Hi.
First, great plugin. I really enjoy it!
I've just upgraded from 1.4 to 1.7. And I use WP 2.1. I've a couple of small problems. After the upgrade 'latest post' isn't showing anymore.. I receive a mail when someone has written something, but latest post doesn't show.. And yes, it's checked in Managment that it should show on frontpage..
The other thing is avatars.. I couldn't upload avatars in 1.4, and I still can't in 1.7. But it shows me an errormessage now, which tells me that 'target folder cannot be reached'.. I have permissions 777 to the avatars folder, but still.. Any ideas?

The only reason I can think of for you not seeing the recent post list is that your credentials used to login do not match those in the plugin options. Is your login ID correctly shown in the options? First thing to check.
As to avatars - this message literaly means (as sent back by the server) that it was unable to either locate or open the folder. If you feel like having a play with the
define('SFAVATARS',….
path setting in sf-includes.php it might be instructive to us both. Obviously permissions look good so it can only be a path problem I would have thought. Any chance you could do that?

Hmm.. That solved the avatar problem.. I changed the path in sf-includes.php.. It listed the correct path from where Wordpress was installed, but it was missing the folder in which WP was installed.. So when I typed manually, it worked just fine.. My bad, and thanks for a fast reply..!
About latest post, somethings funny.. The login ID match up, and a couple om my users have told me about the same problem, that unread posts doesn't show on the frontpage.. But then.. Out of the blue, the list with posts was there.. Amazing..
I guess there's nothing left to say but thanks..!

Well - good news except getting the avatar path correct.
Can you tell me what your path arrangements are please? The path setting for this was simply assuming that 'wp-contents' is always going to be from the WP root. Do you have something different that I need to support?

Sure.
When I first installed WP, I didn't install it at the main site.. Instead I installed it under a catalog called i.e. Blog.. So when the avatar upload bounced back earlier, I edited the path to i.e. this:
define('SFAVATARS', 'Blog/wp-content/plugins/simple-forum/avatars/');
And then everything worked out fine.. Wp-contents is placed at the WP root, but WP isn't installed in the domain-root..

OK got it. So basically your path is the equivalent to:
domain.com/blog/wp-content…. etc
I'll have to check the best way of picking that up. Path trouble is always a problem to sort!
Thanks for the info.
