    You would have to change the template for the forum software to change the Living Avatars link your users click to take them to to LA page. Whether anything else needs changing I am not sure, I will need to check the files

    Renaming the folder obviously is the first step. Inside the index file however not many changes are required as most of the system runs internally on the functions files. In the "includes" folder there are a few instances pointing at living_avatars especially for saving the avatar image file starting on line 297 in save_avatar and again in your version of forum software in the session_files folder to pull up your current avatar. There are a few more instances in the admin folder but those are for click navigation purposes, so you may want to change those as well.

    However the next step is any avatars you may current have saved. In the database it saved the file and folder location of each avatar and if you been using living avatars and want to rename the folder, after you make these changes you'll want your users to resave their avatars, otherwise go into the database and rename all instances of living_avatars manually.
