User Pictures in Posts

Posted by Steel Rat on March 12, 2007 at 7:03pm

Hello again all,

I want to allow user pictures in posts and comments, but only in the forums. Is there a code snippet I can use in node.tpl.php that will only show user pictures if the Vocabulary = "forum"?

Thanks!

node-forum.tpl.php

Copy your node.tpl.php and rename the copied file to node-forum.tpl.php.

in the original node.tpl.php find the line:

<?php
if ($picture) print $picture; 
?>

and delete that code.
but the node-forum.tpl.php should have it.
It may not be accurately the same code as given above, depending on your theme.

On garland, the code to find is:

<?php
print $picture 
?>

so you'll end up with

node.tpl.php - without the print $picture code
node-forum.tpl.php - with the print $picture code.

And configure your theme: admin » build » themes » settings
to show user pictures on nodes and comments.

Good luck!

Thanks!

Unfortunately I won't know if it works until I can get another problem worked out, which is why $picture is always false.

There are two places to insure user pictures work.

user pictures must first be enabled in administer -> user settings -> Pictures
Then they can be enabled at the them layer in administer -> themes -> configure

I had done both of those

I had done both of those (have setup and am running several Drupal 4.7 sites), and it just wasn't working. After I stopped messing with it and went on to other things it suddenly started working. So perhaps it was a cacheing issue.

Anyway, the node-forum.tpl.php fix worked perfectly for what I wanted to do.

Thanks!

investigate the advanced profile module

beyond that: get your site updated to 5.12 to remain as secure and bug free as possible.
