change url/domain - broken images

Recommended Posts

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?

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.

This works ! Thanks!

I wonder why there isnt a button for us to explicitly click on to clear the cache.

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.

This solution worked for me too! Thank you!

How do I force profile photos to use the new domain? Clearing the cache and setting a custom URL doesn't work.

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?

Nope, the license does not effect your installation in that manner. 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.
