is there a way to do this through a template edit?

I can't remember 100% but I believe there is something about Avatars in the How-to forum

I believe there is a line you can add to config.php allowing you to call a User's Avatar without the need of a query...

i need something i can do with templates though, because im working on a design i plan to sell

and most people dont wanna have to do file edits u know

[Chris M]

Then the answer is no, not without a plugin or a file edit

Either

PHP Code:

define('AVATAR_ON_NAVBAR', 1); 


in config.php

OR

fetch_userinfo_query

PHP Code:

if (THIS_SCRIPT == 'index' AND !$vbulletin->userinfo)
{
    $option |= 2;
}

No, it is not a file edit.

[Chris M]

lol i just do add plugin, and add that?
then add avatar to forumhome?

[Andreas]

Basically, yes.
But I think you will also need another Plugin on Hook forumhome_complete to work out if it's a default or custom avatar, and if it's saved in the filesystem or database.
