Do you see any errors on that page. I am using the code noted in this thread.

Nope, that page looks fine to me. I wonder why mine isn't working...

Well thats why I asked why your avatar has that 0 on the end. That tells me you still had that one block still installed because the conditional for the normal code is very clear. If fileavatar is yes and hasav = 1 will it print the fileavatar otherwise your using some other storage method like image.php etc

You can try placing with the line here

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

maybe try this

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

Hmm, still no avatars...

I'll just leave the avatar problem alone in that case. Later on, I'll look into which vBulletin variables are populated for my avatar system.

I did manage to get one thing to work, however: my new navbar! It's displayed entirely from a custom vB template since most of the login form variables aren't populated in the reviewpost system.

Do you like it?

MoMan2,
If it makes you feel any better I have the same problem in my ReviewPost implementation, some people's avatars show up and others don't. I never spent the time to track down why, but it is a bug in ReviewPost, if I devote time and find a fix I will let you know.

Ok I finally got around to fixing this up, here is the code you need in vb3.php in your reviews/forums directory

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

What was happening is that the hasav value was true but the avrev was zero meaning someone went in to edit a custom avatar but for some reason never completed doing so, such as a failed upload. This stored the hasav value as being true but the avrev was still sitting at zero so the avatar it would look for would be something like avatarxxxx_0.gif where xxxx is the userid of that user. To prevent this simply put in a check that avrev is not zero, in essence 1 or higher since it should never be negative and if still true then it will pull the proper custom avatar file.

This also needs to be fixed on Photopost vbgallery, same problem there as well.
