Anyone? I can’t find information on this anywhere
is what I got off of developer tools
LOL, you can’t see it here either
Firefox code-
explorercode-
If your on firefox one of the avatars shows up, if your on IE 8 neither of them show up
Paste your code snippets on:

Working for me in IE8.
Try deleting your temporary internet files. Or try a restart. Sometimes IE is screwy!
Also, IE8’s InPrivate filter could be blocking your images.
try http://www.vapersplace.com The avatars don’t show up in IE 8 but do in firefox. I’ve also has a few people try on their pc and it doesn’t work for them either. Any suggestions as to what it could be?
Been trying to figure this out all night. They still don’t work in IE 8. I’ve had about 15 people e-mail me from my website and say they are not working for them in IE either. What in the world could be causing this?
@Kevin; Needed a break, so had a look around and found your posts. Our avatars work fine in IE8, but those on your site don’t, so it’s probably your CSS. (They’re fine in Google Chrome Dev, too). Sleep and a fresh look helps!
I tried the default buddypress theme thinking it may be my theme and no luck. I also deactivated the default buddypress theme and the wordpress theme and no luck there either. Where would I look to see what might be causing the problem and what should I look for? The theme css? I didn’t have this problem until I enabled wpmu.
I also want to add that I didn’t have this problem until I enabled wpmu. Once I did that is when the problem occurred.
Same issue – avatars AND images not appearing. I was using Safari then I tried Firefox and saw the images until I refreshed the page and realized they were just cached. This all occurred after I updated to the latest versions.
@kevbow – Some sleep for me helped!
Your image URL from Pastebin worked, but when I went to your site in IE8, there was an additional backslash added to the avatar image URL:
http:///vapersplace.com/wp-content/uploads/avatars/1802/191f39155d4b7abce53b63d5972abc9c-bpthumb.jpg
This is an odd one for sure!
Can you please try the updated code for avatars and see if it fixes your problem?
https://trac.buddypress.org/browser/branches/1.2/bp-core/bp-core-avatars.php?rev=3055
I tried the code and it didn’t fix the problem. I also notice that http:/// now as well. It only happens in IE 8. Is there some sort of change I can make to the code to prevent that?
Your avatar URLs appear to be missing the leading “http:”. I think I remember reading about this bug before.
You can temporarily fix this by defining your BP_CUSTOM_URL in wp-config.php to:
define( ‘BP_AVATAR_URL’, ‘http:///nijmegeneet.nl/club/wp-content/uploads’ );
I did this and as you can see there are three backslashes in the code. Hence the 3 backslashes in the url which was causing the avatars not to upload on IE 8. PROBLEM SOLVED!
Ahh I see, so it was my fault from a previous thread!
Got to watch my typing!
