Just viewing that image, I can tell where most of the issue is. Ya didn't upload everything. Because I see text links instead of the images. So that means you probably poo poo'd the install.
Recopy ALL the files over this time. Reimport the product (checking the overwrite option) and then reimport the laguage file. And you wouldn't know about the loading issue fix with the var token if you didn't read the readme. I just forget how it's worded in there...
But I think you are running apache and don't have mod_security configured.
I did everything you suggested and it did fix the icon problem. However, still stuck on Loading.... I edited the mgc_cb_evo.js file and add at the top var SECURITYTOKEN = "0";
What else can we try? Has anyone been able to make this run on vBulletin 3.6.5?
Yes, it is Apache. However, I'm unfamiliar with mod_security.

Hehe, if adding the security token doesn't fix. Remove it. And yes, it runs on every version.
I gotta hit the search button (hint) to find the answer. I posted the mod security answer a few times, but I can't remember the edit. Gimme a min and I'll find it and post. Apply the mod security edit I reply with, if it doesn't work, re-add the var security edit.
MOD_SECURITY on linux boxes disables this plugin from working...
edit/create .htaccess
Add
Code:
<IfModule mod_security.c>
SecFilterEngine Off
SecFilterScanPOST Off
</IfModule>
Place this in the root of the forum. Done.
Well, no luck. However, I want to say thanks for all your help.
I added the above code the .htaccess located in my forum root. I also tried the var string both ways. I tried it with it in the file and tried it removed from the file in conjuction with the mod security fix. No luck in either combination. Still just says "Loading...."
I guess it just won't work over my vB version and my server backend.

Pfft. The hell it won't. Welcome to the world of servers. Nothing is ever a quick fix. You could easily have overlooked something, edited a wrong file etc.
If you want, PM me a temp admin account, and FTP account and I can see if I can get it fixed quick.
