Icy Phoenix

Greetings!

I thank all of you guys who have helped me over the past few weeks!! I truly appreciate the awesome support IP gives!

I have developed a couple interesting problems.

First, when I click on the profile link it take me to the RSS fedd. Here is a pic (notice the URL):



Sometimes it just goes to a blank screen, I'm a bit lost right now.

The second problem is with the chat archive. When I view it, the smilies are missing. Here are a few pics:





I nothiced that the URL is all screwed up. I searched thru a bunch of tables and can't see where the problem is!

It also doesn't let me go to topics when I click on then in the forum. It just refreshes the screen it's currently on.

The last problem is when I try to edit a post. I created a post with a picture and when I click the edit button I get this:



Sorry for all the questions! I appreciate any help you guys can give me!

In the ACP change your site url to:

Domain Name: h**p://***.mtasc.us

Script path: /

Because this works where others don't - h**p://***.mtasc.us ;)

So does this! :P

h**p://***.mtasc.us/images/smiles/icon_mrblue.gif

And you really should have the forum software in its own folder - Not in the public Root. :(

There isn't anything else in the root, so I'm confused why it needs to be in its own folder. Can you explain a bit more?

I'll try changing the URL and report back! :D

EDIT: Tried your solution, cleared the cash, deleted the temp files and history and it didn't work...

Well you certainly have path issues?

If paths are written in UNIX style ./../etc and not VAR style {FULL_SITE_PATH} etc, then the UNIX paths become wrong when the root folder for IP (EG. h**p://***.mtasc.us/forum/) is missing.

Try adding this to the relative path in the ACP:

ACP > Configuration > Site

Smileys Storage Path

Path under your Icy Phoenix root dir, e.g. images/smiles

Then post back the path properties of the the smilie - once you have changed it.

I guess I'm confused as to what you want me to change. Here is a snapshot the User and Forum settings:



As for the site being stored on the root... I host the site on my own server. I didn't think there would be an issue with IIS.

The reason for checking / changing the paths is:

The URL - path in this pic is impossible, and why it is like it is, I have no idea. :(

I am as lost as you are. Here is a screenshot of the table:



Where is the ip_ajax_shoutbox pull it's information from?

I'm not lost and it pulls the info from here:

/includes/ajax_shoutbox_inc.php

What I would recommend is that you create a forum folder in the Public Root:

Server permitting - zip up what you have in the Public Folder and copy / move the zip to your url/forum/ folder and unzip.

Either way, make a COPY of your forum and paste it to your url/forum/ folder, delete the .htaccess file and replace it with a fresh one from IP.

Clean out / Remove any Non-Icy Phoenix files and folders from /forum/

Rename the existing .htaccess in the root of the Public Folder to something else.

Download a backup of your database and edit the Script path: / to Script path: /forum/

Create a new DB and upload the modded SQL

Goto your (FTP - Whatever) url/forum/config.php, edit it to manually connect to the "New" Db

Goto the copy of your */forum/ with whatever browser you use and see if the problem still exists?

This should either answer the problem or create a BIGGER one. ;)

Meanwhile you haven't lost anything, but you have gained a "Test" site. :P

Gotcha! I'll give that a try and report back! At least it's only a copy and paste thing for me!!

EDIT: No change. The only thing that is different is the URL..

http://www.mtasc.us/forum/_/_/www.m...on_mrorange.gif

Well Mate,

It's time someone sent a PM to MG bringing this thread to his attention. As I don't understand why it is adding the second URL to the first. :(

And you can PM him. :mricy:

WOOHOO!! I get to be the guy to forward this on!!

I'm way confused... I'm going to try a fresh install later on. If that works, I'll update the thread!

Thanks for all the help! I appreciate it!

Devildog,

Would you mind editing your topic to be more specific of your problem, please? "Interesting Problem.." is a little vague.

Thanks!

Sorry.. My bad! Consider it done!
