Hey

The avatars are no longer displayed on our Forum. If I copy the image url I can see that there is a wrong path
The path is this:

 https://www.igl-home.de/igl-testseite/wp-content/uploads/wpforo/avatars/hallo_598.jpg 

and should be this:

 https://www.igl-home.de/wp-content/uploads/wpforo/avatars/hallo_598.jpg 

what can i do there?

best regards,
Adrian

The uploaded avatars should be at

wp-content/uploads/wpforo/avatars/myavatar.jpg

Both above urls you posted seem wrong.

Have you moved or changed paths of your Wordpress site?

Hi @adriaan,

Please delete your website cache and if you have cache plugin pls exclude wpForo from the cache plugin, also read the below topic about cache to get more info.

https://wpforo.com/community/faq/wpforo-and-cache-plugins/

And a question.

Was your WordPress root \igl-testseite\ folder, did you move your WordPress folder from there?

Hey,

I had set up a test page with wp-staging and it was even called "IGL-Testseite" but why this was now transferred to the live page is a mystery to me. Is there any way to fix it? is there a tool with which I can change that?

thanks for help

best regards

@adriaan,

Please execute these SQL commands in PhpMyAdmin > Your Website Database > SQL tab:

 The red wp_ is a prefix in your case it may be another word

UPDATE `wp_wpforo_profiles` SET `avatar` = REPLACE(`avatar`, '/igl-testseite/wp-content/', '/wp-content/');

Then navigate to Dashboard > Forums > Dashboard admin page, click on the [Delet all caches] button.

Hey

I executed the command, however, without a change. What else could I do?

best regards

@adriaan 

try without these characters (`)

UPDATE wp_wpforo_profiles SET avatar = REPLACE(avatar, '/igl-testseite/wp-content/', '/wp-content/');

or use the plugin Better Search Replace
