I've recently added a new skin to my vBulletin forums. Everything looks and displays fine in the forum, but when I head over to my main page powered by vBadvanced the header logo doesn't display. (The link still works though.) I can't figure out where I go to fix this. Any suggestions?

Does the header logo work when in the forums?

Yes it does. If you'd like to see:

Go to your styles, and for your Title Image use:

/forums/fB_Dark/misc/header750x100.png (basically put "/forums" in front of it..)

/forums/fB_Dark/misc/header750x100.png (basically put "/forums" in front of it..)

Done, but it didn't fix the problem. Here's what I've tried so far:

header750x100.png
/fB_Dark/misc/header750x100.png
/forums/fB_Dark/misc/header750x100.png
http://genrefinity.rpmfilms.com/forums/fB_Dark/misc/header750x100.png

It's strange that the forum displays the graphic properly but vBadvanced won't.

When you view the source for the home page see where it's trying to pull that image.

Simply look for "fB_Dark/misc/header750x100.png". If it doesn't have the /forums before it, it will look in the /root/fB_Dark location.

Also have you tried "./forums/......" ?

I did try ./forums/ but that didn't work either. Good suggestion though.

Here is what is listed in the source:

.header {
background-image: url(fB_Dark/misc/header750x100.png);
header-repeat: no-repeat;
width: 750px;
height: 100px;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
float: left;
}

I assume the bolded section is what you're referring to. No matter what I change the Title Image link to it doesn't appear to affect this.

Some styles have a custom variable.

Go to the "All Style Options" page.. Go all the way to the bottom, and look for any variables for the path. Some styles use replacement variables.

At the very bottom is this: No replacement variables are defined for this style

Fixed! In the Additional CSS Definitions section is where the problem was. I updated the paths in there and problem solved!

Thanks for recommending the variable idea Ski. If not for that I wouldn't have seen the Additional CSS section and on a whim scanned through it.
