Somehow the user-uploaded avatars seem to be gone. Attachments were gone to, but reappeared - the path in Admin/Forum/Attachments and Avatars/Attachment Settings was wrong.
I can't figure out where the user-uploaded avatars were saved. So I changed the path in Admin/Forum/Attachments and Avatars/Avatar Settings to /attachments, but did not work. I can now upload a new avatar and it appears, but the old stuff will not be displayed.
In Admin/Forum/Attachments and Avatars/Browse Files I can view the attachments by clicking, but not the avatars, I get a 404. Same is true for Thumbnails. So somehow it gets misstranslated.
Can you guys help?
I tried removing the cache, repair_settings tells me everything is fine.
if you changed the avatar directory away from the default of using the attachments dorectory -- then we don't know what you changed it to.
Repair_settings.php doesn't find any changes because the default of using the attachments directory is acceptable and therefore, not recognized as something that needs to be repaired.
I suggest that you look on your server and see if you can figure out which directory you created and chose to put avatars into
I tried that. In /attachments are files of the correct size, but nowhere else.
But, changing file path to /attachments does not work for avatars (but did for attachments).
Would the avatars be saved as normal pictures, or as those weird hashes in /attachments?
they are hashed in the attachments folder for security.
Thanks. Then they MUST be in /attachments, but why does pointing the path there not work?
