Background images not showing

I have installed this template on localhost, but the background images arent showing at all. I installed also the sample data and changed the permissions. help?

If you are on windows download newest template

Having the same problem, downloaded the latest version, sill no template images showing at all. Styles on website show 3, template has 5, none of which work. See attached image. This is very disappointing.

IIS 7.5
Joomla 2.5.9

Its not an issue with permission here. I installed and tried the Joomla 3.0 and that seemed to work ok, not perfect.

Can you use chrome browser "Inspect Element" function to inspect image URLs?

Hi there. Hope you're well.

I'm experiencing the same problem with the Joomla 2.5 template (hotstart) version, which I purchased & downloaded 2 days ago. Certain "styles" elements do not appear to be showing, such as background image, article background image and article headings' background image. (Font styles load correctly...problem appears to be images-related). See attachment screenshot.jpg for reference.


The Joomla 3 version works great, both on local development environment (Windows) as well on live hosting server (Linux).

The J2.5 version of the template works perfectly on my hosting company server (Linux / PHP 5.3.23 / Apache 2.2.24).

The J2.5 template problem only exists on my local (Windows) dev environment. I've tested using both XAMPSERVER as well as WAMPSERVER. My current environment is Windows, using Wampserver ( Apache 2.2.22 / PHP 5.3.13). Thus, problem appears to be a Windows-hosted environment issue (I'm speaking under correction here...apologies if I'm mistaken).

I did an "inspect element" using Chrome, which shows the following incorrect css (url) for Body background :
background : #efebf5 url(/testtemplateshot_wine/images/bg.jpgpg) top center no-repeat;

(see attachment css.jpg for reference)


As you can see, the URL is missing forward slashes ( / ), as well as a typing error in filename extension (has an extra "pg" in it - bg.jpgpg. My background image URL should therefore be :
background : #efebf5 url(/test/templates/hot_wine/images/bg.jpg) top center no-repeat;

Please advise if you require any additional information.

Your urgent attention to this will be GREATLY appreciated. (I need to have the site up by tomorrow )

Thanks

Open index.php of template , above this line:

$template_path = $this->baseurl.DS.'templates'.DS.$this->template;


put this:

define( 'DS', DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR );
