Sorry if I initially put this in the wrong place. After updating to the new version of the module it stopped working. I can upload avatars, but can no longer manage them and when I go to the management page it runs very slowly. I do have a large number of avatars (255) -- but this was not a problem before. Now I briefly see radio buttons, then the filenames of the avatars appear -- no pictures, and there is nothing that I can do with the filenames (I cannot edit them). Again sorry that I don't know if this is a Code or UI problem. Thanks.

Well, the problem is, that the database contains old image paths. You need to clear the databasetable and generate new paths.

You should simply go to phpmyadmin (for mysql), then select your database (when not already selected), and select the table avatar_selection. Now you only need to click EMPTY and all your old imagepaths will be deleted.

To obtain the new paths you simply go to your site -> Administration -> Site configuration -> Avatar Selection -> Upload,
then open "Bulk Upload", check "Scan for new avatars", and press Upload.
That's all.

It has worked on my page...

bye, Paul

Thanks Paul,

I did what you said and I'm close to a solution. I have my avatars back but they are not in columns and rows any more -- just one long row that goes beyond the right boundary of my web page -- is there any way to get them to fit within the browser. Thanks a million.

I could't reproduce this problem. Maybe it's something wrong with the stylesheet. Try to view your site with another browser.
Or it's an issue of your theme, try another theme. Maybe that will help.

I'm using the release 6.x-1.2, so maybe it's already fixed in Drupal 6 version, dunno.

Paul,

I tried Firefox and the problem does not exist there -- before the last upgrade it worked (meaning icons did not go beyond the browser boundary) in both. I still assume most people are working with IE -- thanks for your help.

Sorry for the lateness in replying, I've been away for the last month.

scotese: I can't reproduce your issue with the avatar images continuing beyond the browser boundary. I've tested the 5.x-2.4 version in both IE7 and firefox, with over 50 avatars and the row was correctly wrapped onto the subsequent lines. I'm using the default garland theme. Are you using a different theme? Also, perhaps ensure you correctly upgraded the css file that came with the last release. Perhaps also try clearing your browser cache - it could have been using an older cached version.

Cheers,
Stella

Marking as "won't fix" since no more information forthcoming and over a month of inactivity. Please feel free to re-open the issue if it's still occurring with the latest release.
