So here's the deal, I was setting up URL aliasing and I made a big, stupid error. I accidentally put in to alias phpbb3 -> forums instead of phpbbforum -> forums like I should have. Phpbb3 is the directory of my actual forum directory, so it messed everything up.
I deleted the phpbb3 -> forums alias, but all the images (like the button for creating a new topic, etc) on my forum are now broken as they all look for the images in mydomain.com/forums/... instead of mydomain.com/phpbb3/...
I'm trying to figure out how to un-do this. I've completely uninstalled phpbbforum (deleted the phpbbforum directory, removed drupal2phpbb table from database and all rows prefixed with phpbbforum in the variable and system tables in the database) and reinstalled, but the problem still persists.
I have no reinstalled the actual forum itself, but I don't see how that would help seeing as how the forum itself (when used outside of drupal) still works 100% fine.
What is the next step here? At the very least, can anyone tell me how it generates the links to those images? Is it from the database or from some of the template files in phpbbforum? If it's in the database I could try restoring my database to a previous state.
Here is the site: http://www.haloreachbeta.com/phpbbforum
If anyone has any ideas I'd love to here them, I've been working on this non-stop for days and cannot figure it out.

jase951 commentedWhen you say uninstall did you use Drupal's uninstall feature?
You might want try checking that you have emptied the cache properly, go to 'Performance' and hit the 'Clear cached data'.

Vcize commentedYes, I have tried uninstalling both by using Drupal's uninstall feature and by deleting everything myself.
Clearing cached data is always the first thing I try when I have a problem, so I've tried that as well.
Comment #3
Vcize commentedOk, I got it working.
Reinstalling everything, including doing a fresh install of my actual forums, fixed it.
I guess the URL aliasing must actually write something to that directory or that part of the database.
