Big Performance Tip: Specify a Custom Avatar Directory
Martine M:
I got the avatars moved and ran sql
--- Code: ---UPDATE `smf_attachments` SET `attachment_type` = '1' WHERE `smf_attachments`.`ID_MEMBER` != 0
--- End code ---
But avatars of people who uploaded them don't show anymore, table prefix is the same.
I did it all at my test forum so no harm done.
Martine M:
it's solved.
I made a mistake filled in twice the directory of the specific avatar, instead of once the url.
I'm going to do this at the live forum now and let you know if things speed up.
searchgr:
thank you
Martine M:
It did speed up, pages load good but It is still slow with posting.
Changed some other settings now, so I hope that will help to.
Or maybe it is the host to although they say everything fine at there end.

If anyone is still helping with this thread, I was wondering what I can do about the avatar directory. Here's the problem: when I select the option to upload it to a specific directory, as is recommended, the page does not allow me to actually enter that specific directory into the box below this. I've clicked on it, and nothing happens. I can't type in it, and can't add anything to it in any way. Does anyone know why this is, and how I can fix it?
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.
