Title: No CSS Loading, Fresh Installation of Elkarte
Post by: fremzy on February 29, 2020, 06:29:11 pm
Hi,

Not sure what I'm doing wrong but my Elkarte forum appears not to be loading any CSS. I did a manual install and everything appeared to go well, no error messages whatsoever. But after installing and clicking on the link to navigate to the forum, I get a page with no formatting whatsoever (see attached image). Can anyone please advise on what I may have done wrong?

Thanks

Hi, check the path to your template in Admin -> Configuration -> Current theme or run repair-settings.php https://tools.elkarte.net/2014/12/repair_settings

Thanks Radu81. I just did all that and it's still the same. I even tried switching the default theme, but still ended up with the same result.

Ok, I tried again. This time, I let the script do the work instead of checking the paths myself. I opted to "reset" and it seems like that fixed SOME things (maybe those were never even affected before, I didn't check, so I don't know). But yeah, the problem still persists. It seems like the style is applied in some places and not in others...

I just used the repair tool one more time. This time, I changed  the URLs to "https" from "http" and it looks like that may have fixed it for me. Thanks so much! Keeping my fingers crossed, hoping it's a total fix. :)

you can use https instead of http if your hosting provides a certificate, but you need to change all paths using repair_tools.php from http to https.

Thank you. It's been holding out since I made the change yesterday so it looks like it's definitely fixed.
