Postbit editing

MoMan2 · February 25th, 2007, 09:36 PM

Which template/file would I have to edit to modify the review postbit (avatar location, PM/profile button, etc.)?

Thanks.

showproduct template is the file that prints the review over a product

Thanks! I've done most of the edits that I wanted, but these two are stumping me.

-Where do I edit to modify the buttons displayed below each review (i.e. profile, PM, posts, etc.)?
-When I have user avatar display enabled, the system tries to retrieve avatars for all users, even those that don't have one, resulting in a 404 error. What can I do to only have avatars display for users that have one? (this seems like a bug)

Here's an example: http://www.pentaxforums.com/lensrevi...uct=201&cat=30

Note that Lance's avatar links to a user-id related directory that is nonexistent: http://www.pentaxforums.com/forums//...vatar552_0.gif

and what is the avatar path for users who have avatars?

as far as post buttons they are in the get_profiledata function in the vb3.php forum integration file which is also where we determine avatars

MoMan2 · February 27th, 2007, 07:20 PM

Thanks! I'll check out the file and get back to you if anything comes up.

A correct avatar path can look like this:

.../forums//customavatars/avatar77_1.gif, where 77 is the user ID and 1 is the avatar number. If users delete and re-upload an avatar, the number changes. Also, for some reason, reviewpost adds an additional slash in the url.

I've just taken care of the buttons as I wanted...now all that's left are the avatars.

You need to post a true full url to a bad images and the good image on the forum

MoMan2 · February 28th, 2007, 06:25 PM

Sure thing. I thought you wanted to know the structure...

Here's a page with both good and bad avatars: http://www.pentaxforums.com/lensrevi...uct=143&cat=34

Chuck S · February 28th, 2007, 07:04 PM

The reason why I asked you to post the paths to good avatars and bad avatars is because I use all the latest browsers and they do not show bad images at all so I am not able to see the issue you see

MoMan2 · February 28th, 2007, 11:22 PM

Hmm, that's strange. It occurs for me in both IE7 and FF2. Examples:

Thanks for the help so far!

What happens in vb3.php if you remove the code in bold

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

MoMan2 · March 1st, 2007, 10:49 PM

Removing that appears to disable avatars completely. I messed around with the code a bit, and it turns out that the only relevent line is precisely the one you told me to take out:

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

If I get rid of the entire conditional and just leave that piece intact (changing elseif to if), avatars will still work. Seems a bit strange, though, since doesn't $hasav == 0 mean that the user has no avatar?

Hi,

This issue still isn't reolved. I'd appreciate some help.

Chuck S · May 26th, 2007, 08:45 AM

Your post above says if has been resolved though?

Removing that ONE CONDITIONAL should be fine

MoMan2 · June 14th, 2007, 06:24 AM

I've just checked again, and removing that conditional just disables avatars completely. It seems logical to remove that conditional...strange.

Chuck S · June 14th, 2007, 08:42 AM

Well find one that does not work and post the good and bad url to that one specific avatar and we can find why yours has an issue

MoMan2 · June 14th, 2007, 10:20 AM

Here's a sample page: http://pentaxforums.com/lensreviews/...uct=194&cat=30

The system thinks that users that don't have avatars actually have them, and it generates links similar to this one: http://www.pentaxforums.com/forums/c...avatar10_0.gif

Chuck S · June 14th, 2007, 10:36 AM

As stated since I use every new browser there is I will not see any error. However as I stated months ago removing the code noted in the vb3.php will remove that issue.

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

Your still printing that line where $hasav == 0 and if you remove it then the issue will dissapear

MoMan2 · June 14th, 2007, 11:15 AM

I've just done that (as I've tried before), and now no avatars are showing at all! Something must be wrong with the $hasav value...
