I noticed also with the default theme the little triangles you get between the sections in the path

eg FireBoard Community >> Fireboard Addons

as in the case above on this forum...
are not showing on the new default theme. is this correct or is my installation totally messed?

I can see that the >> arrows ..i mean images of the arrows..are located in:

www.***.com/images/M_images/arrow.png

So check if you have the images located in that folder also? And if you dont have this folder (i dont have the beta version installed..so i dont know which folder it should be..but try to locate it to a different foldert.. move those arrow images to this folder..and check again?
Just sharing a thought..im no expert of these things..sorry

yeah nah there is an arrow.png in that folder...

Hi, in the look & feel section of Fireboard configuration panel , what are your settings for the image sets.

Do you have your image set as default or to the image set of the theme color you are using.

Try default image set if you don't have it set to that. The arrows show up for me in 1.0.1. using any default theme color.

If you are using the default theme settings then I guess something is not right there ...

everything is set to default... i have reinstalled the component that didnt help, i have uploaded the default template files that didnt help... argh
