Avatar in Showthread Template · **Released**: 08-24-2002

I am using a seperate style for one forum and it's read only except for the person posting (like a blog) and I wanted to know what code could I use in the Showthread Template that would pull the avatar from the user who posted the thread to show in the top.

I have tried a few differant things but nothing seems to work.

Any suggestions.

Mike

If I understand you correctly, the best I can think of is moving:

Code:

$post[avatar]

Above:

Code:

<table bgcolor="{pagebgcolor}" width="{tablewidth}" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0"><tr><td width="10"><img width="10" height="1" src="{imagesfolder}/space.gif" alt=""></td><td width="100%"><!-- spacer -->

But I reckon thats not what you're looking for, sorry.

Thanks for replying.

I tried the $post[avatar] originally but it didn't seem to work in that template.

I also tried an exact url similar to this http://mysite.com/forum/avatar.php?userid=$thread[postuserid]

That also didn't work.

Anybody else wanna have a go at it.

Here is a LINK to one of my blog pages. I am just trying to insert the avatar at the top next to the user name.

cheers
Mike

That should work!! the $post[avatar] , its default with vB -_-

Anyway, I cant remember the code, but add $post[avatar] above the forum title-Would look nice. Sorry if I cant help more, I dont understand why that Avatar code doesnt work:S (Btw, doing this in postbit template, right?)

Doh!!!! I am big dummy

Stupid me, I made the request in this post totally wrong in the beginning.

What I mean is I want to include the AVATAR in the SHOWTHREAD Template.

....doh....

Oooooh!

Thats why it doesnt work. Sorry, methinks you need some PHP editing

But I think you should just stick with HTML and add the avatar to the top of that lovely postbit
