MyBB Community Forums

By default MyBB not shows avatar due a several reasons, but this feature is used on most common cms and
boards actually.

Since the first 1.6.x series i work so hard to try to get avatars to forumlist, and threadlist, but with a few years this is a real feature missing on 1.8.x series too.

So this plugin allows you to get avatar on some parts of your forums.

Forum Index.
Show Thread.
Private Messages.
Search.
Portal.

In this parts are common hooks to do, but some parts are taking more code work than others.

Customization:

See this guide

https://github.com/WhiteNeo/lastposter-a.../readme.md

I update this guide on github with info on how to customize on default theme, on others you have to use customized vars and setup at your own, maybe we can provide help for other themes to make it shows more nice.

This mod is 100% customizable and aplicable to all MyBB 1.8.x series themes.

Enjoy it and i set this theme because the latest flp version is for 1.6.x series and this version is woring only on1.8.x series, on 1.6.x series should work but with some core editions, so here they are Last poster avatar version for MyBB.

Download:

EDIT: Up to date, new 2.9 version is recommended to use on all MyBB 1.8.x series.

You have to deactivate actual version, then upload new one and activate, then you can customize it at your own.

I will update guide this weekend for new changes on this version.

The most important patch is for new 1.8.8 and 1.8.9 versions of mybb due core changes and the propertly code to work with that changes.

Change list on fist post of this thread. And as ever guide to customize on github up to date with this version 2.9.

It is caused by a conflict with Style Usernames:

Disable formatted names into avatarep settings or deactivate the other plugin i add a warn for this into my plugin, anyway this is the way to fix it due this plugin adds formated names too like style usernames plugin, this feature was implemented since Lasposter avatar for 1.6.3 into my 1.0 version of this plugin with several bugs of course :p

But this two is the most common issues that i have to fix many times.

i update 2.8.4 > 2.8.5 but no work Forum Index page.
other page work but forum index page wrong wiev profil. i click and show guess avatar.

Problem was about Google SEO, well i use Google SEO, so avatar works fine on all users who use Google SEO, but when you use urls from MyBB then error appear and there are no id for user so there are missing data, nice catch .
I catch it thanks to your image, i test on a clean board without any plugin and done !!!

Another error was id for announcements do not catch and username was not taken. But i fixed on github repo, i reccomend you to report all issues here and i fix everyone on github repo and when all is ready then i upload the latest revision with all fixed.

Thanks in advance. This time i catch error and fix it due i reproduce it, sometimes i can no do nothing due i can not reproduce it.

Thanks to you, test the latest github repo and tell me if you catch or find some other issue for i can fix it ASAP.

oke i have updated everything, and guess what my forum is bugged thanks to your plugin

i have added all of the codes from your tutorial and still the problems.





do you see at the last image, my topic name is above the image, somehow your tutorial is not working.

please help me to fix this problem!
i can make for you a account that only can use the templates area!

cause our design is still under construction and not availible for public.

Yeah do it, every style has their own style, so you have to make some changes, only on deault and deault ones based works fine in others you have to do manually changes.

Make me an account and send me details next weekend right now i have no pc, due it's broken, so i have to buy a new one, i you tell me about this before i have one o some friend to work o paid plugins, but right now i have nothing i try to get one in this next days because i have to finish some details on my plugins, so i i can i check it out when i can, it is an easy task to do i think i can do it on a few minutes, when i got the account i do the changes, take in mind every style has their own stylesheets and templates so i work it only on the theme used by deault or the theme o the previews on others you have to do the same or similar, it is not a problem o plugin or anything it's a problem with your used themes due designers changes all and manytimes broken himselfs the right codes and then blum all goes to hell technically.

So you have to get me details and then i can fix it.

See yah !!!

wow now i can see our forum is a very heavy site lol...

@Dark Neo I'm facing similar issue as Wazzyl, take a look:

https://extrasalty.eu

name shows up but no avatar on main site

I think we're missing some template (or kinda incomplete) here :x


EDIT:

Ok, i found out that in readmefile You attached to the plugin You got some outdated code,

forumbit_depth2_forum_lastpost from github:

<table border="0">
  <tr>
    <td width="20%" align="left" valign="middle">{$forum['avatarep']}<span class="smalltext"></span></td>
    <td width="80%" align="left" valign="top">
<span class="smalltext">
<a href="{$lastpost_link}" title="{$full_lastpost_subject}"><strong>{$lastpost_subject}</strong></a>
<br />{$lastpost_date} {$lastpost_time}<br />{$lastpost_profilelink}</span>
   </td>
  </tr>
</table>

But the avatar is oddly "High", not centered there, could You tell me why?


EDIT2:

Ok, i figured it out, css stuff You gave in the readme was also outdated. After updating to the github one everything works like a charm.
Please update Your package here

Awesome work!

@Eska yes i mentioned that when some user tell me about some problem and now when i go to the site of thé user i know the error was on user who wont use Google SEO.

By the way all stuff is already done on github repo and i test on my forums so as far as i know it works, but i say users to report issues or any to fix it before upload the latest revision here.

I fix it all that i can reproduce, so i really apreciate if many users test it and report or contribute to maje a better mod and release and up to date.

I recommend if you are not using Google SEO or anyway to up to date with github repo i update contents and file here ASAP.

have you fixed this dark?
look same problem with wazzyl
