well i can't uninstall the mod since it come after it does the tests for un-modding the files.

my server has mysql4 maybe that might be the problem, i am very sure its the syntax.

You can uninstall the mod manually or unzip the package and remove the

Code Select Expand

<code>AvatarOnBoardDB.php</code>

from package-info.xml. Then compress it back and uninstall the mod.

Worked, thanks.

Might i suggest for a future version that

Code Select Expand

<code>AvatarOnBoardDB.php</code>


should be placed before the command to remove the noavatar.gif file since mine stopped @ the mysql error after it deleted the image.

Other wise its great



EDIT: This conflicts with:    Redirection Boards      2.01

ow,  that's the problem I guess. I don't use the Redirection board  mod so I don't know. Thanks for trying this mode BTW.

i have just been installing a couple of mods, and came to the conclusion that i will keep this mod.

It turns out the redirection mod nulles the intallation of your mod and others like BoardHover Mod      1.1.0 and cbi.

its me again...hehehe

I was going to attempt to manually install the mod and see if I got any of the previous errors - but when I tried to use the parser this is all that showed up on the page (this is from your latest version of the mod):

It didnt have this on the first version you had - it showed all the files that needed to be edited, etc,  but unfortunately I deleted that version when you made the new one

Hi Kimmie. Those are from the additional laguage translation. The parser needs updating to recognize alternate characters. You will be okay if you use the package manager.  Do you like a copy of the mod that does not have the additional translated language strings?

[Bulakbol]

good work
nice Mod

Thanks for the compliment Joomlamz. Thanks for trying this mod. 

[Eliana Tamerin]

I love this mod. I'm using it on several forums, and I'm starting to learn who's posted just by their avatars. It's great to just be able to glance and see if I want to read the post or not. Thank you for your continued innovation and ingenuity, JohnyB.

[Marcus Forsberg]

Thanks for a great mod!

[Bulakbol]

Hi Eliana. I thought I am the only one that look at the avatar instead of the names of last poster. yes, I am used to it now, that's why I updated the mod to support the topic index too. Version 2.0 will now display avatars of last poster in topic index. I will leave version 1.2 for those who don't want the avatars in the topic index.

@MTF5
   Thanks for the comliment.


I thank you all for trying this mod.

[Kimmie]

well i dont really need the additional strings because I only use english on my site so if you have a version that has the update you have mentioned on the mod page but not the additional strings that would be great.

- Version 1.2 - display last poster avatar in Board index and Message index.
- Version 2.0 - same as above plus last poster avatar in topic index.

(and remember - I cant use the package manager to install it because of the previous errors and the fact it doesnt support my theme. I was gonna try to install it to my theme manually and see if that  worked)

its me again...hehehe

@Kimmie. What theme are you using? I might as well add it to the supported theme. That way, it makes you and other's life easier.  If it still throw errors on you, then install it manually.

hehe thanks.. not sure if you can incorporate the theme I am using though as its a Custom TP Theme but your more than welcome to give it a go.

I am using the BlueAce theme and you can find it here:

Hi again Kimmie. I am not member there so I can't download anything. Just attach the file in question and I'll shoot in the dark while you shoot under the sun. Let's see who can hit the target first. haha. I'm sure you will.

[Kimmie]

lol your silly...okie dokie the theme is attached.

[Bulakbol]

lol your silly...okie dokie the theme is attached.

Haha. Fun keep us young.    Thanks. I'll make the neccessary changes to your Display.template.php. I'll get back to you.


<EDIT>
@Kimmie. The BlueAce theme does not have the files to be edited. Once the mod is installed and no errors, you are all set. Your theme uses the default files except for index.template.php so you are okay.  Let me know how I can help you to install this mod.

Well thats what I thought too orignally..hehe. When I initially installed it using the package manager, there were no "test failed" errors of any kind. Everything worked fine for a day or so, then I noticed that on certain boards (looking at the main forum page), if someone posted in a child board, their avatar wouldnt show up on the main page. Also - the avatars that show up on topic view (when using the avatar@index mod), no longer showed up. Then when I got those two errors in my log that I mentioned previously - one of them was due to new members not selecting an avatar before they posted the first time. The "noavatar" that is included with your mod wouldnt show up for them - and I think it was conflicting with the "no pic" that smf uses as a default avatar setting on new members.

What I will do is this: I will reinstall it via the package manager - give it a few days and see what happens..hehe. 


EDIT: ok is reinstalled.. no test failed errors and no errors in the error log. Its also left he avatars@index working like its supposed to. I will give you an update tomorrow and let you know how its working.
