Excellent. Installed... but IE keeps giving me(and everyone else on my board) errors that say:
Error: 'document.forms.0.picture[...].value is null or not an object.
I have rehacked and it does the same thing.

I've installed this as well - seems to be working great for the most part (except)... I get this error when you click on the link that is supposed to show you ALL the avatars on a seperate page:
-------error CGI Error The specified CGI application misbehaved by not returning a complete set of HTTP headers. The headers it did return are:
Can't locate vars_config.cgi in @INC (@INC contains: D:inetpubplanethexwwwcgi-bin D:inetpubplanethexwwwcgi-binModules ./Modules . D:/Perl/lib D:/Perl/site/lib) at D:inetpubplanethexwwwcgi-binavatarlist.cgi line 23. -------end error

qasic Check your ZIP copy. Every time I try to download it, it keeps saying it is corrupted or invailed.

This hack is awesome except when i post the avatar doesn't appear at all. I know it has to do with the public forum topic. Because it appears eveywhere else just fine. But the img line you add doesn't seem to work in my post. It's just blank

Hmmm ... are your vars_*.cgi configured in the same directory as ultimatebb.cgi?

What's the URL for your board? What browser are you using?

I solved the problem. The hack is working great on 6.2.1 Beta Release 1.0
Only thing i see that is weird is that if a member hasn't selected an avatar, but has a picture in his/her profile, it shows up in the spot where the avatar should be.
Thanks Q

I'm waiting for a addon so users can put their own url in it. Are you going to release it or somebody else?

The top of the Avatar Readme states that the Avatar field takes place of the picture field

Use the externally defined avatars hack. It's available @ http://www.qasic.net .

I have no idea why I was getting this error, it must have been an error on my part. (I beyond compared 6.1.0.4 to 6.2.0) But I then upgraded to 6.2.1 Beta Release, and it is working fine. Thanks for the help.

It's either one or the other unfortunately. I'm unwilling to compromise the security built into this hack with the low-security present in the externally-defined avatar hack.

Change this to relfect a path a directory inside your webserver that is CHMOD 777.
Could someone explain this a little, not sure really what to do here.

In short, on UNIX you can ignore this. On Windows, change this to your UBB cache directory.

I'm hosted on a Unix server. What I did to get the auto install to work for me is to chmod the files that are to be hacked by auto install to 777. Then the upgraded went fine. After I changed them back to 755. Here's a good place to get Avatars http://www.freeavatars.net/

Everything works fine except the uploading of the avatars. If I browse to a location on my desktop I get the message after I hit upload:
"No file selected to upload."

This indicates that the File Name field is blank. When you click Browse and have selected a file, does the file path and name appear?

Thanks for your response. Yes, I am able to browse through my computer, and when I do, the file name shows in the taxtblock. But then when I hit upload, I get the blank message.
I am editing this to add that I am able to rename the file names perfectly fine, it's just the upload that gives me an error.

Ellen, are you on a UNIX server or a Windows server? If you're on a Windows server, have you modified UBBCGI.pm correctly to reflect a good TEMP path?

Menace,
Thanks for your post. Yes, those instructions have not been updated for UBB 6.2. Unfortunately, I'm not a layout specialist so I don't know what to change. Perhaps you can ask in the HTML forum? Thanks.

Tip on auto installer: After running auto installer, I had to upload cp_avatar.cgi and ubb_avatar.cgi in order for the hack to work correctly. I know that feature isn't supported, but a tip for those of you who might have a problem with those files

First of all, thanks for the great hack  . Everything seems to work perfect except one (important) thing: I can't upload  . When I pick the file and press the "update avatars" button I get the next error: No file selected to upload. » Use your browser's back button to return. What's wrong? I now sure the path + url are correct and that I picked a file which excists...

You can also upload via the ftp itself. Then it works perfect. I don't really care that I can't upload trough the cp, but it's a bug, so maybe you can fix it.
