Test Forum references Production avatars

As in title: the avatar URLs for my test forum reference my production location.  I created the testforum from a backup snapshot of the production forum, which is why this started.


I checked repair_settings.php and everything on the test forum references the test forum as proper.


Testforum is RC5 and Production is RC4. But this has been going for a while.


Is this expected, or is there an issue? Thank you in advance

Also, when I upload a NEW avatar on the test forum, its location is still in the production folder.

did you confirm where the attachments are going in the admin panel? admin -> attachments and avatars -> attachment settings attachments directory

Just checked Attachment settings and that's good. i went to avatar settings and the "server-stored" section had the right path but the "uploadable avatars" directory referenced the production site. Changing that now! I'll mark this as solved but perhaps repair_settings should review all these paths. Or it should be done automatically when i created the test forum. obviously this path needs to be updated manually, which sucks.

Thanks for your help!

PS - I had to make the directory 777 to actually save the file o_O dunno if thats questionable
