Hey,
I have SMF installed in my site (forum.lazergaming.net) and I'm facing a problem right now.
Everything is configured all right(from what I know) but profile picture doesnt show up in some mobile devices. I didn't show up in Samsung A20 and some other devices.
I tried clearing cache, changing the theme and stuff. I will add an attachment to show how it looks like. Any help is welcomed!
Note: The profile Pic doesnt show up in the default SMF theme also
I believe that is by design.
Re: default theme, are you also referring to mobile, or desktop?
I'm speaking about mobile version(No problem in desktop version.). Switching between themes wont work. So I assume it has nothing to do with the theme.
Any ideas about what I can do?
You'd have to manually edit the theme. AFAIK, the developers decided to not show avatars on mobile, so it's not there, not even as a user option.
Yeah Maybe. Still confused why it's showing up in some mobile devices...(oh and i noted in this community profile pics show up in mobile devices without issues)
Anyways how can I edit files and make the profile pics appear in any device?
GOOD NEWS: I fixed it. I was using http when I uploaded the profile pic, so re-uploading it with https fixed. So i doesnt have anything to do with theme or SMF
And Thanks For The Help Offered!
Hmm, interesting. I guess what I said above must be wrong then.
then you should enable the image proxy, that would fix this issue and avatars linked to http would show up correctly.
BUMP!
I thought the problem was fixed after re-uploading because at that time it worked. But I was wrong. The problem doesn't apply only for mobile. Time to time profile pictures wont show up doesn't matter what device it is.
I tried clearing cache many occasions but it didn't work. But clearing the browsers cache was a temporary fix I found. It fix the issue but it causes again.
I'm using SMF 2.0.17 with Sunrise theme. Below mods are used,
TinyPortal
Optimus
@mention members
Activity in Profile
Profile Views
Team Page
EDIT: Maybe these things are useless but just in case I changed forum fro http to https & the forum is at forum.lazergaming.net though its installed at lazergaming.net/forum.
Any help welcomed.
Thanks

Have you done this?
Yeah I have enabled that setting.
please include the URL of a page demonstrating the problem??
since it doesn't happen all the time and doesn't happen to every user I doubt I can provide something like that but it looks like..
and same with desktop too..
It just happend again when I'm using desktop...
does it happen when you use the SMF default theme (the one that is used here) ?

Yeah same with it too :(
Whichever portal you are using needs an update to use the image proxy.
you have some problem with your general configuration.... because when I go to your site, it shows me http, not https -- and this prevents many images form appearing.
I can't debug further, because your site requires a login to see anything
Yeah I' aware of that. I mean once you are logged in you will redirect to https.
I made a test account
user: test
pass : test
If you just "changed to HTTPS" in the Admin Control Panel, I think you need to run repair_settings afterwards, to change the URLs of your themes, avatars, attachments, etc., to HTTPS, too.
What Kindred refers to is that many browsers nowadays won't show some HTTP ("mixed") content (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Security/Mixed_content/How_to_fix_website_with_mixed_content) when your site is HTTPS. Images would fall under "passive mixed content", and I don't know if (or which) current browsers block them by default.
right.... so, something is bad in your configuration.
Could be as Arantor suggests and be related to the portal settings... but your avatar fails to show in https and shows in http
does not show, asks for a login every time, even when I am logged in
https://forum.lazergaming.net/index.php?action=dlattach;attach=14;type=avatar
displays the avatar...
http://forum.lazergaming.net/index.php?action=dlattach;attach=14;type=avatar
well for me both the links you provided works...
And I also ran repair tool and changed all link to https.
IDK where I did wrong :(
your avatar -- is it one of the internal avatars that anyone can choose from, or is it an external avatar from somewhere else?
If it's from somewhere else, and was chosen specifically by/for you --- Did you put it in by URL or did you upload it?
I directly uploaded it from my pc to the forum.

I was able to fix this by overwriting the .htaccess file using this code
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]Yet I've got no clue why the profile pictures wont appear sometimes when they are uploaded to the forum.
