vBadvanced Install Issue

[etinohio]

Hello:

A minor glitch occurred when I installed vBadvanced into our vBulletin web site. I am now having a problem with the post icons in on the front page. Here is our web site:

http://www.authentic-campaigner.com

If you look at the posts that carry over from the forum to the frontpage, there is a box with the red "x" in them that says "default". When I checked the properties of icon1 from the left column, here is what it says:

http://www.authentic-campaigner.com/forum/http://www.authentic-campaigner.com/forum/images/icons/icon1.gif

I don't know why it is doubling up the html code. The icons are fine within the forum itself.

The icons were fine before I installed vBadvanced. Obviously, I did something during the install to cause this problem.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Help!

Sincerely,

Admincp>styles & templates>style manager>StyleVars>Image Paths .. update all image paths

Admin CP => vBulletin Options => Thread Display Options => Show Default Post Icon

Looks like the path was added twice there. Try removing that and it should take care of the problem.

Admin CP => vBulletin Options => Thread Display Options => Show Default Post Icon

Tried that last night. It is in there as http://www.authentic-campaigner.com/forum/images/icons/icon1.gif. Looks OK.

Admincp>styles & templates>style manager>StyleVars>Image Paths .. update all image paths

Tried this as well. No change.

The only thing I can think of is that a hack was done by the previous administrator to the index or similiar file where it already has the "http://www.authentic-campaigner.com/forum" text in there and it is picking up "http://www.authentic-campaigner.com/forum/images/icon1.gif" normally from the templte/design. I've done a search for the text through the index files of both the forum and the main http to no avail.

Thanks very much for the responses, but I'm not quite there yet. :)

Have you tried checking the replacements in vB?

Brian:

Problem fixed. When the icons were updated during the installation, it included the full path:

http://www.authentic-campaigner.com/forum/images/icons/icon1.gif

I changed the path to:

images/icons/icon1.gif

That fixed the problem.

As a side note, the post icons showed up as the red "x" when posting in the gallery itself. The path it was pointing to was within the gallery folders. I copied the folder and brought it over to the gallery folder and that fixed the problem.

Whew!
