the image from here:

http://www.fishinjunkies.com/bluethumbimages/layout/menu_bgb.gif

So, when I add the /vb it corrects the problem on the homepage, however it also adds the /vb when the forums try to pull the image.

The forums currently try to pull the image from:

http://www.fishinjunkies.com/vb/bluethumbimages/layout/menu_bgb.gif

Which is correct, but when I add the /vb to make the image appear on the homepage, it adds an extra /vb to the url that the forums use to pull that image, giving me this:

http://www.fishinjunkies.com/vb/vb/bluethumbimages/layout/menu_bgb.gif

See my problem?

Ok, nevermind.. I tried entering the full url again and it worked this time for both the homepage and the forums. The only thing I can figure is I made a typo the first time I tried this.

Thanks anyway Brian. :)
