Advance Profile Kit with Meez Module

The easiest way would be fore the Meez module to implement the author pane hook as described here: http://drupal.org/node/326809 . Then you could just edit advanced_profile_author-pane.tpl.php to choose between the images.

Michelle,

Thank you for getting back to me. I apologize for my ignorance, but I'm still getting my wings with Drupal & php, but can you clarify the following for me.

function MODULENAME_preprocess_author_pane(&$variables) = I would change to
"function meez_preprocess_author_pane(&$variables)"?

$variables['MODULENAME_VARIABLENAME'] = MODULENAME_FUNCTION($account);= I would change to

$variables['meez_meezuser'] = meez_FUNCTION($account); / I'm not sure if I change "FUNCTION" and if so to what?

Then save the file as meez.

Also is there anything else that I missed about that I should be changing in the code below and I couldn't locate "advanced_profile_author-pane.tpl.php

Thank you so much again for your help.

<?php
/**
* Implementation of hook_preprocess_author_pane().
*/
function MODULENAME_preprocess_author_pane(&$variables) {
// The full user object for the author

$account = $variables['account'];

$image_path = $variables['image_path'];

$variables['MODULENAME_VARIABLENAME'] = MODULENAME_FUNCTION($account);
}

Well, I moved this here in the hopes that Greg could help you out. I've never even heard of the Meez module before this and am not familiar with its code. Basically you want this added to the meez module:

I have no idea what the function to get the avatar is. Assuming there is one, of course. That's why I moved it to this queue. :)

advanced_profile_author-pane.tpl.php is in the advanced profile kit module. You'd need to change:

to something like:

(Untested just typed in the browser.)

Michelle

Alternately, if Greg doesn't want to add this, you can just put that as yet unknown function call right in advanced_profile_author-pane.tpl.php in place of the variable. :)

Michelle

Michelle.

You are super quick! When I grow up I want to be just like you :-)! I checked the APK & the only thing that I see close to advanced_profile_author-pan.tpl.php is advance_profile_userinfo.tpl and this is what's inside "$picture - returned from theme_user_picture". In the theme there's user-picture.tpl , the following code is ..

You are correct there is a get_avatar function. the code for the meez module is below.

Your #1 FAN :-)

Oh, sorry, I missed that you were using an old version of APK. The hook I gave you will only work with the current version. You can call Meez's code from within the userinfo template but you'll have to modify the one in the module because there were issues with that old version not recognizing the version in your theme.

Michelle

The current meez_get_avatars function isn't about returning the path to the image...it's about getting the image tag for the image.

Providing this support will require some refactoring of the code.

@cocogodiva - can you review and test this code? You would need to use the newly created meez_get_img function to get the image file.

Just to be clear, what my code above is expecting is the equivalent of theme_user_picture(). Not that it _has_ to be that but that's what I was assuming would be put there. So it's basically saying use the Meez HTML if there is any and use the default $picture if there isn't.

Michelle

Greggles,

Of course I can review and test the could.

Just to verify, the ++ in patch are the snippets of code that I will need to add to the meez module and will I be adding the meez_get_img function to meez module (do I need to remove the function meez_get_avatars or can it remain?). I will also need to add the meez_get_img function to the userinfo template?

@Michelle.. since the advance_profile_userinfo.tpl doesn't exist, I will need to add the following code in the advance_profile_userinfo.tpl - where currently it reads "$picture - returned from theme_user_picture", I will need to replace that with this

I'm off to fiddle with the code. You guys ROCK!

@cocogodiva - As I said, the hook for Meez to create the variable won't work in old versions of APK. That was added as part of the rewrite. You will need to add the full function call yourself.

Michelle

Greggles,

I've been away but I will be testing the patch shortly. I'll keep you posted.
