Tom Irons Posted April 2, 2016 Posted April 2, 2016 About This File This plugin will set a cover photo automatically on registrations, front end only!
Cabola Posted April 3, 2016 Posted April 3, 2016 This is 1 default for all members and not an individual per group right?
EmpireKicking Posted April 3, 2016 Posted April 3, 2016 Great plugin, It's an shame that IPB does not have that option. But again you can go into the the core files and change the default image

Joel R Posted May 1, 2016 Posted May 1, 2016 Love this idea. I've been thinking about this ever since IPS v4 was released with the cover photos on the profiles. Can you think about the following enhancement: 1. Randomized cover photos? (Eg. I upload 5 choices, and the system chooses one)

Joel R Posted May 1, 2016 Posted May 1, 2016 Can I ask how the server stores the default cover photo? For example, do all of the default cover photos point to the original source image, or is the source image copied for each user over and over again?
Tom Irons Posted May 1, 2016 Author Posted May 1, 2016 It's not copied. It's stored once into the database and then when a user registers it will set their cover photo.
Joel R Posted May 1, 2016 Posted May 1, 2016 Just now, Tom Irons said: It's not copied. It's stored once into the database and then when a user registers it will set their cover photo. Okay, got it. I do like the idea of default cover photos and default profile photos, since so many of my members don't take the time to upload anything and it leads to a very grey and boring and faceless community. I've had an idea for a long time for "Default Profiles" ... where there would be a choice of cover photos, choice of user profiles, and perhaps even some default profile text to encourage users to replace it with their own. (My thinking is that it's hard to start with a blank box - how do you even begin to describe yourself?? But it's a lot easier to replace and correct something already there). This is the closest thing to the idea, and even though your plugin is very simplistic, I appreciate you taking your time to publish it to the IPS Marketplace.
Subdreamer Posted February 16, 2017 Posted February 16, 2017 This is exactly what I am looking for. One question for those currently using it: Is this compatible with IPS Community Suite version 4.1.18 and up? Thanks!

Tom Irons Posted February 27, 2017 Author Posted February 27, 2017 @klevoclubRF Is that image too big or small? If not then inspect the page to see if the resource (image) is being found.
Tom Irons Posted March 2, 2017 Author Posted March 2, 2017 I'm pretty sure you're going to need a larger image than that.
klevoclubRF Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 Any size not displayed!Perhaps the error lies in the fact that the forum runs on php 5.6.19?

I'm not sure if that's the reason but I do develop on PHP 7, I would make a local install and see if it will work that way.

Sowellinformed Posted October 1, 2017 Posted October 1, 2017 @Tom Irons How is this working these days? I saw this review... ....has anyone had the "repositioning" issue Devrix has had?

PPlanet Posted November 18, 2017 Posted November 18, 2017 I think this plugin has stopped working with 4.2.26.
