It was the Joomla/SMF bridge  :-\

Oh! That could be troublesome... Unbridged is advised before moving to another host. Otherwise, it will be problematic. Try to see xenovanis solution. It could work.

tatack

Yes, it works. There was the old path.

In this forum I have loose not only the avatars, but also the forum button images as you can see:

Have you read this? This could be your issue.

Yes, do you think is the same issue?

I have no access to the old ftp, so I can't make the transfers as explained in that link.

FTP could have a lot of problem huh?! For me, I use to zip my site folder into a single file before I downloaded it as backup. I seldom use ftp.

You don't have a backup then? You could upload the attachments from your backup again. Or can't you use ftp on your new site?

I like ftp, just not FileZilla   :P Been using FTP Commander for years now and I'm very happy with it.

I love your username btw  :D How is it pronounced?

Yes, I have FTP. So, can I try to upload again attachments folder without check "Treat files without extension as ASCII file" ?

xenovanis

Yes, that's the idea. The same goes for the /Themes/classic/images directory, as that seems to be affected as well.

I use Filezilla and have never had a problem with it.

Ismail Or Smile? I just add up Abu Fahim so it is easier for people to read it. So now AbuFahim⎝⏠⏝⏠⎠ reads as Abu Fahim Ismail.

Adish - (F.L.A.M.E.R)

Is this resolved? Do you require any further assistance with this?
