Smileys turned into red crosses in vBGallery

[trifletraxor]

I have 7 customized smiles added to my vBulletin forum. 4 of these turns up as red crosses in vBGallery - which looks pretty bad from a layout perspective.

What's the issue here? How can I fix this?

Likely the image path just needs to be updated to be fully qualified.

If you modify the smilies in your ACP the path is likely something like "images/smilies/abc.gif" so you just need to make it fully qualified like "http://www.yoursite.com/forums/images/smilies.gif" instead.

Brilliant! That fixed my problem.

Thanks KW802!

I think this is what I need to do since the smilies in my vbgallery installation are broken.

The path it is trying to find the smilies is located in my vbgallery directories. The smilies I want it to use are in my vbulletin directories. How do I change the path for the smilies in vbgallery to the vbulletin smilies?

Yes you would correct any paths to full urls and you should be fine. Do what is noted to do in post 2. That is your vbulletin smilie manager.
