I remove that image.png everytime along with the code it never worked for me even when I tried on my server and a few others.

Does your server have GD? If not then that's probably why, or maybe you didn't change the file to have your forums full path?

[DementedMindz]

yeah I had gd on every one its what I use for when new members sign up to create the random font and image. Yeah I edited the png but it never worked no big deal though its not hard to remove the code from that page.

Derek you ever figure out what was up with the emails? when it sends a email it sends this..

Site Name: Array[sitename]
URL: Array[url]
Description: Array[description]
Username: Demented

[derekivey]

Hmm, try editing the toplist_email phrase that is in the Email Body Text phrase group, and put curly braces { } around those variables, and see if that fixes it.

I changed mine to:

A new site has been submitted to $vboptions[bbtitle]'s Toplist. Please check it and if it looks ok, validate it. Here are the details of it:

Site Name: {$vbulletin->GPC[sitename]}
URL: {$vbulletin->GPC[url]}
Description: {$vbulletin->GPC[description]}
Username: {$vbulletin->userinfo['username']}

To validate it, login to your AdminCP, and click the Inactive users link on the left under Toplist.

Hope this helps

Hi

Did a upgrade to 3.6.2 and the latest version of Toplist and have just noticed the rating stars are not showing up in firefox where they use to work, they work fine in IE. Anybody else having this issue?
Cheers

What happens when you right click and click properties, and then go to the URL of the image directly?
