Title: Avatars and Sigs
Post by: OldBloke on February 13, 2009, 10:57:56 AM
This is probably worthy of its own thread ....

Do we know why non-supporters like Duvel still have avatars?

Probably because they were there before. The new permissions stop them being changed/uploaded but does not remove if they already have one.

Sigs will turn off dependant on group permissions. Not so with avatars. We'll need to remove them manually from all.

Once I've finished the final group mantenance script I'll see if there is a way of globally removing all avatars from a group.

sorted.

Code added to template 'postbit_legacy'


           
               
                   

                         
"<phrase$vbphrase[xs_avatar]" border="0" />
                   

               


           

This will show avatars for groups 6 (Administrators) and 48 (Supporting Member)

If there are other groups that I've missed and need this, let me know the group ID or name.

oh, and this doesn't remove their avatar. It just stops it being displayed, so if they sign up then they don't need to re-upload their avatar.
