I succeded in using this mod with filesystem based avatars, but I had to add a second get_avatar_url (which I named get_avatar_url2 very original) in functions_user.php just forcing it to get the file based one.

By the way, is it right to guess this mod adds as many querys to forumdisplay.php as threads we have listed?

fetch_avatar_url will add a query for every unique avatar it pulls.

does this work with vb 3.7? couldnt find the code in the template...

Got it working for 3.7. Great plugin! Make sure to add $avatar in the threadbit template or else it won't work. Like this:

$avatar<if condition="$show['gotonewpost']"><a href="showthread.php?$session[sessionurl]goto=newpost&t=$thread[threadid]" id="thread_gotonew_$thread[realthreadid]"><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/firstnew.gif" alt="$vbphrase[go_to_first_new_post]" border="0" /></a></if>

Also, some people have some oddly shaped avatars uploaded so you should only specify the width of the avatar in the plugin and leave the height at 100%. It looks better to me.

Any idea how to get default avatars to show for a user?

I also have this annoying problem.

Until something can be done about this, I am going to uninstall.

I am trying to only get this mod to display avatars of a certain group only. Paid Subscribers mainly. It should not display avatars from any other usergroup
