Geeklog Forums

Hi,

I have/had a Geeklog site at http://www.spazthecat.com. Everything was working fine but I've decided to move my web site over to Google Apps + Blogger. As part of the transition I'm going to keep my old site available for a little while longer but not located at spazthecat.com. It now will be accessed at it's actual address with my hosting provider which is http://esc05.midphase.com/~spazbla3

I changed the site url info in my Geeklog config.php and everything works fine except none of my photos appear (Media Gallery) nor do any of the other pictures (navigation icons, etc...) associated with the website. There is just a question mark (in Safari) or the text associated with navigation icon (Firefox). The errors displayed in Safari state that access to those images are "forbidden".

Any suggestions for fixing?

Thanks,

Andy

Andy,

I'm willing to bet you have a hotlinking solution implemented in your .htaccess file or through your cPanel. Basically this says don't serve up images unless the referring URL is http://www.spazthecat.com. Since you changed the URL, the access to the images is being blocked.

If I try to reference an image directly on your site I get a 403 Forbidden error, so that tells me they are there, but the web server says I can't see them.

Thanks!
Mark

Thanks!

That was it. I had forgotten all about setting that up.

Much appreciated.

Andy
