I don't believe you ever mentioned that you were on a windows server (IIS 6.0) :YUCK: . .htaccess files will have no effect at all so don't bother wasting your time there.
Are u erferring to the mozilla issue?

I assume you have already applied the header() fix too.
What fix?

Anyway, have your host set the permissions on the folders as I explained to allow read/write. If they refuse then I would switch hosts, which I would do anyway to get to a *nix host.
They won't set the permissions on my folder as I want. They have a UNIX+WINDOWS hosting which is quite cheap...

Raven Web Hosting would be an excellent choice
I can imagine! It depends non the costs ehehehe You talked about switching hosts. Does this mean that i may have a windows hosting with my provider and a unix one with RWH? Sorry, but I'm quite ignorant...
Without it, users don't stay logged in. If you are not experiencing any problems then don't worry about it.
If they offer *nix hosting then switch immediately. But, if they will not allow you to have control over the permissions on *nix then truly, they are not a host that serious web sites should use.
U're tempting me to buy ur hosting ehehehehe The only thing that prevents me from doing it is my laziness (u know, configuration, etc. ...unless u will take charge of doing the whole job! )

I haven't been experiencing any problems. What do u exactly mean by staying logged in?

Yes, they offer and I 'll have control over the permissions. But I don't know anything about unix... is any technical expertise required when u have a switchable hosting?

Nothing much changes from what you have been doing. You gain more control and have more options available to you under *nix. You can view my hosting packages at

. I can also customize a package if none of those meet your needs. As to moving your site, yes, I will move it for you.
You know what? You might try this. In my original instructions, I say this
Code:
Then on or about line 771 comment out this line
$userinfo[user_avatar] = ereg_replace("gallery/","",$userinfo[user_avatar]);
so it should look like this
//$userinfo[user_avatar] = ereg_replace("gallery/","",$userinfo[user_avatar]);
Instead of commenting that line out, modify it to read this
Code:
Then on or about line 771 modify this line
$userinfo[user_avatar] = ereg_replace("gallery/","",$userinfo[user_avatar]);
to read
$userinfo[user_avatar] = ereg_replace("gallery/gallery/","gallery/",$userinfo[user_avatar]);
Let me know if that works.
Do u think I shall try this one? Consider that when I update Your Info, the broken avatar problem displays in the forum (profile and posts). In Nuke everything seems to work properly...
I repeat my last question: what do u exactly mean by staying logged in? I know users are logged in... at least I can see them in Nuke. Often I don't see them in the forum...

The broken avatar is probably a result of a previous entry as I mention on page 1 of this thread. There is cleanup that must be done when using my fix. Make sure you are backing up all your files and tables as I am not responsible for what happens.
If you are receiving a User Offline status even though they are logged in, then you need that fix.

I think u've found another fix ehehehe
I applied this fix:
Code:
Then on or about line 771 modify this line
$userinfo[user_avatar] = ereg_replace("gallery/","",$userinfo[user_avatar]);
to read
$userinfo[user_avatar] = ereg_replace("gallery/gallery/","gallery/",$userinfo[user_avatar]);
and i don't get any broken avatar! The only problem is when an avatar is uploaded, but this is due to the server configuration we were talking about...

In Site Info block, I see users online properly logged!
Whoa so it seems the fix for the broken avatar has gone a bit muddled in this thread. So what exactly is one to do to fix the broken avatar? I am now having the problem of the repeating /gallery/... thanks for the attention...
