E107: newforumposts_menu - Avatar size

[fizi]

I updated my site from Github.
I see on the newforumpost menu that the avatar size not good.
I have custom layout on the homepage and the forum page (news is default)
Example:

1. Avatar size on the news page
   <img class="img-circle user-avatar user-avatar-online" alt="ap_1_him4.gif" src="/media/avatar/40x0/upload/ap_1_him4.gif" width="40">

1. Avatar size on the homepage
   <img class="img-circle user-avatar user-avatar-online" alt="ap_1_him4.gif" src="/media/avatar/350x200/upload/ap_1_him4.gif" width="350" height="200">

2. Avatar size on the forum page
   <img class="img-circle user-avatar user-avatar-online" alt="ap_1_him4.gif" src="/media/avatar/100x0/upload/ap_1_him4.gif" width="100">

It's very interesting
On the home page image size configured in the portfolio - theme.php
{SETIMAGE: w=350&h=200&crop=1} {GALLERY_PORTFOLIO: placeholder=1&category=2&limit=12}

On the forum page image size configured in the template - forum_viewtopic.php
{SETIMAGE: w=100&h=0&crop=0}

It seems that the size of the avatar on the site following the set image size.
Interesting. :)
I nothing put into the css file, and I not configure the avatar image.
As if somehow the avatar inherit an image size.

Yes, this is how {SETIMAGE} works. It determines image and avatar sizes. Please update and see if it helps - I have reset the size back to 40 if a width of over 250px is detected.

Work on home but not work on forum pages.

@fizi Try to put a {SETIMAGE} shortcode before the avatar in the forum template, ie: {SETIMAGE: w=100&h=100}{AVATAR}

[fizi]

The problem not with forum avatar (I set it). The problem with the avatar in the newforumpost menu avatar. This menu in menuarea. This below the main content. The problem that the image below the main content (menu image) inherit (all images) the image size that I set in the main content.

[CaMer0n]

Place {SETIMAGE} inside theme.php where your sidebar begins.

[fizi]

I put {SETIMAGE} before footer and on all pages avatar width: 100px. I don't know from where get this width. If I put {SETIMAGE: w=40&h=40&crop=1} in this way the newforumpost menu avatar ok...but if I active to this menuarea example: other news menu...the news-image width will 40px? In this way I need always rewrite the theme.php, if I want active another menu to this menuarea?

[rica-carv]

@fizi You can use the tablestyles to make that {SETIMAGE} only present on the forum menu....

P.S.: Sorry my first comment, i don't use newforumpost menu...

[fizi]

CaMer0n reset the avatar size for 40px...it works on all page, only on the forum pages not work (now the avatar size 20px on forum pages, not 40px). rica-carv what You wrote not good for me, because if anybody want put another menu to this menuarea, need rewrite the theme.php file.

[CaMer0n]

@fizi What do you propose as a possible solution?

[rica-carv]

@CaMer0n One solution i can imediatly see is to template the newforumpost menu, as is already donne with the login_menu...

P.S.: Just a little "off topic".
Why there's the plugin newforumposts_main ??? Since it's somehow related to forum plugin, couldn't they both be joined together (as some "house cleanup")???

[fizi]

Would be good make the template for newforumpost menu. In this may set the avatar size.

[CaMer0n]

@rica-carv @Moc I have added a template for the new-forum-posts menu. During this process the confusion/chaos of the forum shortcodes was very apparent. So, I have started the (huge) task of creating a new batch of forum shortcodes from scratch. The idea is that they would be consistent across all forum pages: forum, forum-view and forum-topic (but not the forum-post/submit form)

Please take a look at view_shortcodes.php . It is where I placed them for now, but in future they could be moved to forum_shortcodes.php. The shortcodes are organized much the same was as the forum db tables, as follows:

sc_forum_xxxx (forum table)
sc_topic_xxxx (thread table)
sc_post_xxxx (post table)

Please feel free to expand on them as we move forward.

The 'main' template of newforumposts needs some work/help. I think it could be simplified further than what I have added already.

I believe this can be closed as the avatar size should no longer be an issue. Please re-open if necessary.
