You can still see the problem even without viewing a profile though. I'll fill out a support ticket. Thanks.

My avatar only works because I reuploaded it.

[Cool_Rice]

The avatars are pointing to /forums/image.php?u=6&dateline=1113245737
And do see the dateline # in the customavatars table.

[Cool_Rice]

Ok I see them all in the customavatar table. As for your instructions, I followed them to the letter and am still having the problem. Both before and after uploading the files again, I see this list come...

I just went into phpmyadmin and the Avatar table has no rows... does that mean I lost them all? I usually backed up by saving the database in adminCP. Does that backup not save avatars?

[Cool_Rice]

any ideas?

[Cool_Rice]

Hmm. That maybe it's related to the problem i'm having at the moment. Everyone's custom avatars are not showing.

I think that just happens if someone doesnt have an avatar set.

[Cool_Rice]

I recently upgraded to 3.7.1 and now all of the avatars are missing. The avatar storage is set to db, and the system is referring to the avatars there, however they are not showing up.

Hello,

*note* this is a question about restoring a forum, not about hacking * I know hack questions are for vbulletin.org! ^.^

I had someone hack my forums to make a forum...

[Cool_Rice]

Ah ok thanks very much. How about linking to my old db from the fresh install of vb? like editing the config file to point to my old DB...

Thanks again

It would make sense that you can restore a backup made from vBulletin, in vBulletin.. hmm

[Cool_Rice]

Admin Control Panel (vBulletin 3.0.1)

If I cannot do it from Cpanel, can I just link the newly installed forums to the old database?

[Cool_Rice]

I still don't see it. I can back it up, I can back it up to the server, or i can "Help CSV backup of single database table". But I dont see any option to restore.

[Cool_Rice]

Wait. I read in another post that you can restore your backed up database (done from Cpanel) through CPanel?? How? Where?

Thanks

[Cool_Rice]

I've installed vbulletin into another directory on my server and to a new databse. Then I realized that you can't restore it based on the backup file generated by vbulletin. So now I am wondering, can...
