How to modify the avatar's size

Post by binoho »

I just joined. As I work on changing our forum template, I've discovered that resizing avatars is not possible. I can't seem to resize the avatars due to a variable called avatars.

I have a unique design for the initial post in my theme so that it has more room. Because they are a little too large, there are currently no avatars on the first subject. Although there is no method to summon avatars outside of themes without modifying phpBB code, I still want them.

So, if an RFC is made, is this something you would take into consideration?

You're more than welcome to create a ticket and then even submit a pull request for consideration for core. However avatar resizing might be too big of a feature to put into a 3.3 release. Best thing to do though is to open a ticket & PR and start the discussion.

Have you considered if this would be something you'd be able to achieve through an extension though? I'll admit I haven't done any research into the avatar functionality before posting here so I'm not sure, but at the very least if it's possible then you could have that feature now rather than waiting for a possible merge into core.
