no avatar image!

[cam drysdale]

for the profile card if a member has no photo an image saying no photo goes in place.

i think it would be good if an image went in place of avatar if no avatar was chosen :thumbsup:

cause on my forums i have a dotted box around each profile field, andso if no avatar is chosen! you just get an empty box which as its setas 0% width to fit the avatar, it basically just looks like a littlewhite box about 3px big! this would solve it :ermm:

cheers

I'm almost positive you could just make your own, and then write some code to make the "no Avatar" field display an Avatar stating "no Avatar." I think this idea is a bit of a contradiction, since a "no Avatar" Avatar is in fact an Avatar... It just shows that you haven't selected a custom Avatar.

Open /sources/functions.php

Find:

  if ( ! $member_avatar or $member_view_avatars == 0 or ! $ibforums->vars['avatars_on'] or preg_match ( "/^noavatar/", $member_avatar ) )

  {

	return "";

  }


  if ( (preg_match ( "/.swf/", $member_avatar)) and ($ibforums->vars['allow_flash'] != 1) )

  {

	return "";

  }

Replace(only the first one):

return "";

With this:

return "<img src='{$ibforums->vars['board_url']}/style_avatars/noavatar.gif'>";

This might be a nice default feature for some boards. I think this could be added as a setting quite easily.

um to make it valid change:

return "<img src='{$ibforums->vars['board_url']}/style_avatars/noavatar.gif'>";

to

return "<img src='{$ibforums->vars['board_url']}/style_avatars/noavatar.gif' border='0' alt='User has no selected avatar' />";

[cam drysdale]

erm? did you make a mistake in the first post of the code???

[DarkChris666]

um to make it valid change:

return "<img src='{$ibforums->vars['board_url']}/style_avatars/noavatar.gif'>";

to

return "<img src='{$ibforums->vars['board_url']}/style_avatars/noavatar.gif' border='0' alt='User has no selected avatar' />";

Did you read this?
When I said valid, I meant for the output of the image to be valid for xhtml.

[cam drysdale]

you should of said that! :thumbsup:

it sounded as though you meant make it valid, not make it meet W3C Standards!

[DarkChris666]

thought you would of noticed by the changes lol.
