Not a bug Custom Avatar Import Problem

[fattony69]

When importing, the attachments works with this setup:

[path]/vbattachments

but custom avatars show up as this, but gives an error that they don't exist:

./customavatars

It works if changed to this:

[path]/customavatars

Are you saying the customavatars directory needs the absolute path specified, and when the relative path is given it does not work?

Assuming that is what you mean, could the answer be to specify the full path?

Basically (without giving my info out):

/home/servername/public_html/vbattachments works.

./customavatars gives me an error, but if I change to

/home/servername/public_html/customavatars

It works.

So, I believe that is what you said.

This is expected, if your XF is in a different location from vB.

We simply print out the value that is stored within vB for the path, so if it's using a relative value, it may not work.

Good to know. Thanks for clearing that up.
