Display Custom Avatar Outside Vbulletin

[TMR Bac]

I did some searching and couldn't find an answer so I figured I'd try a post.

Has anyone successfully found a way to display a logged in user's custom avatar when they are on a website's page not part of vbulletin?

Right now I'm including the global.php file and can successfully pull a member's info like username, id, etc. outside the forum.

I can't for the life of me figure out if it's possible to display a custom avatar.

This should do the trick.

<img src="$post[avatarurl]" $post[avwidth] $post[avheight] alt="" border="0" />

Thanks, but it was a no-go on both a non-forum page and inside the vbulletin header file.

Do you have that working on your own site?

Also, the only include or anything I'm doing on the non-forum pages is including global.php. Is there anything else I need to set or call to full establish the forum environment outside the forum?

I'm thinking yes because on a previous version of vbulletin the "who's online" included people anywhere on the site with just including the global.php file. On this latest version, that isn't working anymore.

Use can use fetch_avatar_url() to generate the URL.

Thanks!

I'm fairly new at these types of php commands.

This is off.. what am I doing wrong?

$avatarurl = fetch_avatar_url();
echo "<img src=\"$avatarurl\">";

Please look in the API documentation to see how to use the function.

Thanks. I understand the variables I need to plug into the function, but I don't understand the syntax I need to get the result to display on the page.

array fetch_avatar_url (integer $userid, [boolean $thumb = false])

Go into functions.php and see what the function returns.

There is a functions_user file and there is fetch avatar functions in it.

My problem is I'm not familiar enough with syntax to figure out exactly what I should be pulling from there to put on my php page to get the avatar to display.
