EasyBlog: CSS-override has no access to the linked images

Hello.

I just tried to create an css-override in EasyBlog using the vintage theme.
I did not make any changes in the override styles.css yet, I just copied it into the override-folder.

The override obviously works, but it has no correct access to the button-images in the menu-bar and the default admin-avatar.

Doing this I updated the links (automatically).

For example this link in the original styles.css:

../../default/images/blog-navi-prev.png

became this in the override-file in my template:
../../../../../components/com_easyblog/themes/default/images/blog-navi-prev.png

So for my opinion all images should be found. But unfortunately they are not shown. I attached a screenshot.

I suppose the mistake is on my side, but I don't find it.
I found nothing helpful in the forum or in the FAQ, so I would be grateful for help or advice.

Thanks!
Steffen.
Hi Steffen Schwarzer,

Can you provide us with more information regarding this so that we can take a look and see is it can achieve or not?
#1. Which part/image you want to change
#2. Joomla backend and FTP access
#3. Attach with your image you would like to change to

Hi Arlex,

thanks for your reply. In my opinion I have been clear and two of your questions are already answered:

at #1: please see the attachment of my first post (or better: see the new attachment of this post).
at #3: there has been an attachment in my first post that shows what I mean. For the moment I just want to see your "vintage"-theme unchanged. Please note, that I adjusted the links to the button-images in the override-css-file already, but they are not shown nevertheless.

I attached the same screenshot but now with added red arrows that indicate the missing (buttons) or distorted (avatar) images. So may I ask you to check this first? If the issue cannot be fixed then, I will give you an access to backend and FTP.

Thanks for your support.
Steffen.

Hello Steffen Schwarzer,

Sorry for late reply to this and thanks for take your time to explain this again,

Yes, we actually need your Joomla backend and FTP access to check this.

And where do you stored style.css file in your current template for override?

By the way, do you have take a look of this documentation? (Look at CSS override part)

Hi Arlex,

sorry for the late reply and thanks for your last response.

I considered the style.css in the html/com_easyblog/css simply as an override, not as a completely new style.
Therefore it needs every single image from the default-theme. I copied the style.css from the default-theme into the new style.css, now it works.

Kind regards and thanks for your support.
Steffen
