Mini Mods - Last Poster Avatar

Info

This mod ads last posters' avatars next to their names on Forumdisplay pages. I've just finished a section of one of my bigger mods to come, and thought that some of you may just need this little enhancement on their forums. If so, feel free to download and test it.

Features

Not too many features for now, it's a pretty straight forward mod. I'm always open to your suggestions though.

- Display last poster avatars in threadbits on forumdisplay
- Display last poster avatars in forumbits on forumhome and forumdisplay
- Admin settings to enable display of last poster avatars in certain areas or disable globally
- Set an avatar size to best match the layout
- Choose an alternative avatar display on forumbits
- Zero database queries to keep things running smoothly

Installation

Import [phpdesk.com]-product-lpavatar.xml via AdminCP > Plugin System > Manage Products > [Add/Import Product]

Mod Support

- Do not forget to mark as installed to qualify for further assistance
- A small donation would always be welcome to support further development of this hack (Support Developer)
- I'll do my best to listen to your comments and suggestions as long as time permits

Do let me know if anything else comes up, I'll be more than happy to troubleshoot and get back to you with further fixes until this becomes a stable mod.

Thanks, Daryn, I have removed the outdated lines from the mod description, you're right

But if there is two digits after (_), for example:

http://www.domain.com/forum/avatar/customavatars/avatar8701_59.gif

The link will be like this:

http://www.domain.com/forum/avatar/customavatars/avatar8701_5.gif

There is no avatar because the last (9) is missing and will not include in the link!

Thanks dear

Any fix for this bug?

[BlueCheri]

I think it's not working properly.

G!

Does not work in 4.1.10

[cdnbacon]

I would also appreciate an update for 4.1.10, or a redirect to a working mod that does the same.

Hi guys, I got involved in a few large projects since the beginning of the year, I had to put development of this and my other vbulletin modifications on hold for now, please hold on or if any of you are willing to contribute to any of the fixes required in the meantime, feel free to drop me a message and I'll gladly add your codes to the package.

Upgrading to V4.1.11 it is working fine except for the default guest avatar. It displays userid # 127 for the avatar instead. Not a big deal, but something to look at when updating this mod. Great mod though and one that our members love.

[Conehead555]

Perfect in 4.1.7 but no "default avatar" option like in your screen shot.

[lordtopcat]

Installed on 4.2. I'd like to use the non legacy version with the avatar on the left and everything else on the right. When I select this option, the following happens. (see attached)

The legacy version works fine, as it should.

Any suggestions?
