On Groups->GROUPX->forums

all the avatars are showing as mystery men even though I uploaded an avatar. Everywhere else teh avatar shows.

This is the code pulling the avatar in the Groups->GROUPX->forums :

<?php bp_the_topic_poster_avatar() ?>

What should it be there instead?

bp_the_topic_poster_avatar() pulls the avatar of the people who post in a particular forum thread. It does not pull the overall group avatar.

Do all your users have unique avatars?

Are you on a dev site?

Log into WPMU’s backend as Site Admin and navigate to “BuddyPress > General Settings > Default User Avatar” and see if you have selected the Mystery Man avatar. If so, change it to something else and save your settings.

Fresh start installations, I made three users two with unique avatars and one without.

I change Mystery Man to Monster. Now all it shows are the Monster.

WPMU 2.8.4a + BP 1.0.3 + BB 1.0.2

I posted a topic in a forum from both sides BBpress & BuddyPress both give the same icons.

Sidenote:

On BBpress Forums I had to put this

<?php echo bp_core_get_avatar( get_post_author_id() ); ?>

but get_post_author_id() doesn’t work in WP/BP side.

Additional:

The admin section of WPMU “/wp-admin/wpmu-users.php” the users’ avatars are different too.
