BuddyPress.org

Okay so I looked in the database, in wp_options there’s a “show_avatars” row and it had no value set. I set the option_value to 1 and everything worked.

Any clue as to why there was no value in this option? Not even a 0, as in disabled.
Where in the buddypress settings is the checkbox to alter this value even? Am I overlooking something? I’m confused.

The checkbox “Allow registered members to upload avatars” only seems to control the “bp-disable-avatar-uploads” value in wp_options
