Yes thats the block,   when a user logs in instead of showing there avatar picture I would like to diaplay an image from this url:-

"http://avatar.xboxlive.com/avatar/{memberrow.custom_fields.CUSTOM_FIELD}/avatar-body.png"

I think that {memberrow.custom_fields.CUSTOM_FIELD} is the Custom Profile Field I set.


this is the image that would be displayed if I signed in

avatar-body

which is "http://avatar.xboxlive.com/avatar/n1cks21/avatar-body.png"

hope thats make sense

No It Didnt work    when I clicked on the image link it was "http://avatar.xboxlive.com/avatar//avatar-body.png%3C/img%3E%3Cbr%20/%3E%3Cbr%20/%3E%3Cspan%20class=" so it obviously didnt know what {memberrow.custom_fields.CUSTOM_FIELD} was and I am not sure what all that junk is after the png,  as a test I tried it in my memberlist_body.tpl :-

Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]
<!-- BEGIN custom_fields -->
    <td class="row1 row-center">{memberrow.custom_fields.CUSTOM_FIELD}</td>
    img src="http://avatar.xboxlive.com/avatar/{memberrow.custom_fields.CUSTOM_FIELD}/avatar-body.png</img>
    <!-- END custom_fields -->


the image didnt show however the link was "http://avatar.xboxlive.com/avatar/n1cks21/avatar-body.png%3C/img%3E%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%3Ctd%20class="

which shows it did know what {memberrow.custom_fields.CUSTOM_FIELD} was it just didnt work because of all the junk after png


I dont want to upload the avatars to my site as members do change them every now and then and it would mean uploading them all the time.

hope that makes sense

remove memberrow. twice from this code

Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]
<!-- BEGIN custom_fields -->
   <td class="row1 row-center">{memberrow.custom_fields.CUSTOM_FIELD}</td>
   img src="http://avatar.xboxlive.com/avatar/{memberrow.custom_fields.CUSTOM_FIELD}/avatar-body.png</img>
   <!-- END custom_fields -->


memberrow is used in the memberlist code and the variable is not used in the block...

let me know

I tried it in user_block_block, but got the same problem no picture and the URL was:-

"http://avatar.xboxlive.com/avatar//avatar-body.png%3C/img%3E%3Cbr%20/%3E%3Cbr%20/%3E%3Cspan%20class="

again it doesnt know what  {custom_fields.CUSTOM_FIELD} is and I still dont know what all that junk is after the png "%3C/img%3E%3Cbr%20/%3E%3Cbr%20/%3E%3Cspan%20class="

Well for example in memberlist.php you have this code..

Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]
    // Custom Profile Fields MOD - BEGIN
    include_once($phpbb_root_path . 'includes/functions_profile_fields.' . $phpEx);
    $profile_data = get_fields('WHERE view_in_memberlist = ' . VIEW_IN_MEMBERLIST . ' AND users_can_view = ' . ALLOW_VIEW);

    foreach($profile_data as $field)
    {
        $template->assign_block_vars('custom_field_names', array('FIELD_NAME' => $field['field_name']));
    }

    $template->assign_var('NUMCOLS', count($profile_data) + 12);
    // Custom Profile Fields MOD - END


and

Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]
        // Custom Profile Fields MOD - BEGIN
        foreach($profile_data as $field)
        {
            $name = text_to_column($field['field_name']);
            $sql2 = "SELECT $name FROM " . USERS_TABLE . "
                WHERE user_id = $user_id";
            if(!($result2 = $db->sql_query($sql2)))
                message_die(GENERAL_ERROR,'Could not get custom profile data','',__LINE__,__FILE__,$sql2);

            $val = $db->sql_fetchrow($result2);
            $val = displayable_field_data($val[$name],$field['field_type']);

            $template->assign_block_vars('memberrow.custom_fields',array('CUSTOM_FIELD' => $val));
        }
        // Custom Profile Fields MOD - END


this  pulls the info from your database and the template code you used above will then show the correct ode in the block...

you then need to find the code out of the above that fits the user_block.php file to show correctly...

hope the gives you a few hints..

sorry, let me explain..... my site is an xbox 360 site and when members sign up they get asked for there xbox gamertag (custom field), anyone's xbox avatar can been seen at the url of "http://avatar.xboxlive.com/avatar/(gamertag)/avatar-body.png", the best example I can give is if you check My Site you can see my xbox avatar now,  if/when I change my avatar through xbox live that picture automatically updates.

all I need to do is pull the info from the database from my Custom Field and insert it into the url, so that when a member signes in they have there own xbox avatar shown in user_block_block which sounds simply but I have no idea how
