Hi there, pros!
I've created a new style. And I tested it many times at localhost. It runs perfectly. But when I upload to web host, the path of images folder has been changed automatically.
For example:
Before: http://domain/forum/mystyle/statusicon/forum_old_lock.gif
After: http://domain/forum/mystyle/statusicon/%20/forum_old_lock.gif
Even I created a folder name " " (space), the images didnt appear.
Why has images folder's path been changed after uploading to host?
Please help! :confused:
Thanks in advance! :(

do you have a space in your folder's name?
if so, then take out the space, you shouldnt have spaces in your folders
but if not, then there might be something wrong with your ftp program u are using

When i connect by ftp , i see this folder's name is : statusicon
But when i load my forum,images don't load , i copy image location and i see statusicon%20 . I don't know what happened with my new style :(
I tried to rename my folder's name to "statusicon " or "statusicon%20" but it don't work.
This is a part of my .xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<style name="hirufm (fluided)" vbversion="3.6.8" product="vbulletin" type="custom">
<templategroup name="StyleVar Special Templates">
<template name="imgdir_button" templatetype="stylevar" date="1166809290" username="hiru" version=""><![CDATA[styles/hirufm/buttons]]>
</template>
<template name="imgdir_misc" templatetype="stylevar" date="1166809290" username="hiru" version=""><![CDATA[styles/hirufm/misc]]>
</template>
<template name="imgdir_statusicon" templatetype="stylevar" date="1166809290" username="hiru" version=""><![CDATA[styles/hirufm/statusicon]]>
</template>
<template name="imgdir_poll" templatetype="stylevar" date="1166809290" username="hiru" version=""><![CDATA[styles/hirufm/polls]]>
</template>
<template name="imgdir_rating" templatetype="stylevar" date="1166809290" username="hiru" version=""><![CDATA[styles/hirufm/rating]]>

ok your uploading your images to "myself/statusicon"
is there a folder in your ftp that is called styles?
if so go to styles, then go to hirufm and the click on statusicon and upload ur images there
because i read - [CDATA[styles/hirufm/statusicon]]
thats just a guess tho, dont get mad if im wrong lol
edit: but either way, nothing will happen if i was wrong, so dont be afraid to try that out (just be sure not to replace any images you dont want to)

reexport your style xml from your localhost.
Upload all images to correct locations on your server
Install xml file on server
see if it does the same
