MyBB Community Forums

On this forum you see tumbnails, off the person who last posted, and the person who created the topic (small avatar of that person).

Anyone knows what plugin this is, or how to do this?

Thanks

Use the one below

I don't recommend the plugin posted above, this is a lot better: https://github.com/TommM/flpavatar

Don't use plugin otherwise watch your SQL queries be multiplied by x2. Use this simple tutorial and add it manually no big deal

As far as I know, Tomm's First/Last Post Avatar adds just one query. Generally speaking, high quality plugins are optimized in a way that they don't require any query at all or the minimum amount possible of them.

Used this, thanks all for the answers!

I recomend to use al plugins where you can see no more querys need than used by you and you can optimize them, Tom have a great plugin and i take the function he use on his plugin and works perfect, i add some new things and that's the latest revision of my own plugin, it works too and no more query's at all, only the used by plugin and have more improvements, you can use the plugin you want and you can review on your debuger for querys taken xD.

You can disable options on plugins or entire plugin to see diferences between one or another tasks or plugins and finally you decide wich plugin you want to use xD.

Cheers.

It does not true, you can optimize them, show me what you're talking about, because i use my own plugin and works like if you add querys manualy on core files with some better access, because if you upgrade your board you don't have to write another time the contents.

I recomend to verify with Tom's plugin and with edited core files and in your debuger you can see what i'm talking about, i use my own plugin and works fine too, but i have some options and improvements automatizated, but works fine xD.

I add some previews i have some forums and at least 5 different avatars.

You can see this:

Normal mode i have 9 querys and 3MB ussage of memory.

When i put the plugin i have this:

With plugin 10 querys and 3.25MB memory ussage, so where are duplicated values or something like that :s.

And take in mind i add appart avatar one onclick menu displayed and username style for every user, so i think if you use fine your sql commands you can add some features to your MyBB forum.

I find that using the number of queries as a pretty bad metric to judge performance on. My forum index runs 19 queries but the total page load time is less than half of yours. It depends a lot on your MySQL (and to an extent, PHP) configuration.



Adding a single extra query really isn't that big a deal. If the plugin was unoptimised and did something silly like an extra query for every thread on the page then, yeah, stay away from it. But it is a well optimised plugin so there should be no concerns with running it.

I am not an expert but I have tried all these plugins that add avatars and my queries were multiplied by x2!
For everyone please check queries on forumdisplay.php or on the page that shows avatars.
Of course it doesn't add extra queries on pages that it's not designed for!
