Something is wrong attachments

[JWL]

I have opened a ticket with VBseo

I thought the original issue was with Lighbox and VBSEO

this issue is different and has to do with the pathing ofthe attachments

I have done changes and updates to correct this to no avail

Issue is

With VBd Lighbox enabled the attachments loads lightbox but pulls the picture for some odd reason from the VB Attachments folder.

For instance below is the Path of the image before clicking on it. If you cut and past that link it shows the correct image.

http://www.norcalsportriders.com/forums/events/attachment.php?do=fullview&attachmentid=11

But if you clic on the image with Lightbox the URL is shown and the wrong photo

http://www.norcalsportriders.com/forums/attachments/f18/11d1270077435-wed-bike-night-4_4_002_medium_160-jpg

Notice that the /Forums/EVENTS is missing from the 2nd Image

VBseo is done with the look and has determined it is a Pathing issue

This issue with vBSEO has come up a few times before, and it's basically due to their software replacing paths it shouldn't be (turn vBSEO off, remove their .htaccess file and you'll see things work fine). I was able to create a plugin for someone else to work around this, but I don't remember the exact code I used or have a copy vBSEO to test things with. If you'd like to submit a support ticket though I'll be glad to see what I can do.

Correct, but this time it was a tad different.

It was configuration.

What I had to do to make it work within VBd was as follows

Attachment File Path = /home/Mysite.com/public_html/forums/MYattachments

Attachment URL = (BLANK)

Following the instructions under Attachment URL

The full URL to the folder in which you wish to store attachments.
Note: If you store your attachments below the document root for security purposes, you may leave this blank and it will use the attachment.php file instead to display your attachments.

This made it work along with adding in the htaccess

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !/(admincp|modcp|clientscript|cpstyles|images|MyDynamics)/

as well as adding
/forums/MYDynamics/attachment.php
attachment.php
In the VBseo Exclude Pages option

I thought I had this right. Even though I turn off VBSEO, the pathing image is still off.

It is picking up the images off the /forums/ not the /forums/attachments that I hard coded

THis time it is then Cat Listing mod in the main page

Did you turn off attachments in the category listing module since you posted this? I tried to take a look, but I'm not seeing any attachments in that module.

Brian No

Sorry, I think I have a new admin whom is making changes, need to stop that, even though he owns the forum

Hey Brian

This Image thing is a disaster

The Dynamics is Posting the (INCORRECT) image on the main page if I set or allow in the entry elements the attachment tag.

If I allow this then an image appears in the main page with the proper path, and ID but is a different image

Would you mind submitting a support ticket? I know I've resolved this for someone before with a fairly simple plugin.

Sure, The issue is working now, but if I run any maintenance in vBd it blows
