$picture in Garland theme

www.richardspro... - March 18, 2008 - 19:32

I'm creating my own theme and I've used garland as my starting point.

In node.tpl.php there is a variable called $picture. Where does it get this from? I'd like my nodes to include pictures, but I'm a bit confused about how this all joins up.

Thanks for your help.

Richard.

That's the user's avatar. You need to have user pictures in posts/comments enabled in your theme as well as enabling picture support in user settings for that to have a value.

Hi Michelle,

Thanks for that. User avatar pictures didn't even cross my mind as a possibility.
