I did that but my buttons are still not working.

Yay, I downloaded SmartFTP and was able to upload the entire folder of images within a few minutes, with only a few clicks! Thank you SO much! Then, I went and found the Image Path section in my admin CP, and made sure they were updated. But, nothing is showing up stil. Waaaaaahh! :( I tried with and without public_html at the beginning of the image file path and neither made a difference. I've double and triple checked the file paths...not sure who my FTP is - it was part of my hosting package through siteground, and the SmartFTP seems to work just fine with it, but still.....waaaaaah!

:(

This can be very frustrating but we'll figure it out!! I'll probably become a regular at this forum. LOL Nice people that are willing to help.

Most of the time your path will be as simple as this example:

Quote:

skin/buttons
skin/statusicon
Where you replace 'skin' with the folder name of the skin.

Oh my word, it's like the heavens opened up and angels sang when I clicked again and saw my whole forum skin working!!!!

:D :D :D Thank you SO SO SO SO much, everyone - what a wonderfully helpful and encouraging group!

Here's what I did - downloaded the free SmartFTP program (LOVE it, tho I feel a bit like a NASA engineer watching it all rolling along..lol ), then in my admin cpanel, double checked the image paths (3rd big block down) against the SmartFTP open in another window. I thought it was all kosher, then realized the images were in an "upload" folder that wasn't in the image path.

I added "upload" to the image paths, but it still didn't work. So I right clicked on the "x" where the images should have been on my forums, to see what the scripted image path was, obviously did not include "upload" on there, so I went back to SmartFPT and did a super simple drop and drag move of the folder where I'd uploaded the images, to match what the script image path said. Viola!

I made these fresh for you all! :D

do you have a link to your site where you are installing this?

akoj 09-17-2007 05:35 PM

The site looks great. If I could give you one word of advice that I learned the hard way though............three parent skins is a lot to maintain for a newbie if you plan on adding any mods. I would choose your favorite and learn your way around things a bit more before opening all three of those to the public....

and on a completely off topic note...Smacklan, are you going to be around today to make any customizations?? I am looking for a skin but cannot decide for the life of me what I want!

Racecar 09-17-2007 05:41 PM

Congrats purple... Hopefully I am on the right track now also. Thank you all again for the help.

I will be later this evening :) I have some new ones that are unreleased for sale just yet (dark ones) but are on display on my site. Alien and Amazonia are their names.

Racecar 09-17-2007 05:49 PM

Yes, it's www.theflirtingshack.com

I have the files uploaded but still having trouble.... I'm so frustrated. Thank you for your help. I really appreciate it.
