Show avatar code?

[Dismounted]

It would not fit in your situation - I was only referring to fetching an avatar for the current logged in user.

dont know if this code may help.

PHP Code:

require_once('./includes/functions_user.php');
$navbar_ava = fetch_avatar_url($vbulletin->userinfo['userid']);
if (!is_array($navbar_ava))
{
 $navbar_ava[] = $vbulletin->options['bburl'] . "/images/misc/noavatar.gif";//this will display a noavatar image if no avatar is used.
} 


the $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] will return the current logged in user but you can use any userid here.

call with

PHP Code:

<img src="$navbar_ava[0]"> 


in the template

Could you share the code please. I am looking to display the user's current avatar, but the code I used on my 3.6 forums before no longer works on 3.7

Thanks... I'm using vBulletin and Wordpress (currently at 3.6, testing 3.7 /w avatar issues) with the Wordpress/vBulletin mod from here - and a boatload of other smaller plugins.

Look in class_core.php (vB_Session class constructor).

Can I do something like this

START PHP
INCLUDE VB GLOBAL FILES
INCLUDE VB USER FILES
ECHO HTML IMAGE OF AVATAR 
ELSE 
ECHO HTML IMAGE OF BLANK AVATAR
END IF
END PHP

Could I do this on an external vB page.

<img src="$vB->avatar_of_user.$extension" alt="" border="" />

And its not only if they are logged in, it will always show the avatar of a user pulling from a forum

See the fetch_avatar_url() function.

[SLR722]

Its not in class_core.php

fetch_avatar_url()

Can you please tell me where it is and an example of how to call it?

PHP Code:

fetch_avatar_url($user="$user");

The reference to class_core.php by me was for putting the avatar in the navbar. I would suggest getting a mass search program to help you find things like this in files.

See the vBulletin API.
