Want to show user image on the header of every page
 
When a user is logged into my site I want to show their avatar in the header of every page.

I thought it would be a simple matter of retrieving user image from some global variable but after looking at the avatars in the forum, which have src attributes like "image.php?u=1&dateline=1312310668" and did some debugging with netbeans and I can see it is more complicated than that and the avatars are retrieved using the image.php script.

I have inserted a template_hook.user_pic into my header template and I have a plugin that registers the variable -

$template_hook['user_pic'] = xyz

All I am missing is the xyz. So how can I retrieve the image of the currently logged in user so I can replace the xyz with the users image? Cheers.

I always cheat on stuff like that because it's hard to figure out. So in this case I went to includes/class_postbit.php and stole the code (and changed $post to $vbulletin->userinfo):

PHP Code:
if ($vbulletin->userinfo['avatarid'])
{
    $vbulletin->userinfo['avatarurl'] = $vbulletin->userinfo['avatarpath'];
}
else
{
    if ($vbulletin->userinfo['hascustomavatar'] AND $vbulletin->options['avatarenabled'])
    {
        if ($vbulletin->options['usefileavatar'])
        {
            $vbulletin->userinfo['avatarurl'] = $vbulletin->options['avatarurl'] . '/avatar' . $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] . '_' . $vbulletin->userinfo['avatarrevision'] . '.gif';
        }
        else
        {
            $vbulletin->userinfo['avatarurl'] = 'image.php?' . $vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl'] . 'u=' . $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] . '&dateline=' . $vbulletin->userinfo['avatardateline'];
        }
    }
    else
    {
        $vbulletin->userinfo['avatarurl'] = '';
    }
} 

putting that in parse_templates seems to work. And you also need a plugin on init_startup with:

PHP Code:
define('AVATAR_ON_NAVBAR', 1); 

Strangely, the code already has checks for AVATAR_ON_NAVBAR, but it seems to do nothing except load the avatar data into $vbulletin->userinfo[] (but it turns out to be what's needed to make this work).

Anyway, then you should be able to use {vb:raw bbuserinfo.avatarurl} in a template.
