Question uploading avatar gallery

Hi guys,

I have been trying to upload a avatar gallery, but I just can't seem to get it right. I am using Kunena 1.7.

I read this: docs.kunena.org/index.php/How_to_add_an_other_avatar_gallery , and I would create a new subdirectory in joomla/media/kunena/attachments/legacy/avatars/gallery/, but I can't even find a folder called /fbfiles..

I also tried what is noted in the joomla backend (to put the gallery into /components/com_kunena/avatars/gallery), but again this folder (avatars) does not exist. I even created one, but it does not work.

Help! Thanks

Cheers,

Calvin

I'm sorry. As you see from the article How to add an other avatar gallery , this was written for an older version of Kunena and the information is now obsolete. Unfortunately there isn't a newer version of this information to help you. Perhaps someone might like to update that page?

This isn't really a supported feature, but this is my understanding of what you're supposed to do

1. You upload a folder of images into ../media/kunena/attachments/legacy/avatars/. Let's say, for argument's sake, we create a folder called ../media/kunena/attachments/legacy/avatars/Personal_gallery
2. You edit your profile, select Avatar image bag
3. You click the pull-down in the "Select Avatar From Gallery"
4. Locate Personal_gallery from the available options
5. Click Personal_gallery
6. You should now see an array of images from the "personal gallery"

However, I haven't tried this and I have no idea if the feature works the way that I've described it.

Okay great, I will give it a try (when I am back from work) and tell you whether it worked in a few hours! Thanks again!

How did you go? Did you get the issue sorted out?

Yes! Thank you very much. I did it a tiny bit differently though. I deleted the standard avatars and pasted the avatars I wanted into the standard gallery folder. This way you don't have to select another gallery! Thanks again so much! Thumbs up!

I did it exactly as explained, but when I select the different gallery I am redirected to the first tab of my profile. When I go back to the avatar tab the drop-down list is on standard again.

Could you tell me what I'm doing wrong?
