The Kunena team has announce the arrival of Kunena 7.1.0 [K 7.1.0] in stable which is now available for download as a native Joomla extension for J! 5.4.x/6.0.x./6.1.x./6.2.x This version addresses most of the issues that were discovered in K 6.2 / K 6.3 / K 6.4 / K7.0 and issues discovered during the last development stages of K 7.1
Just a reminder: K6.4.16 receives only securities fixes until end of 2026, so it's advised for users to upgrade to K7.1.
Question Importing existing Users Avatar
We just installed the latest version of the forum. It seems that all our existing Joomla users are also associated with the forum so they can login.
But when they post a generic user avatar appears.
Is there a way to use a existing Joomla users avatar with the forum?
We also have a K2 forum on the site, would this be causing a conflict?
Thanks,
John

thanks for the reply.
So of the quick answer is no, would there be a method or process? Or is this something that each user must manually change via their profile?

What is your question exactly?
Is it changing the default avatar image?
- change image \media\kunena\avatars\nophoto.jpg
- also change the images on \media\kunena\avatars\resized

We were hoping to use existing K2 avatars with the Kunena Forum.
When you stated "Quick answer is no." I thought that there might be another not so quick way to import the existing avatars.
Basically the Kunena Forum recognizes the Joomla/K2 user in that, a user can login via the Kunena Forum using the Joomla/K2 login credentials.
But the Kunena profile does not update the avatar to match the existing Joomla/K2 avatar.
Is there a method to get the K2 avatar to the Kunena profile? Or do we just have to do it manual via the Profile section in Kunena?
Let me know if this makes senses
