Been having a look at why I can’t get avatars to crop and display properly in BP under Nginx. They upload fine in the proper directories, just don’t display properly.

Image links are missing the /wp-content/ part and appear like http://mysite.com/blogs.dir/1/files/avatars/1/dpavatar150.png.

So been playing around with my server over the last few weeks and it definately seems like an Nginx rewrite issue on my original config.

To prove the point, on the same server/WPMU setup I’ve installed Apache2 and can flip between a number of setups. All works fine on Apache, even works fine running on Apache anf using Nginx as a proxy using the WP Nginx Integrator plugin. I can upload, crop and see avatars all I want.

As soon as I flip back to Nginx standalone setup I get the avatar issues back. I could settle for the Apache / Nginx setup but Nginx & FastCGI seems to have the leading edge on things from what I’ve been playing with so far.

So my Nginx config is below and would be greatful if someone could point me in the right direction.
