I have a forum under the path wwwroot/forum/
I've tried to make a light version of the forum, and have placed a modified forum in the path wwwroot/light/ Both forum apps are reading data from the same db. There is only one problem... I want user postet images to appear in both normal and light forum. E.g: An image that is placed here: wwwroot/forum/uploads/neitakk/image01.jpg, don't appear in the light forum, because the address now is wwwroot/light/uploads/image01.jpg. |

You can get that to work is one of two ways;
1. You create a new dir [wwwroot/uploads/] and change the code in your two forums to go fetch from this dir, you may use ../ to back up the directory structure (needs parent paths enabled in the server) or use a absolute URL [domain.ext/uploads/] to get the images. 2. You don't do any of that, and simple use the uploads from one of your forums instance, say you use the [wwwroot/forum/uploads/] then you need to change the code in your [light] version to go fetch the other location, again you can back dir with ../ or use absolute URLs. ------------- :: http://www.mylittlehost.com/ - www.mylittlehost.com |

Did you set the upload path in the admin panel?

Hi!
I figured it out before this thread was accepted by the admins. But thanks for the replies... The solution was to change the upload path in admin menu from "uploads" to "../forum/uploads". |
