Your Portal Version: 1.0.0RC3
Your phpBB Type: Standard phpBB3
MODs installed: Yes
Your knowledge: Basic Knowledge
Boardlink: http://www.untamedgaming.com

What have you done before the problem was there?
Nothing

What have you already tryed to solve the problem?
Replaced user_menu.html with 1.0.4 version to see if it would work.

Description and Message
I just updated from 1.0.4 to 1.0.5 and noticed that on the user menu, it shows a "blank" avatar image instead of my avatar image. My avatar shows up fine everywhere else in the forum and ucp so it must be due to the new code of 1.0.5. Any suggestions on how to get it to show again? It is a very minor detail but I digress.

Make sure you replaced all files with the new ones as directed by the update instructions. After that refresh your board cache and also all style caches (template, theme, imageset). After that it should work again. Refreshing your browser cache might also help.

A link to your board might help, as OneLifeBoard.com does not use 1.0.5 and the other board doesn't use a portal at all.

As i testet one of the Beta of this release i had the same error. I forgot to replace the user_menu.html for my style. I think its the same on your Board. You need to make the changes on ALL STYLES you are using, not just prosilver and subsilver2 ;)

As i can see, you already have the 1.0.5 user_menu.html ...
Didt you make all the instructions, and copy all needed files from the 1.0.5 package?

If you are watching your menu, did you have an "view unread" link in the second line?
If not, you have to clear all you caches again: Knowledge Base: Changes to forums styles

I figured out the problem. I looked in the html file and corresponding php file and noticed that the avatar "code" wasn't renamed properly with the new version.

Open: user_menu.html

Find

Code: Select all

 <!-- IF AVATAR_IMG -->
			<a href="{U_PROFILE}">{AVATAR_IMG}</a>
Replace with

Code: Select all

<!-- IF B3P_AVATAR_IMG -->
			<a href="{U_PROFILE}">{B3P_AVATAR_IMG}</a>
The B3P prefix is new in this version.
