Question Change the max size of avatars

I'm sure there's an easy answer to this one, but I can't find it on the user-interface, nor the code, nor in these forums..

How can I change the maximum avatar display size from its current (on my site and this one) 144px?
I would prefer something a little smaller, say 80 or 100px.
Looking at my site (or this one) with Firebug suggests the size is hard-coded into an element style:

<img style="max-width: 144px; max-height: 144px;" alt="" src="xxxxxxx.jpg" class="kavatar">

Looking through the code, that size actually gets computed somehow. That's where I get lost :blink:

No, I'm using 1.6.1. Did I post to the wrong forum? Sorry.

I moved your topic to the Common Questions category because I'm fairly sure that Kunena iteself isn't broken. I dug around the configuration options but I didn't find any answers for you. I looked at the last time you posted a configuration report and it showed you were using K 1.6.0 - that's why I asked the question.

As you say, there should be an easy answer. Have you changed any of your configuration parameters? Perhaps a reset of your config. params. might be advisable? I didn't see that you were using a third-party product to handle your avatar images. I'm just trying to give you a couple of quick-fix ideas to go on with.

Thanks. I also don't think its exactly anything broken in Kunena, but it was/is a surprise that its not an easily configurable item.

I did try all of those thoughts. If you check here you will see your own avatar is also 144px, so its pretty standard, and no, I don't use any external avatar software. I prefer a simple life!

Clearly it is not as simple as just setting a single avatar size, because it does need to be re-sized for use in a range of different locations. But I had hoped for at least a max size control somewhere.

It looks to me like the 144px is derived from some other dimension(s) (I got lost once the code moved into javascript, which I struggle with). So if someone could tell me what the calculation works from, I can try changing that.

I hadn't noticed how BIG my avatar image was. No matter. It's probably settable in the CSS.

Try this (add it to your site template, at the end)

#Kunena span.kavatar img {
max-height:80px !important;
}
