My own solution for Jcomments Avatar for Community Builder!

[osman007]

Hello Jcomments en Community Builder users. I couldn’t wait for SMART to develope the Avatar plugin, so I made code for persons like me who can’t wait. I am not an expert developer, just a script kid.

It’s simpel.

Step 1:
Open /components/com_jcomments/tpl/default/tpl_comment.php

Step 2:
Replace:
====================
<div class="comment-avatar"><?php echo $comment->avatar; ?></div>
====================

By:
====================
<?php
  $database = & JFactory::getDBO();
  $jcommentaarid = $comment->userid;
  $sql = "SELECT avatar FROM #__comprofiler WHERE user_id= {$jcommentaarid}";
  $database->setQuery( $sql );
  $avatarmut = $database->loadResult();
?>

<div class="comment-avatar"><img src="images/comprofiler/tn<?php echo $avatarmut; ?>" title="<?php echo $avatarmut; ?>" width="36" height="36"/></div>
====================

Greetings,

Osman

I hope this doesn't burden your database too much.

I know, but it's better than nothing

I registered to this site specifically to say "thank you". Your code worked like a charm, and since my website is one of those "me and my friends" projects, I'm not terribly worried about too many database i/o's or anything like that.

You saved me quite a bit of time and sanity!

It works, thanks a lot!

It works as I have written before, but only when you are registered and you have the avatar. In any other case it gives broken picture instead of the picture of "no avatar". May be it can be repair in any simple way?

Hello,

Thanks for this, it works.

The photos have weird dimensions, though. Is it possible to display each picture with its original dimensions ?

Thanks in advance.

Actually, I figured out how not to resize avatars.
In previous code modification for /components/com_jcomments/tpl/default/tpl_comment.php

Replace

Code:

<?php
  $database = & JFactory::getDBO();
  $jcommentaarid = $comment->userid;
  $sql = "SELECT avatar FROM #__comprofiler WHERE user_id= {$jcommentaarid}";
  $database->setQuery( $sql );
  $avatarmut = $database->loadResult();
?>

<div class="comment-avatar"><img src="images/comprofiler/tn<?php echo $avatarmut; ?>" title="<?php echo $avatarmut; ?>" width="36" height="36"/></div>

with:

Code:

<?php
  $database = & JFactory::getDBO();
  $jcommentaarid = $comment->userid;
  $sql = "SELECT avatar FROM #__comprofiler WHERE user_id= {$jcommentaarid}";
  $database->setQuery( $sql );
  $avatarmut = $database->loadResult();
?>

<div class="comment-avatar"><img src="images/comprofiler/tn<?php echo $avatarmut; ?>" title="<?php echo $avatarmut; ?>/></div>

and in /components/com_jcomments/tpl/default/style.css

search for:

Code:

/* Avatar */
#comments .comment-avatar img {width: 32px;border: none !important;}

replace with:

Code:

/* Avatar */
#comments .comment-avatar img { resize:none; width: auto; height: auto; border: none !important;}

#comments .comment-avatar img { resize:none; width: auto; height: auto; border: none !important;}

this is just cb users use for from avatar gallery.About non user or uploading own avatar? Not working

Osman,
Many thanks for your modifications!
Works like a charm, but be aware that it doesn't work when GZIP compression in the Joomla Global Configuration is enabled!
It took me several hours before I found out that this should be disabled (at least on my site).
