Is there an "approve avatar" facility?
What I mean is, is there a facilty to ensure that the avatar does not appear on my forum until it has been seen and approved by my admin. So it would be in the queue pending approval by my admin, and the avatar would not display on my forum until my admin have approved it.
Does it have that facility? And if it does not, do you know of any avatar/gravatar plugin that does have that facility?

Hi Jan_d,
I fixed the tab name problem by modifying augments of add_profile_tab() in bb-avatar-upload.php.
// line 173(bb-avatar-upload.php) add_profile_tab(__('tab-title'), 'edit_profile', 'moderate', 'avatar-upload.php','Avatar')
tab-title: A string that you want to show in the profile-menu.

If you want to show as 'Benutzerbild' in the profile-menu, modify augments like this.
add_profile_tab(__('Benutzerbild'), 'edit_profile', 'moderate', 'avatar-upload.php','Avatar');

I've read the comments and it seems this plugin has great features but it still doesn't have gravatar integration, when it does I will install it right away. Keep up the good work. ;)

Excuse me if my english isn't very good.

He leido los comentarios y parece q este plugin aún no se integra con gravatar, cuando lo haga lo descargaré inmediatamente. Continúen con el fabuloso trabajo

hi

I'm using this avatar upload plug in, but the avatar's appear below each post.
how can i display them in the sidebar with the posters name/details?
here's a thread as example: http://theblackkeysfanlounge.com/forum/topic/blakroc
using mysty theme
currently i have the avatar upload size set at 150 x 150 px, which i know is too wide for the existing sidebar.
so ideally i'd like to constrain the already uploaded member avatars and move them to the sidebar.
or i guess widen the sidebar and keep avatars at 150 x 150 px.
help...

A lot of you are having problems with Avatar Upload, and the fact that you can't get to the upload-page '.../profile/Username/avatar' - the solution is to open the file 'avatar-upload.php' in the root-dir of bbPress.

Line number 7 must be removed, dimmed out.
```
/*
This file is part of the Avatar Upload plugin
*/
require_once('./bb-load.php'); // load bbPress config
//bb_auth(); // logged in?
bb_repermalink(); // Fix pretty-permalinks
```
I think that bb_auth is an old function from bbPress 0.8.x

I've repaired the blank page error by putting the avatar.php file inside your template folder inside bb-templates instead of my-templates.

Commenting the line 7 of root/avatar-upload.php as DanielJuhl just pointed out worked for me.
(// bb_auth();)
Thanks a lot.

@danniellsen I'm not sure what works for you :)

I'm hoping for advice about how to move the avatar to the sidebar, rather than under the post.

anyone know how?

Same problem several others are experiencing. The "Upload Avatar" link redirects to the front page. The folder permissions are set to 766, which is writable to all. Files are in correct places.

Suggestions?

I am trying to get the avatars to show up on the profile page and by posts, and have found the instructions. However, I don't know "where" in the .php file to paste those codes, and also exactly what part to include. I tried it without the ` marks outside the code, so pasted in the <> and all between. That didn't work, so I tried taking off the <>, which didn't work.

So my two questions are, exactly what part of the code do I paste into profile.php and post.php (include the `'s, the <>'s, etc. and also, where in those files do I post the codes? Or, does it matter on what line in the php files I paste the code?

Thanks!

Toni

Code instructions below...

a) On the user's profile page (profile.php template).

<?php avatarupload_display($user->ID); ?>

This grabs the avatar info file directly from the current user's profile information.

b) On each user's forum posts (post.php template)

<?php avatarupload_display(get_post_author_id()); ?>

PS In case you are trying to do this as well, the post.php file is inside the folder with templates. I pasted the code <?php avatarupload_display(get_post_author_id()); ?> (without the tick marks) right under where the member's name is for the kakumei template and also a template I installed from another site. If you don't know php, like me, here's where I put mine....it is the 3rd line, below (without the tick marks):

<strong><?php post_author_link(); ?></strong><br />
<small><?php post_author_title_link(); ?></small>
<?php avatarupload_display(get_post_author_id()); ?>

I still don't know where to put the other code in the other php file so the avatar shows up on their profile page, but as long as people can see it by posts, their avatar can be seen if they are active on the board.

But, I would welcome the instructions for "where" to put the code so it shows up on the profile page.

Can someone please help I have the Same Problem as the last few comments. I've followed all the instructions.

The "Avatar" tab has appeared OK in the profile but when I click on to it I get redirected to My BBpress forum index.
When I hover over the Avatar tab link it points to: { .../forum/profile.php?id=1&tab=avatar}

I really wanna get this working. Any ideas why it redirects to the index page???

@liverlee. try @DanielJuhl's suggestion (above), quoted here:

For sake of anybody trying to get this plugin going, here is what worked for me:

- scour the comments in this thread and golden deliciousness of plugin functionality shall be found:

Namely the following two posts:

http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/avatar-upload/page/8/#post-5522
http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/avatar-upload/page/8/#post-5039

They detail the following actions:

commenting out this line 7 in avatar-upload.php like so:

//bb_auth(); // logged in?

And!

... as fundomaat shared, the following also did the trick for me to prevent blank paginess:

"I've repaired the blank page error by putting the avatar.php file inside your template folder inside bb-templates instead of my-templates. "

(in other words, for me, placed avatar.php into my kakumei folder as that is the theme I am using)

-------------------------------

Now, what I have done to display the avatars is the following:

in profile.php (found in my kakumei theme folder) changed the following:

<div id="useravatar"><?php echo $avatar; ?></div>

to this:

<div id="useravatar"> <?php avatarupload_display($user->ID); ?> </div>

---------

then in post.php (also found in my kakumei theme folder)

changed the following:

<?php post_author_avatar_link(); ?>

to this:

<?php avatarupload_display(get_post_author_id()); ?>

--------------------------

I'm no code master, so perform at own risk.

Thanks to all yall making this bbpress thing happen! This is by far the best forum system ever!!

Woo hoo! Avatars? Check!!

doobadabba, thanks for the information, it helped summarize 8 pages of comments :)

Now that the upload page is showing correctly, it seems that the error message "Filenames may not include the following: # ? & % " | ' * `" whenever I try to upload a file. The file's name has only letters - pic.jpg, so I'm not sure what's wrong here. Any advice would be appreciated

Hi Dobbstopper,

That sounds above my skill set.

You could try using the "Bavatars" plugin instead of this one.

Download Bavatars here: http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bavatars/installation/

I actually just deactivated "Avatar Upload", and have installed the "Bavatars" plugin, and now I have Bavatars working just fine! Bavatars involved fewer steps than Upload Avatar to get it going - for example with Bavatars I didn't need to modify profile.php and post.php in order for the avatar to be displayed. I'm not sure which one I will stick with tho.
