[SOLVED] New avatar url was created by activha

Hello

Moving to CB 2.6 it seems like some links are broken when we call the link to an avatar like this and avatar is set to initials only

Code:

$refavatar = $cbUser->replaceUserVars ('[cb:userdata field="avatar" /]');

and

Code:

<img src="<?php echo $refavatar; ?>" class="w-50 rounded rounded-circle img-fluid img-raised">

Initials based avatars don't have a URL. They're PHP generated SVGs. I do not recommend using either of those approaches to output avatars. I recommend always outputting them with HTML intact then use CSS to add any additional styling you may need. If you still want to do what you're doing then I suggest not using initials based avatars as it doesn't fit your usecase.
