Taurus, what kind of avatar is it? Custom or stock? Stored in filesystem or database? The code cycles through and checks different scenarios so knowing the type of avatar will help troubleshoot the problem.

It is a custom avatar, and stored in the filesystem. Thanks.

Ok i have my avatars stored at /forums/images/avatars/

This is looking for them at images/avatars/

How can i change it ? Without having to move all the avatars to the path for this

Can i change the code where its asking for these ?
if so where, cheers

Requests :

Make it so you can select it by usergroups so you can show just your members
Add reputation stats
Thread stats
Not to include any forums with permissions - Mainly due to i have certain sections in my forums only for admins, this shows i am most active in there, i dont want people knowing this

Just abit more info on each member really

Nice mod, however the avatar goes outside of the boundaries. It’s not neatly between the lines.

Just uploaded 1.1.0
Adds reputation
Adds Threads with link to search for user threads
Adds ACP option to disable reputation
Adds ACP option to set max width and height of Avatar
Adds ACP option to display below navbar or below Active Users
Will only display most active forum if user has permissions to view, will hide field if user can't view any of the forums

This should also fix the problem of looking for the avatar in the wrong directory, let me know if it doesn't.
