Gizzy, you da man, but I'm gonna make my members suffer and delete their PMs just like I had to! LOL

----

I have a couple questions, and I ask that you forgive me if they've been asked/answered elsewhere ...

Why don't the member numbers appear under member names/avatars? I found that # to be invaluable whenever I went into the control panel to do something with individual member files. It's a PITA to have to "search" for the person and then plug the # in.

---

Speaking of avatars, why don't the avatars appear in the I.E. browser?

---

That's all the ?s I can think of right now. My brain is fried!

So far, the feedback I've been receiving from my community has been extremely positive. \:\)

awwe purging pm's is mean! I'm not sure what kind of community you have, but we run a tech forum so if i where to purge pm's i'd be purging reference data, contact info, server data, design specifications... wow...

IT was discussed and found to be pointless to have it there during cleanup of the code pages (i believe), you can just click the "view profile link" (or hover over it) and it'll tell you the user number in the link itself (you're member "52"). Additionally, from the view user screen there is a link to edit the user in the cp. Having the number shown on the posts when it's already shown numerous times for all of the links (see the popup when you click on a nickname) seemed kind of redundant (as it was already presant).

If you do'nt set the height and width (aka leave the fields blank) in the cpanel the software will show a value of blank, which IE interprets as 0x0; I think 7.1 will have it set to not show any value for height and width if the fields are left blank.

gimme more questions, i am the Gizzy Monster! hehe...

still hyped up on energy drinks...

Ah. That explains it!

Bring on 7.1! LOL


I do have another question. In the past, with Classic, all registration requests were sent to only my e-mail address. Now they--and other administrative type tasks--are being sent to ALL my admins' addies.

Is there any way I can have the notifications sent to just my e-mail?

As I posted on the previous page in this thread, IF THE IMPORT didn't carry over your avatar values, you can perform the following query to set all avatar widths and heights from 0 to whatever you wish:

 Code:
update ubbt_USER_PROFILE set USER_AVATAR_WIDTH='64',USER_AVATAR_HEIGHT='64' where USER_AVATAR_WIDTH='0' and USER_AVATAR_HEIGHT='0'


If all your avatars are the same width/height, you can change the 64's to whatever your avatars are...

But set the max values in CP first and see if that's all it was...

jgeoff, thats great if all of your avatars are the same size, but who has all avitars as the same size? imo a better solution would be to drop the height/width from the template and let the images load as they will, versus forcing a height and width on them all (I don't think i have more than maybe 2 avatars that are 80x80, and have hundreds using other dimensions).

I do! \:D

I like to keep things tidy, so all the "house" avatars I created are the same size - the same as my max size. Those who choose to upload or link to other avatars are still forced to that size (originally 64x64 but I upped it to 72x72 since converting) anyway.

That fix was because my old avatars were brought in as 0x0 (for whatever reason), yet they all should've been 64x64. I also had to do that because now that my new size is 72x72, I wanted the original avatars to remain at 64x64 without being resized up.

I made this suggestion so at least her avatars would show up, in the mean time. ;\)

lol, I may have to make another mod... one that is capable of checking avitars and grabbing their size; although i'm not sure of compatability at this time with it lol... It'd be a ways off though...

I'm still working on an addon to edit the pm tables to find currupt pm's and purge them from the db; should be working within the next week or so shoudl i have the time

LOL -- sorry I missed your suggestion before. I told my members what the deal was--and I think most are for waiting until 7.1 comes out so that their avatars aren't skewed looking.

So yes, that means my site's avatars are all various sizes! \:D
