No Avatar Selected - Display Appropriate Image · **Released**: 10-19-2004

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!!

Up now. Maybe I was FTPing or something.

I have the URL to the default avatar as : http://www.mechanicalminds.net/forum...aultavatar.lnk

Is this layout wrong?

I got it. I got it. Yeahhh!

For some reason, none of the methods I have found here worked on my forums. Which, this isn't a complaint or a 'diss, it is probably because mine are so heavily modded.

Either way, I searched over at vB.com and found some instructions by Da Man (Jake Bunce). When that guy throws some code, you know you are in good hands. Gotta love Jake and the gang!

Mechanical Mind, can you provide the link to his instructions? I can't get this to work in 3.0.8.

Installed in Posbit Legacy.. Here are the directions if you are using Posbit Legacy (My VB version: 3.0.8)

Find:

PHP Code:


			
&nbsp;<br /><a href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]"><img src="$avatarurl" alt="<phrase 1="$post[username]">$vbphrase[xs_avatar]</phrase>" border="0" /></a>

                </div>

            </if>

ADD DIRECTLY UNDER:

PHP Code:


			
<if condition="$avatarurl == null"><a href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]"><img src="http://www.LINK TO YOUR IMAGE.gif" border="0" /></a></if>

Notice the removal of the <td> tags from the original post.

Works great! Cheers

and here it is for your memberinfo template.

search for:

Code:

<if condition="$show['avatar']">
				<td><img src="$userinfo[avatarurl]" alt="<phrase 1="$userinfo[username]">$vbphrase[xs_avatar]</phrase>" border="0" style="border:1px solid $stylevar[tborder_bgcolor]; border-top:none" /></td>

			<else />
				<td>&nbsp;</td>

add below:

Code:

<if condition="$avatarurl == null"><a href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]"><img src="./noavatar.gif" border="0" /></a></if>

Now it will we show in the memberinfo too.....

have fun with it

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
