I did the importer to my real server after testing it for 4 weeks and just now I realized that the Users Avatars are not being imported, and if I copy then manually to my new folder, the numbers are totally off, since on my old forum I had ID missing (deleted users??) and on the new forum the ids start a 1 and go up one by one.

How can I match the users avatars?
What was wrong?
Maybe I know what was wrong: the /useravatars folder didn't have permission to execute (was only 666). Could be that?
If this is the problem, what would be a solution?
The site is already open the the users so posts already haven occurred.
I also already change the forum folders name to match the old forum, so will be kind trick to roll back...
Can I import only the users? (or even better, only the avatars?)

If I open the browser and try to see the avatar, I see an error on the path: /forum/uploads//752.jpg (note the '//') but first, the avatars were supose to be at /forum/imagens/avatarsM.

Second, that folder /uploads doesnt' exist on my new forum. It was the location for the old forum.

I've been away for a while but I'm sure Gizmo or another will step in soon to assist. Basically I'm sure it has to do with a redirector script. It should discuss it in the install / upgrade manual as I recall.

I did the hard way, so I will post here if someone else stumble over it:

Per my second post, you see that there was a directory issue, so:
A close the board
open myphpadmin and export the whole table USER_PROFILE
Open it on a wordpad editor and REPLACE all wrong path to the right path.
Save it and import (drop data first) to the same USER_PROFILE again.
So far it's working... smile
