Not Supported Uses Plugins Re-usable Code  

Created on and tested with 4.1.11, although it will probably work with most other versions.

This Modification allows an Admin to make Avatar thumbnails display in the Who's Online portion of the What's Going On section (usually located at the bottom of the Forum Home).

This modification allows the Admin to specify maximum height and/or width to the thumbnails. It also allows an Admin to specify a specific image to use as a default thumbnail for those users without avatars. Alternatively, it allows for an Admin to decide if Users withut avatars should jsut have their username displayed as normal.

Included in the settings (and disabled by default) is an option to "give credit" to CleverBaka. All this does is add a link to my forum in your forum's footer. It's entirely optional, but I hope you'll give credit if you don't mind the tiny bit of clutter in your footer.

To install, simply import the provided XML file in your Product Manager.

You have full permission to modify this to suit your needs, and I'm always open to input.

What this Modification does [Technical]:
--adds fields to the query that searches for logged in users.
--adds table joins to the query that searches for logged in users.
--does not add any queries
--replaces the "Marked Up Username" with an image of the user's avatar.
