I'm getting the same error as kling above, but don't see a response to his problem:

Warning: implode(): Bad arguments. in /*/mod_user_avatar.php on line 50

What is wrong?

UPDATE: Okay, I found out what was wrong. In the Documentation, it simply says:

File Uploads must be enabled in Phorum's 'General Settings'. You need to make sure to allow at least one image filetype, such as .gif, .jpg, or .png.

But, you must *also* go into the Modules control panel, click on the "settings" for the Avatar module, and enable image filetypes there.

Done as you say, but the problem remains the same. When I uncheck the avatar blockage checkbox I save it and it returns checked. What a frustration... :(

I had this same problem after creating the "mod_user_avatar" field, but not unchecking the "Disable HTML" box when I made it. I went back and unchecked the box, but it did not help.

The following worked:
Delete "mod_user_avatar" field in Custom Profiles
Recreate it and ensure the "Disable HTML" is unchecked when you do.

This fixed my problem.

I found another issue. In flat mode (reading posts) every avatar is that of the first poster. It must not be letting go of the value. I am playing around with where to put

{IF MESSAGE->mod_user_avatar}
<img src="{MESSAGE->mod_user_avatar}" alt="" align="left" hspace="10" />
{/IF}

in the read.tpl file. I have not found a spot that fixes the problem entirely. Moving it has caused the wrong avatar under the next poster (still the thread starter's), or made all avatars disappear from all posters after the first.
Where is the text?

Hello,

I've installed the module into a phorum 5.0.21 and it seems to work.
Only 2 problems:
1) the language file does not seem to work. (i.e. no text in the 'personal profile' link to the avatar settings) Where does the english file need to be put? Is it an old version?
2) No avatars are visible in the beginscreen / overview all threads. Allthough I've modified all the files that are named in the readme.txt

Thanks for your help,
rene

I have both of these problems too! I've renamed my mods folder to 'user_avatar' and that solved the 'no settings error' but i'm still left with no text.

The mods/user_avatar/english.php seems to be a culprit.
1. Should it have an index for 'EditAvatar' as required by cc_menu.tpl.
2. Should english.php be in that directory?

Any help would be great! Cheers

I don't know much about this mod, but if it has proper module language support, then the english.php should be in mods/user_avatar/lang/english.php and the info.txt should contain an entry saying "hook: lang|". So an english.php directly in the mod directory doesn't sound right to me.

You're right about the EditAvatar key. If that is a language string that is used, it should be defined somewhere in a language file.

hi
i've gone through this thread and tried all relevant fixes, double checked the readme for this module and made all changes as instructed.

however, after adding images to 'my files', when i go to the avatar control panel, i get no options for images to choose as an avatar, only the pre-selected option 'No Avatar'

i have ensured that file uploads are on and the .gif and .jpg are selected. the images i have uploaded are one .gif and one .jpg

thanks!!

I think this mod may be broken due to a new version.
