Smiley File Name Change/Missing Smileys after Update?

Post by Gambid »

Hey guys,

I just updated last night from 3.3.10 to 3.3.11. Today I checked the server log and found a lot of 404s, so naturally I thought I forgot something, so I checked. Am I blind or did the file name of some of the similes change, while the reference to them did not?

I see that the smileys here have the urls and are displayed correctly but my themes do not. prosilver was definitely replaced with the 3.3.13 version.

Any ideas?

I have no idea if the files changed but the update process doesn't include deleting the images folder. Even if they did change it wouldn't make a difference.

5.Delete the following files from the package:

The config.php file

The files/ directory

The images/ directory

The store/ directory

6. On your website, delete all files from your board EXCEPT for:

The config.php file

The ext/ directory

The files/ directory

The images/ directory

The store/ directory

The styles/ directory
