bigpelican Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 hi, i have an existing forum running (latest version 4.1.8.1). i decided to do a change of domain. after moving to new host and change of domain, i've corrected the details in conf_global.php, and rehash the code in the constants.php. My forum icons are now broken. Uploaded images are still fine. It seems that the template cache is still caching the previous icons' url. How can recache the template? the article at the following is not updated. www.invisionpower.com/support/guides/_/maintenance-and-server-configurations/transferring-community-to-a-new-server-r20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tnn Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 You can try: System-> Support-> What do you need help with?-> Something isn't working correctly-> Continue After continue it will delete the cache. It calls it "data cache" but I think that may do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel F Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 You should also take a look at your storage settings to see if you're using a hardcoded Custom URL ( ACP => System => Files ) . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder why there isnt a button for us to explicitly click on to clear the cache. 13 hours ago, Daniel F said: You should also take a look at your storage settings to see if you're using a hardcoded Custom URL ( ACP => System => Files ) . I've already make sure this url is correct too. It was the cache problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do I force profile photos to use the new domain? Clearing the cache and setting a custom URL doesn't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, everything is fine except profile photos, it uses the old domain. It's on a test install, is it tied to the domain on the licence? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will need to update your license though as it is against your license to not use the test installation license on a test install. You may need to go into ACP -> System -> Files and ensure that each of your Storage Settings are correct and pointing towards your test install directory. Plus clear the Custom URL.

Whoops, forgot about this. It's using the testinstall licence, the storage settings are correct, no custom URL. $INFO['board_url'] is correct in conf_global.php, the board still uses the old URL only for profile photos. Uploading a new profile photo fixes it for that user. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
