Site URL Change

Neal-UK · March 9th, 2009, 06:05 AM

I had my forum on www.talkaircraft.com/forum/ but moved it to the root so the domain is now www. talkaircraft.com/forum.php

The gallery stayed the same on www. talkaircraft.com/gallery/

When I visit my gallery, the breadcrumb gives me the following link:

http:// www. talkaircraft.com/http://www.talkaircraft.com

Also, my images do not show on forumhome either, even if I add the tag to forumhome.

What other settings do I need to change?

Talk Aircraft

Make sure your usergroup settings are selected to view the forumhome images

Talk Aircraft Gallery

As far as your breadcrumb

in your vb settings have you confirmed your forum url is entered correctly a full url not relative like this

Talk Aircraft

Thanks, don't know why I missed the images thing, duh!

As for the breadcrumb, in vb forum url, i just have:

Quote:

http:// www. talkaircraft.com

What should it be?

well the only problem I can see.. is your forum home url..
you have http:// www. talkaircraft.com /forum.php
and that somehow sets itself in front of the categories and images also...
Make sure you have the right path to gallery AND gallery images in the vbgallery settings in your control panel.!!!

Because when I click one of your categories.. it gives me: http:// www. talkaircraft.com /forum.php / category/
but that looks more like a vbseo issue... make sure you adapted the .htaccess file to the new forumpath!!!!

Yeah that has just changed, so must be a vBSEO issue with the forum urls, was working fine earlier. Sent a ticket to them.

However, when all was working before, the breadcrumb still points to the double domain. I have http:// www. talkaircraft.com set as forum root url in vB settings.

The forum.php was a vBSEO issue, which is now sorted. Love their quick support.

Still showing double url in breadcrumb though.

Your breadcrumb should get its base url from your vb options unless something else is overriding it. Your forum url is entered as you posted above with NO SPACES?

Neal-UK · March 9th, 2009, 03:04 PM

Yeah, which is really weird. If you would like to register and i'll give you admin access, please PM your name once you do register via here. It could be my error, or a bug, who knows.

Chuck S · March 9th, 2009, 03:12 PM

You can send a url and admin login to the contact us link in the header.

At least thats what I know about vb is that its base breadcrumb should be the forum url under their options.

Neal-UK · March 9th, 2009, 03:17 PM

Okay, thanks Chuck S, message sent with info.

Chuck S · March 9th, 2009, 03:19 PM

No problem

Neal-UK · March 9th, 2009, 03:20 PM

Ah har, it's a style issue, i've missing something in the style header template or something. It works fine on other styles.

Just trying to find it now somewhere...

Neal-UK · March 9th, 2009, 03:22 PM

Sorted, it was an url error in my styles navbar breadcrumb, edited the template now. Thanks for all the help guys.

Chuck S · March 9th, 2009, 03:25 PM

Have a good day. so you had a custom style with a custom url declaration that can do it.
