No Avatar Selected - Display Appropriate Image
 

In PostBit Templates - Postbit

Search for:


<if condition="$show['avatar']"><td class="alt2"><a href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]"><img src="$avatarurl" alt="<phrase 1="$post[username]">$vbphrase[xs_avatar]</phrase>" border="0" /></a></td></if>


Underneath add:

<if condition="$avatarurl == null"><td class="alt2"><a href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]"><img src="INSERT URL TO NO AVATAR SELECTED IMAGE" border="0" /></a></td></if>

This will maintain the flow of your board, by displaying avatars for everybody, but for those that don't have one selected yet, they will get one such as

This is my first (and best) bit of coding, I am an absolute NEWBIE so it'll be great if this is useful to anybody!!

Hi all. I am having a bit of trouble with this one. :o I run version 3.0.3.

I made the necessary changes to the code. But no default avatar symbol. (I used the one shown in this thread, uploaded as JPEG). I made sure all members had avatars enabled and selected "show avatar" in options. But no default avatar symbol.

Any ideas? Thanks.

Anybody? :( No ideas. I am lost on this one and really wanted to get it up and running. It's got to be something simple that I am doing and/or not doing.

What URL are you specifying for the image and what is the full URL of the required image and also your forums?

URL to my forums: http://www.mechanicalminds.net

URL to adminCP: http://www.mechanicalminds.net/forum...eadminister111

URL to default-avatar symbol: http://www.mechanicalminds.net/forums/images/avatars ... or /defaultavatar.lnk

I just cannot seem to get it to come up. I'll keep trying I guess. :confused:

Update:

Well, now I am getting a good link in my web browser to that image. But it is not showing up on my forums???

It looks like your server is down as I can't access your site :(
