The placeholder image for Events disappeared after the latest ES update.

I cannot remember the file path to add a placeholder, could you let me know?
Hello Richard,

Did you create an override for the picture? By default, they are stored in the following path (system)

/media/com_easysocial/avatars/defaults/event/

If you want to create an override for it, you could upload it into

/templates/JOOMLA_TEMPLATE/html/com_easysocial/avatars/event/

Sorry Mark, i should have said it was a cover placeholder.

I just remebered i placed the user/group/pages overrides in /templates/JOOMLA_TEMPLATE/html/com_easysocial/covers/user, group and pages but for some reason put the replacement cover in the main ../media/easy_social/default/covers/event folder and swopped the default.jpg name with my own filename for the placeholder, so on update the original deafult.php was obviously put back in place.

I have copied my placeholder file over to the events override folder and all is fine now.

Dozy me, sorry.
