How can I add a user avatar to the index page without using a plugin?

Call the avatar variable in an image tag.

<img src="{$mybb->user['avatar']}" />

Note that if someone does not have a custom avatar set it won't show anything so you use this instead.

<img src="{$mybb->user['avatar']}" onerror="this.onerror=null;this.src='INSERTDEFAULTAVATARIMGURLHERE';" />

^ insert your default avatar image url there. most folks are /images/default_avatar.png

How do I add an author avatar on the forumdisplay page?
