[para]

Hi im trying to do a check on a xprofile field “Gender” as i want to have a different default avatar depending on whether the user is male or female, i have the following code which doesnt seem to work (it displays female avatar for both).

Im guessing you cant check xprofile feilds like this in bp-custom.php, can anyone point me in the right direction on how i can accomplish this?

Thanks in adavnce for any help.

Regards

Tony

`function myavatar_add_default_avatar( $url )
{
global $bp;
if (bp_get_profile_field_data(‘field=Gender’) === “Male”) :
return get_stylesheet_directory_uri() .’/_inc/images/default_avatar_male.jpg’;
else:
return get_stylesheet_directory_uri() .’/_inc/images/default_avatar_female.jpg’;
endif;
}
add_filter( ‘bp_core_mysteryman_src’, ‘myavatar_add_default_avatar’ );`

Thinking about it, im going about this the wrong way, if i want the avatars to change site wide i need a different approach …

hello,

I try to do the same thing. I want to display a specific picture following the gender of the members.

I use add_filter and the picture of the profil is the good one but all others pictures from sidebar, for example, are the same…

Have you finally find a solution for this issue ?

Thanks in advance,

My test code :
function bp_remove_gravatar ($image, $params, $item_id, $avatar_dir, $css_id, $html_width, $html_height, $avatar_folder_url, $avatar_folder_dir) {
$default = get_stylesheet_directory_uri() .’/images/bp_default_avatar.gif’;
if( $image && strpos( $image, “gravatar.com” ) ){
if ( bp_get_profile_field_data( ‘field=Gender’ ) == ‘Female’ ) {
$default = get_stylesheet_directory_uri() .’/images/def_f_avatar.gif’;
return ‘‘;
}
if ( bp_get_profile_field_data( ‘field=Gender’ ) == ‘Male’ ) {
$default = get_stylesheet_directory_uri() .’/images/def_m_avatar.gif’;
return ‘‘;
}
else {
return $image;
}
} else {
return $image;
}
}
add_filter(‘bp_core_fetch_avatar’, ‘bp_remove_gravatar’, 1, 9 );
