Moved Forum from subdirectory to root now images not loading

I moved my phpBB forum from a subdirectory to the root.
Everything is working file except images are still pointing to the subdirectory URL which has nothing.
How do I fix this?

Force server URL settings:
If set to yes the server settings defined here will be used in favour of the automatically determined values. IS Set To No.

Script Path is set to

Code: Select all

which images?
exactly how did you "move" the board to root?
please provide a link that will show where an image is not working so we can test.

thanks,
robert

Hi Robert


I had the forum installed in /forum
then I physically moved all files from /forum to root directory.
The forum works perfectly fine except the images. See this.

If you see the Avatar file it still points top /forum/images

check your avatar settings in the general tab of the admin panel.

also, check to make sure that your server settings paths are correct after your change.

usually you don't set "force server url" to yes. if it is set to "no" then none of the settings under that will
make any difference.
