logged in user’s avatar

I need to get the src for the bp->loggedin_user’s avatars. I am working on Birthdays for Events and I’d like to assign the user’s avatar to the birthday event by default.

All core template tags seem to return an entire <img> tag, and the $bp->loggedin_user doesn’t seem to have avatar field.

What am I missing?

I got it using this:

$avatar_file = get_usermeta( $bp->loggedin_user->id, “bp_core_avatar_v1” );

$url = $bp->root_domain . ‘/’ . $avatar_file;

but is there a more elegant way?

OK, the above code works *sometimes*… but not other times… hmm…

maybe you are looking for this:

<?php bp_loggedinuser_avatar_thumbnail() ?>

No, that functions *outputs* the image, I need its source.

bp_core_get_avatar( $bp->loggedin_user->id, 1, null, null, true )

That did the trick!

Thanks!
