[SOLVED] User lists not picking up the Empty Default image

Hi,

The user lists are not picking up the custom Empty Default image.

Also, I've tried many combinations in the Layout but it still not working, ie:

[cb:if avatar!~"/(nophoto_n|tnnophoto_n)\.png$/"][value][/cb:if]
[cb:if avatar=~"/(nophoto_n|tnnophoto_n)\.png$/"]<img src="[cb:config param="live_site" /]/components/com_comprofiler/plugin/templates/default/images/avatar/MYnophoto.png" />[/cb:if]

Please advice?

It's not necessary to do that at all anymore. You can specify new default images on a per image field basis now by editing the image field then under Parameters > Image Display then adjusting "Empty Default" as necessary. New defaults should be stored in the following location.

Image Fields:
components/com_comprofiler/plugin/templates/default/images/avatar/

Canvas Field:
components/com_comprofiler/plugin/templates/default/images/canvas/

As for your issue though maybe wrong layout? Userlist uses the "Userlist Value Layout" layout.

I've already specified MYnophoto.png as the new default image in Parameters > Image Display.

It gets the image for the profile but not for the list.

I know the list is supposed to get the specified new default image but I don't know why for my list it's not working and every time I update CB I'm forced to override the images in: components/com_comprofiler/plugin/templates/default/images/avatar/ as it always goes back to nophoto_n.png and tnnophoto_n.png.

I've tried the Layout override but even then its not picking up MYnophoto.png as the default image.

What could be wrong?

Anyway, I've managed to overcome this problem by creating a Custom HTML field and calling the avatar in it by [cb:userfield field="avatar" /], and then using that field in the user list. Now the user list finally gets the right default image. :lol:

When you supply a new default image you need to supply a fullsize and a thumbnail size. Userlist usage uses thumbnail size and is probably why it's not finding your image. The thumbnail size should be smaller and named the same as the fullsize except prefixed with "tn".

After all this years I've thought I know more, I've been so wrong :blink:. Thank you for enlightening me. lol
