I've got a problem after installig the latest avatar mod, y board version is 3.4.01

The problem is That the threat-starter's avatar never appears the board doesn't find the pic but if the threatstarter reply's his avatar is shown. What could be the problem here ?

there are two places in topic.asp that the avatar code must go, one for Topic and one for Replies. Please re-read and verify or post a link to a text copy of your topic.asp

Your problem is that where the Avatar code has been included for the thread starters post you've used the variable Reply_MemberAvatar again instead of Member_Avatar and the IF statement for this avatar uses Reply_MemberAvatar instead of Member_Avatar. The erronous code can be found where you've modified the Sub getFirst() within topic.asp

Corrected Code:
if Member_Avatar <> "noavatar.gif" then
response.write" <img src=""" & Member_Avatar & """ width=""" & intAvatarWidth & """ height=""" & intAvatarHeight & """ border=""" & intAvatarBorder & """>"
end if

I also noticed that on the following line to that you seem to have the code for Member Country wrong as well as thats used Reply_MemberCountry instead of the correct Member_Country.

Corrected Code:
response.write " <p><font color=""" & strForumFontColor & """ face=""" & strDefaultFontFace & """ size=""" & strFooterFontSize & """><small>" & Member_Country & "</small></font><br />" & vbNewLine & _

That should solve your problem!


By The Way:

I notice that this implementation of Avatars is essentially very similar to the one I have on my forum based on an upgraded version of Avatar Version 2 for Snitz 3.3.03. (Thus the Width, Height and Border are stored in a DB table and Avatars are also stored in a DB table for users to select from and the URL then stored in the M_AVATAR_URL field like in this Avatar Implementation.

Where did the code for your Avatar MOD come from as I'd be interested in comparing?

I have not yet even looked at installing avatars on 3.4 so I'm just making a judgement based on what I know from earlier versions.

Look at line 585 - 592.



Response.Write	"                </p>" & vbNewLine
		 	if MemberAvatar <> "noavatar.gif" then
		 	response.write"		<img src=""" & Reply_MemberAvatar & """ width=""" & intAvatarWidth & """ height=""" & intAvatarHeight & """ border=""" & intAvatarBorder & """>"
		 	end if 
		 	Response.Write	"                </p>" & vbNewLine
		 	if Reply_MemberAvatar <> "noavatar.gif" then
		 		    response.write"		<img src=""" & Reply_MemberAvatar & """ width=""" & intAvatarWidth & """ height=""" & intAvatarHeight & """ border=""" & intAvatarBorder & """>"
		 	end if


From what I can see you have posted the code twice in this area.
Remove the code in red.

I'm going to download the avatars mod an take a look just to make sure.

********* Short Time Passes **********************
Remove the red as stated above.
The instructions only show this code being placed there.

Response.Write	"                </p>" & vbNewLine
		 	if Reply_MemberAvatar <> "noavatar.gif" then
		 		    response.write"		<img src=""" & Reply_MemberAvatar & """ width=""" & intAvatarWidth & """ height=""" & intAvatarHeight & """ border=""" & intAvatarBorder & """>"
		 	end if
