Uploaded Avatars Not Showing

[jeepwrangler2k]

I just checked again with my guest login screen and the my avatar as I'm logged in as admin is still not showing but instead just that little page icon or avatar instead.

Oh I see you changed the path to /home4/underion/public_html/avs so I went into cpanel and created that avs folder in the public_html folder but it still doesn't work because the avatar is still not showing up when I re-check it.

Did you move avatars from /attachments to /avs as per Lex's link?

Should be working now, avatars are loading from /avs.

Yes I believe I did unless you'd like to try it yourself to be sure?  WAIT - I just checked in again as a guest and now all of a sudden it's working - I can see my avatar just like that...   what did you do to fix it?

[jeepwrangler2k]

One last thing - is there a way I can get rid of the TP or tinyportal help screen that's showing up for all my users or at least make it so only admins see it?

It is removed in TP 2.0.1...

[Sir Osis of Liver]

Ran index.php?action=admin;area=manageattachments;sa=moveAvatars, it appears to do nothing but actually moves the files.  You should configure TP to only display on front page, it's annoying to have it on every page.

TP 2.0.1 installs as a package but won't install without errors under smf 2.0.18 that I've tried so far unless I'm doing something wrong?  That's why I'm still am on 1.6.9.

UPDATE: I was able to remove the TP help page with a mod called Remove Help from menu.zip

[Sir Osis of Liver]

I'll have a look.  Do you have a current backup of forum and database?

[jeepwrangler2k]

The previous .gz file is still here on my local machine but we may need to make a new one. Does that include the forum or only the database?

[Sir Osis of Liver]

You should back up both before installing/uninstalling mods.  You only have four installed, wouldn't be a big deal to revert to clean install if things go badly.  I'll uninstall TP 1.6.9 and try installing 2.0.1.

[Sir Osis of Liver]

Install Error: - please install a version of php greater than 5.6.0

You're running in php 5.4, you need to upgrade to php 7.  Should be able to do that in cpanel -> software.  SMF 2.0.18 supports 7.4, I believe TP 2.0.1 does as well.  I run my forums in 7.2.

I tried running https://undergroundmusiccompanion.com/upgrade.php but I get the sorry not found error and when I look in cpanel there are no upgrade.php files.  How do I get it and ftp it to the server?

[Sir Osis of Liver]

No, you don't run upgrade.php.  Log into your host cpanel, look in Security section, there should be a button to select php version.

[jeepwrangler2k]

I did but there is no button in the Hostgator cpanel security section for php.  Just SSH access, manage API tokens, IP Blocker, Hotlink protection, SSL/TLS, and SSL/TLS Status buttons.

But under the Software section there is something called the MultiPHP Manager. Is this it?

[Sir Osis of Liver]

Going offline shortly, won't be back on til late tomorrow.  I've reinstalled TP 1.6.9.  If you can pm cpanel access (url/user/pw) I'll have a look.

Log into your host cpanel, look in Security section, there should be a button to select php version.

I misspoke, that should be cpanel -> software.

Yes, that should be it.

[Sir Osis of Liver]

Ok, TP 2.0.1 is installed.  Gotta go.

Using the MultiPHP manager I was able to install php 7.4 via this Set PHP Version per Domain
Select the domains that you wish to change from the table, then apply a PHP version from the list. (PHP 7.4 ea-php74).

That's it?

  You should configure TP to only display on front page, it's annoying to have it on every page.

Trying to figure out how to do this with no luck so far.

UPDATE: Figured it out, sorry.  Went into TP and Panels and checked this option: Hide left panel when in forum?

I guess that closes out my issues. BIG Thanks to all.

BUT there's a new problem.  When the left panel is hidden in the forum it no longer shows up at all for anyone at any time. 
The first time I tried this it worked when you were in the discussion area or category topics and then would reappear when you went back to the main menu, but now it doesn't even do that at all.

Any ideas?

This topic is getting a bit hard to follow, and the original issue is fixed, so I would suggest opening a new topic for any new issues.
