I have search the forum, and I can't seem to find anything that seems to fix this.

On my cmps main page, the icons for 'new threads' just appear as red x's. I've went into my admincp, and verified the URL path.

for the 'item status' path I have this
http://www.caraudiocentral.net/forums/images/statusicon

but when I check the properties on the page, it seems to be pointing too.
http://www.caraudiocentral.net/images/icons/icon1.gif

seems like it's missing the /forums/ directory for some reason.

Where do I go to change this?

I did notice the other day, that when someone posted a new poll. That the poll icon was working ok? So not all the paths are wrong.

I hope someone has an idea, because I don't know where else to look.

Thanks
Chris.

Upload the install file, go to it in your browser, and select the option to update your image paths. If the script is unable to update them for you then you will need to edit the URLs manually through your icon manager to include the full URL to each icon.

When you say 'icon manager' do you mean in my admincp under the style manager? or something else?

I checked in the style manager and the full URL is listed for each category.

Admin CP => Post Icons => Post Icon Manager

You'll probably need to edit your 'Show Default Post Icon' option under your main vB settings to point to the full URL as well.

hmm, not sure what's going on.
I uploaded the install file, and verified all the paths and re-ran it, it said it had updated all the paths. After doing this, I did notice that a couple images were working (question icon and Thumbs up) but the new post icon still looks like it's still pointing to the wrong location.

I also went into the icon manager verified that the full URL is listed, and it is.

Where is the 'Show Default Post Icon' option listed at? I don't see it, but I may have just overlooked it.

Thanks again
Chris.

Under your main vB options.

Found it, and that seems to have fixed it.

Thanks for your help
