Reply with Quote and Inserting Smilies Issues, very weird

[BoostedK20]

I've had an issue where users have to click 'Reply with Quote' twice for it to work, because clicking once would give a 'loading' icon and never load anything. But users could always insert smilies without a problem once they're replying. However, if I change my Forum URL (Admin CP > Settings > Options > Site Name / URL / Contact Details) from "http://www.boostedk20.com/forums" to "http://www.boostedk20.com/" the Reply with Quote option works flawlessly in one click. However, once you click a smilie to insert it into the message it's unclickable. Mouse pointer doesn't change, and you can't click 'More' to view the popup with more smilies. Can someone help me out? Thanks

Create a new style with no parent:

• Styles & Templates > Style Manager > Add New Style
• Parent Style: No Parent Style
• Title: Default vBulletin
• Allow User Selection: Yes
• Save

Then browse the site using that totally default vbulletin style - do you still have the same problem?

[BoostedK20]

Same problem exists with the new style. Now what?

Are you using stub directories? If so, make sure you uploaded them from your do_not_upload directory to the correct place.

I'm not sure, what is a stub directory and how would I find out? Sorry Lynne, this part is new to me.

Well, do you have anything entered in AdminCP > Settings > Options > Site Name/URL/etc > Forum Component URL or CMS Component URL or Blog Component URL ? If so, you need to read the instructions there.

[BoostedK20]

No I do not. The Forum URL is

http://www.boostedk20.com/forums

When I edit the Forum Component URL as http://www.boostedk20.com/forums and make the Forum URL http://www.boostedk20.com nothing works properly and all forum links bring you back to the home page. So I made the component URL 'forums' and it worked better, but not good enough. Some links still toss back to the home page. Still messing around with it, but I'm not sure what exactly should be done to make it work properly. Maybe you'd know better

You are confusing me - you either have something entered in the component URL area (in which case you need to follow the instructions regarding the stub directory) or you do not have anything entered into any of the component URL areas (in which case you do not need to deal with stub directories at all).

I don't currently have anything there. I read the directions and started playing around with it, but creating subdirectories is messing me up
