vbulletin 3.7.4 & CMPS ...

i was forced to move host less than 2 hours before they had a planned server change (they sent me emails but i was away on holiday). just managed to down load the contents of my /forums folder & an sql database files export before the service was cut.

so i signed up with a new paid host. moved my /forums folder to it. created a new database & imported the database files (after first having done a find/replace on the exported files contents from the old url to the new one).

i changed the config file that comes with CMPS. updated with the new forum path.

still have problems with the forum...

can't sign in
images not showing
some links not working

anyone done this before & can help me out with some ideas on how to sort this out please?

cheers!

did you update the config.php file?
Click to expand...
yes, with the new database access info. i also added the forum path for UNIX for good measure.

i also updated the CPMS config file, as the forumpath had changed.


i can see the portal & forum, but can't log in or see any images.

e.g. the poll images aren't showing, when i check their properties, it says...

Code: 
http://www.xxx.com/bar2.gif

the 'forums/images' etc. bit is missing
 
*** update ***

i uploaded & ran the tools.php options, and it's gone a long way to sorting out my forum.

problem with the CSS though.

i have a default install (blue color).

can someone please post what's in the Additional CSS Definitions (advanced users) for the default style/main css please.

i had stuff in there but it's gone now.

thx.
