Manoel - Random Avatar
 

*OVERVIEW*

This plugin will make a random default images avatar show for all users if the user does not have an avatar. This works in the postbit. It uses the image "images/avatars/patch_images/" by default, which is used in several locations for the same purpose, and works on vB 3.6+ and vB 3.8.x. This is editable in the Admin CP.

Other version for 3.8.x. Click Here

Use images with:

- sequential numbers
- support extensions: gif|png|jpg|jpeg

* INSTALLATION *

1- Upload your images with sequential numbers for you directory images.
2- Import the product XML file (product-mnl_random_avatar) into the Product Manager in AdminCP.
3- Set the options in Manoel Random Avatar.
4- Make sure this add-on is marked as 'Installed' on vBulletin.org!

Thanks friends!!!!

I liked it, tagged

This is something I don't think I need but it is a great idea!

Its not working for me I installed the xml and pointed it to my avatar directory...

Describe what you put in the product options.

I uploaded the XML

what do you mean product options... I set it to a directory that contained images
/images/avatars but it's not assigning images to other members

do you know why?

Hello,

i have just installed your Mod and set path to my images in mod config (images/avatars/avatarpack/ set 235 images and tried to sgnup new user account.

But user shows standard, selected no avatar. Please what can i do another way?

I would like to ask you to modiffy this Mod to randomly select from any images in folder, not numbered images?

Thanks, awesome plugin.

I would appreciate whowing random images in my sidebar and in the forumdisplay template. :)

I will update product!

Doesn't work.

I have the avatar images sequentially numbered 001.gif, 002.gif, etc. Is that the correct way to name them?

I got this error, too.

Please, screenshoot.

does this work with 4.2 ? It says vbulletin 4 above, but the OP doesn't mention 4.2.
I think this plugin is a great idea, and should be default with VB.

Tried this and it doesn't work for me. I don't receive any errors but none of the defaults change.

Work perfect in vBulletin 4.2.x

it did nothing on my 4.2
BTW you may use Random ID instead of numbered images as each avatar have its ID
it will include all extension types and names of images

I can't find "Manoel Random Avatar" in Vbulletin options after uploaded "product-mnl_random_avatar.xml" on pluggin & products.

I'm on Vb 4.2.0

ignore my above message got it worked
it only displays on postbit_display

how to add it for forumbit and threadbit _ _ display to work with last poster avatar module

Thanks

I will work for the new version 2.0 with many enhancements.

Please tick this product as installed!

Looking forward to the update, works nice on postbit v4.2

Hello Manoel, im using vB 4.2.x, and when i enable your plugin, i can see an error message on showthread (any thread page), this:
"Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ':' in /home/myusername/public_html/includes/class_postbit.php(345) : eval()'d code on line 113"

That file:

113 case 'announcement':
114 require_once(DIR . '/includes/class_postbit_alt.php');
115 $out = new vB_Postbit_Announcement();
116 break;
117
118 case 'pm':
119 require_once(DIR . '/includes/class_postbit_alt.php');
120 $out = new vB_Postbit_Pm();

any fix for this pls?

Are all of your images numbered sequentially starting with number 1 and endfing with the number of images, not missing any? And the number of exact images in that directory in settings?

Thanks for reply man, they are named like: avatar1.gif - avatar100.gif
and i had wrong count: 99. actually its 100. So i fixed it and reenabled the Mod. This message still show up after flushing cache. Any idea pls?

I cant say for sure, but you might experiment with the avatar filenames having JUST the number, no text.

ie - 1.gif, 2.gif, 3.gif,..etc.

That is how I have it, and the mod works without errors for me.

Man, i renamed all filess to 1.gif - 100.gif, uninstalled Mod and installed again and set, but this still appears..!

Isnt it any Mod conflict, what is that?

I use alot of mods, and this was so plug-n-play.

Did you change anything in class_postbit before you uploaded?

look in line 113 for that extra ":" in the code.

Maybe re-download and re-upload to your server? Might have got a corrupt file?

(I just noticed that a few ppl have had the same problem. I am wondering if there is a mod conflict. I dont have that problem so I wonder what mod might do that. Have you tried disabling your other mods and seeing if it workes, and then bringing back each mod one at a time to see if one of them makes the problem?)

Hi, thanks for helping. Line 113 is quoted before. There is nothing bad about that. Isue is not caused by class_postbit class_postbit_alt filles, i tried to replace by default ones, clear cache, but still apears. Also i disabled majority of plugins and error goes away only when Manoel avatar Mod is disabled :o

Everything seems to work here, but the images don't show (the image url points out this "http://www.[mysitename].com/forum/1.).

I've already checked the numbers of images and they are all name in sequential number jpg. (1.jpg, 2.jpg....). Everything looks fine in the options.

Looks like it's ignoring what is in the options. Any ideas?

Please check again! It didn't work for me - the avatar is not appear, Vbb 4.2.0 Pl3, although I followed as you said!
Thanks!

would love to see this updated, in desperate need

any update on this for vb 4.2.1 ??? it does not work

It even started working? For me NO. this mod is needed, pls fix

I have same problem. This mod is quite bugy. :)

Not working in 4.2.3. Shame, such a great mod.

Works yes, I'm using in my Forum which is with version 4.2.3. What problem you're having friends?

Avatars not showing. It shows broken image.

When I check the image path it says /images/mypath/1.
No jog, png on the ending. Only 1.
