I know this is a simple fix but I have no idea how to fix it.

I changed domain names awhile back and some of the images (mostly icons/buttons) that were on the older domain, aren't showing up on the new domain (after I let the old one expire). So when I click the properties of the icon it shows, for example http://www.ABC.com/forum/images/icons/icon8.gif, but domain ABC has expired so I need to some how get it to show up on site www.123.com. I hope that makes sense.

BTW, I know the path isn't correct, I just need help in correcting it

Check the paths in admincp > post icons > post icon manager

I've done that and changed the domain name. I've got the icon to show up in the icon manager but still not on the site.

Link for where we can see the post icons? And did you do the same for the smilie manager? And did you check style manager > stylevars and check the image paths there?

<a href="http://www.unlimitedsportsgaming.com/forum/" target="_blank">http://www.unlimitedsportsgaming.com/forum/</a>

To the right where a thread is posted. The properties show the domain for the old website

I see some of them. It looks like when you edited them in the post icon manager, that you only edited some of them.

I edited the one that isn't showing up, which is the notepad looking icon.

And exactly what did you enter for the path?

instead of http://www.ncaaunlimited.com/forum/images/icons/icon1.gif, I entered http://www.unlimitedsportsgaming.com/forum/images/icons/icon1.gif

Did I do it wrong?

You shoudln't be entering http://etc.etc at all. Just enter the path from the forums directory - images/icons/icon1.gif

I've done that but still having the same issues. Not sure what's going on at this point.

Did you do a search through the options page in your admincp already for that url? I would have assumed you had, but now I'm wondering if you left the default post icon as the old url (thread display options).

That fixed it! I really appreciate your help.
