Yes. You may need to edit the hook global_start which contains the function to fetch the avatar from the username. PM me your forum url and I can get the it done for you as well.

Thanks for the reply. There is no hook global_start, but only the following:

Code:

forumbit_display
threadbit_display
search_results_postbit
search_results_threadbit

I can handle changes myself, so Thanks.

I just wanted to know what hook to edit to add my custom url!!

Sorry my bad and that hook is for 3.x Version of this plugin. For 4.x each of those above hooks has the prefix of bburl as follows.

Code:

... $vbulletin->options['bburl'] . '/' . $thread[lastposteravatarurl][0];

You can replace

Code:

$vbulletin->options['bburl']

To your choice of prefix for your custom avatars.

fxdigi-cash · #**275** 05-13-2014, 02:10 AM

I think I did it. I had to omit some part of the hook code to make it work on my custom domain.

I will post the method if anyone wants it..

Thanks...

not to worry, you are right about the way how to do it... That's almost what I did...

I did it like this:

From this:

Code:

$vbulletin->options['bburl'] . '/' . $thread[lastposteravatarurl][0];

to This:

Code:

'' . $thread[lastposteravatarurl][0];

Thanks again

Does this mod have any options?

Also, can we set a default image if the user has no avatar?

For default avatar use this mod:

Well that was officially the most in-depth, difficult thing I've ever done as admin/owner of my forum.

Thanks for the awesome step-by-step guide. You are a Lamen's dream!

I shall now sleep until Xmas. PHEW!

obglobal.net · #**280** 08-05-2014, 12:53 PM

How do I go about adding only the "Last Post By" avatar, and leaving out the avatar of the member that started the thread?

Great mod, BTW. Thank you
