Avatar on index
Written by Stoker

A little guide that will show you how to get the users avatar shown on forum index.
I have chosen to place it in the Who is online area, but you can place it anywhere you like.

Open index.php
Find:

Code: Select all

'NEWEST_USER'	=> sprintf($user->lang['NEWEST_USER'], get_username_string('full', $config['newest_user_id'], $config['newest_username'], $config['newest_user_colour'])),

Add after, on a new line:

Code: Select all

'USER_AVATAR'                    => get_user_avatar($user->data['user_avatar'], $user->data['user_avatar_type'], $user->data['user_avatar_width'], $user->data['user_avatar_height']),

You can also see I prefer a larger avatar ....is there a way to make it auto resize so as to not be 150px × 200px
on the bottom of the forum but half those dimensions on the bottom? please.......

[Stoker]

Avatar here is not resized.
Try do a search here for resized avatar, I know it has been asked before.
