What am I doing wrong?

I'm trying to create a hack which displays member's avatars in memberlist.php. So, in memberlist.php, where it says this...

PHP Code:

    if ($userinfo[receivepm]) {
      eval("\$userinfo[pmlink] = \"".gettemplate("postbit_sendpm")."\";");
    } else {
      $userinfo[pmlink] = " ";
    }

    eval("\$userinfo[profile] = \"".gettemplate("postbit_profile")."\";"); 

...I changed it to this...

PHP Code:

    if ($userinfo[receivepm]) {
      eval("\$userinfo[pmlink] = \"".gettemplate("postbit_sendpm")."\";");
    } else {
      $userinfo[pmlink] = " ";
    }

    if ($userinfo[avatar]) {
      eval("\$userinfo[avatar] = \"".gettemplate("postbit_avatar")."\";");
    } else {
      $userinfo[avatar] = " ";
    }

    eval("\$userinfo[profile] = \"".gettemplate("postbit_profile")."\";"); 

After I uploaded the new memberlist.php, I edited my memberlistbit template, and stuck $userinfo[avatar] where I wanted the avatar to show up. But, nothing happened! Can anyone show me what I did wrong here? :stupid:

hmm im not sure why but maybe try to use a variable w/o array
ie $avatar
and are u sure $userinfo[avatar] is actually the avatar?

try this:

PHP Code:

$theavatar=getavatarurl($bbuserinfo[userid]);

if ($theavatar!='') {
      eval("\$userinfo[avatar] = \"".gettemplate("postbit_avatar")."\";");
    } else {
      $theavatar = " ";
    }

    eval("\$userinfo[profile] = \"".gettemplate("postbit_profile")."\";");

$[high]avatarurl[/high]=getavatarurl($[high]userinfo[/high][userid]);

if ($[high]avatarurl[/high]!='') {
      eval("\$userinfo[avatar] = \"".gettemplate("postbit_avatar")."\";");
    } else {
      $[high]userinfo[avatar][/high] = " ";
    }

    eval("\$userinfo[profile] = \"".gettemplate("postbit_profile")."\";");

$bbuserinfo is the info of the user viewing the page.

And [high]avatarurl[/high] because that's what postbit_avatar uses.

Also using getavatarurl() adds an extra query whenever its run, so in a list with lots of members the page will really slow down.

Anyway, here's how you do it.
In memberlist.php, add this:

    if ($userinfo[avatarid]!=0) {
      $avatarurl=$userinfo[avatarpath];
    } else {
      if ($userinfo[hascustomavatar] and $avatarenabled) {
        $avatarurl="avatar.php?userid=$userinfo[userid]&dateline=$userinfo[avatardateline]";
      } else {
        $avatarurl="";
      }
    }
    if ($avatarurl=="" or ($bbuserinfo[userid]>0 and !($bbuserinfo[showavatars]))) {
      $userinfo[avatar]="";
    } else {
      eval("\$userinfo[avatar] = \"".gettemplate("postbit_avatar")."\";");
    }

right after this:

    if ($userinfo[homepage]!="" and $userinfo[homepage]!="http://") {

Now replace this:

  $users=$DB_site->query("SELECT *
                          FROM user,userfield

with this:

  $users=$DB_site->query("SELECT *,avatar.avatarpath,NOT ISNULL(customavatar.avatardata) AS hascustomavatar,customavatar.dateline AS avatardateline
                          FROM user,userfield
						  LEFT JOIN avatar ON avatar.avatarid=user.avatarid
						  LEFT JOIN customavatar ON customavatar.userid=user.userid

And now place $userinfo[avatar] in the memberlist template.

Oh, that's perfect, FireFly! Thanks for helping out a PHP-newbie!

This doesn't seem to display custom avatars tho... can anyone post a mod that will allow this to show them?

OK, i'm probably going to get smacked down for asking a stupid question, but where do you put $userinfo[avatar] in the template???

Thanks :cheeky: h

that worked great, I was trying to edit the wrong template.

only problem is, it throws the columns off one row. Did I miss something?? or do I need to change another template??

Thanks again!
