Well I finally got around to installing this, and it actually works. I've been trying for weeks to get avatars working (stupid server) but to no avail, but this hack did the trick, thanks!

Will this remove the ability to be able to upload avatars to the database at all? I would like that option avaiable still.

Thanks

How do I undo this query..?

Code:

ALTER TABLE `fragblast`.`user` ADD `avatar2` TEXT NOT NULL;

I adjusted it to the database I wanted to modify but upon further looking it seems this has mess with the way my welcome panel shows avatars..?

Anyhelp would be apreciated, thankyou. :D

yeah itll remove it

to undo the query, replace ADD with DELETE, i think

$DB_site->query($doquery);



echo 'Query successful.<br><font face="Courier New" size="1">' . $doquery . '</font>';



cpfooter();

?>

save it to a file, called runquery.php, upload it to your /admin folder and run it.
any hacker should include this type of extra hack to make everyone's life easy.

some of us will never install phpmyadmin (i dont) just to run little queries like that, when they can be done with vBulletin.

Editing Avatars

I have installed the hack and it works fine ut there is no way to edit/remove an avatar from a user in the admin CP. Any ideas?

Has anyone tried this hack for VB 2.2.8? I'm not new to board hacking but I'm new to VB. My version 2.2.8 does not have a members.php. It has member.php and member2.php.

Also, the reason I am looking for this hack is because 2.2.8 has the option for custom avatars from a different url but it always gives a invalid jpeg and gif error. I'm not interested in hosting my own avatars (ie - having the actual files on my server). I'm interested in letting the users do the custom url avatar only.

I read a ton of threads on vbulletin.com about this subject but there seems to be no clear cut answer to why it will not work. Most of the answers are to fix the regular avatar problem of letting users upload their own or use the ones that the board admin hosts on his own server.

I believe I read something over there that the only way to get custom url avatars to work was to look here at vbulletin.org for the hack.

I guess my biggest question is why would VB put an option in there software that does not work without a hack?
