Revert template af_firstpost and upgrade to v1.4 (if you haven't already)
You're right. I'm a fool, I thought I applied it last week, must have been the wrong template, lol! Thank you!

yes. I installed a fresh 3.8.2 test site and applied your mod. Worked perfectly. Installed VBA and everything goes to h***. The image paths are all messed up as you can see in the pic. I've spent a lot of time trying to figure it out and can't. When VBA is installed it updates all of the image paths to the actual url. The image paths when I view the source all have http://www.yoursite.com/Categorys/images/gradients/gradient_tcat.gif instead of http://www.yoursite.com/Forums/images/gradients/gradient_tcat.gif

Hi Bananalive, First of all - fantastic plugin!

I am having a problem with the new version, it is making all of my inline images revert back to links/thumbs site wide. If I disable the plugin (which I really don't want to do, because we love it!) the inline images come back straight away.

Thanks for your help!
