hey peeps,

well im usually phpnuke guy - but i thought id give mambo a try.

first of all looks good but its not going well.

im using the Torquebiz template and im trying to update my header with my own logo.

now ive renamed it and all - and im trying to FTP it - but nothing i keep getting an access denied 533 (or something like)

now i know it isnt my ftp - as it works perfectly with my php website.

ive even tried using my cpanel - file maanger - thats saying it has overwritten prvious "bigheader" file - but doesnt actually do it

if i try to delete the file im getting the same thing in both FTP and C-panel

any ideas would be great, as i like the way mambo looks

but if its this complicated to change a header.....

thanks

RavenLife

*UPDATE*

i have even unzipped the file - copied and pasted my logo over the old one
rezipped it, upload it (after deleting the old one)

and still the header is the same

i really dont understand this

well i solved this by uninstalling mambo and reinstalling it

opening the zip file of the theme

changing the pic

rezipping

uploading to mambo

it now works

I had thee exact same problem, Raven. And so did someone else I know. We at first did the work-around that you did (rezip the file and reload the template). And, like you, we knew that it wasn't our FTP program causing the problems. For us it turned out to be the webhost. We had to ask them to look at the Templates folder and set the permissions for us -- don't ask me why, but for some reason it just wasn't sticking with our ftp programs. Once they did that, we were able to drag and drop the individual image or css files into the template folder without having to hassle with reloading the template file. So, I would recommend talking to your webhost on this one...

Hope that helps
