Module: User Avatar

Did you put that img src inside the {LOOP MESSAGES}?
Did you dump the $PHORUM['TMP']['MESSAGES'] data within that loop to see if the avatar info was there?

sure:

{LOOP MESSAGES}
{IF NOT MESSAGES->parent_id 0}
<a name="msg-{MESSAGES->message_id}"></a>
{/IF}
<?php
print_r($PHORUM['TMP']['MESSAGES']);
?>
<!--- some custom html --->

{IF MESSAGES->user_avatar}
<td style="width: 130px; padding: 15px;">
<img src="{MESSAGES->user_avatar}" alt="{MESSAGES->author}"/>
</td>
{/IF}
<td style="vertical-align: top; padding-top: 15px;">
{IF MESSAGES->subject}<strong>{MESSAGES->subject}</strong>{ELSEIF TOPIC->subject}<strong>{TOPIC->subject}</strong>{/IF}&nbsp;({IF MESSAGES->URL->PROFILE}<a href="{MESSAGES->URL->PROFILE}">{/IF}{MESSAGES->author}{IF MESSAGES->URL->PROFILE}</a>){/IF}<br><span class="small">{MESSAGES->datestamp}</span>
</td>

and the user didn't set in the controlpanel to disable avatars?

no, avatars are enabled for all users i tried.

and the settings for that module in the admin are set to what?

Btw., you know that you are using an old version which possibly contains security issues?

the module is enabled of course. i've changed the max. files to 1 and the dimensions to 100x100, erveryone is allowed to use and to disable the avatars.
the upload works and if i change {MESSAGES->user_avatar} to {USER->user_avatar} the avatar is shown (to myself only of course).

i know, but i'm not really frightened :-)

dunno, the module takes no special settings beside the ones named above and simply adds the avatars. I can only think of some other module interfering in the read hook.

we have enabled:

Announcements
BBCode
HTML Phorum Mod
Impersonate User (version 1.0.5)
Mark All Forums Read (version 1.0.8)
New message notification module (version 1.01)
Recent Messages (version 2.0.13)
User Avatar (version 3.0.4)

i switched them all to "off" - except the avatar - and nothing changed.

I am curious why the LIST template had not been considered by the module authors for displaying avatars. Some people prejudge posts by looking at avatars like some people do it with wine by looking at bottle labels.

The module authors had no use for it.
