Hey beng,

So I originally had my site rooted at /public_html/sub_dir.  I accessed the site via domain.com/sub_dir.  I added a subdomain sub_domain.domain.com to point to the sub_dir.  Problem is, now some of the theme images are pointing to sub_domain.domain.com/sub_dir, which is incorrect.  Any ideas here? Haven't looked into it too much yet, but figured I would ask anyway.

Try clearing the cache

Hi,

ProsePoint probably got confused and still thought it was living on a web server under .../sub_dir. I would suggest you clear your site's cache and see if that fixes anything.

To clear the cache, visit .../admin/settings/performance and click on Clear cached data at the bottom of the page.

If that doesn't fix it, can you provide me a specific url example of this issue?

Hey beng, Thanks for the

Hey beng,

Thanks for the response.  Just before your post, I figured out it was a caching issue.  Clearing the cache via the administrator menu and turning of optimized CSS fixed the problem.

But, one thing I did notice... in my situation, clearing the cache, etc. does not fix the hyperlinks associated with images in stories.  Teaser thumbnails and article pictures still display properly when viewiing the story, but the links are broken.  Not a big deal, but I wanted to let you know.

Hmmm. I don't think there's much that can be done about this one, besides going through and individually fixing each link up.

Since the links are human editable (and they can point to just about anywhere), ProsePoint doesn't try to encode them, and hence, ProsePoint doesn't know anything about them.
