Nothing much changes from what you have been doing. You gain more control and have more options available to you under *nix. You can view my hosting packages at www.ravenwebhosting.com . I can also customize a package if none of those meet your needs. As to moving your site, yes, I will move it for you.

You know what? You might try this. In my original instructions, I say this

Code:

Then on or about line 771 comment out this line 


$userinfo[user_avatar] = ereg_replace("gallery/","",$userinfo[user_avatar]); 


so it should look like this 


//$userinfo[user_avatar] = ereg_replace("gallery/","",$userinfo[user_avatar]);

Instead of commenting that line out, modify it to read this

Code:

Then on or about line 771 modify this line 


$userinfo[user_avatar] = ereg_replace("gallery/","",$userinfo[user_avatar]); 


to read


$userinfo[user_avatar] = ereg_replace("gallery/gallery/","gallery/",$userinfo[user_avatar]);

Let me know if that works.

Do u think I shall try this one? Consider that when I update Your Info, the broken avatar problem displays in the forum (profile and posts). In Nuke everything seems to work properly...

I repeat my last question: what do u exactly mean by staying logged in? I know users are logged in... at least I can see them in Nuke. Often I don't see them in the forum...

The broken avatar is probably a result of a previous entry as I mention on page 1 of this thread. There is cleanup that must be done when using my fix. Make sure you are backing up all your files and tables as I am not responsible for what happens.

If you are receiving a User Offline status even though they are logged in, then you need that fix.

I think u've found another fix ehehehe Laughing

I applied this fix:

Code:

Then on or about line 771 modify this line 


$userinfo[user_avatar] = ereg_replace("gallery/","",$userinfo[user_avatar]); 


to read 


$userinfo[user_avatar] = ereg_replace("gallery/gallery/","gallery/",$userinfo[user_avatar]);

and i don't get any broken avatar! Wink

The only problem is when an avatar is uploaded, but this is due to the server configuration we were talking about...

In Site Info block, I see users online properly logged!

Whoa

so it seems the fix for the broken avatar has gone a bit muddled in this thread. So what exactly is one to do to fix the broken avatar? I am now having the problem of the repeating /gallery/... thanks for the attention...

I would agree. Morpheus tried that last fix at my suggestion. I am closing this thread and I will summarize what I believe to be the fixes.
