Correct use of Avatar field

  • I’ve one custom field for Avatar (user image).

    From admin side it works fine.. but how can I display that image in user profile as thumbnail (thumbnail size may be 80px x 80px).

    I’m able to retrieve the url of the picture uploaded, but that is the full sized picture uploaded as Avatar.. and that is just a URL of the file uploaded at that field and not the thumbnail that I need to display. I tried the crop feature provided as options in plugin, but that doesn’t have any impact.

    How can I correctly use Avatar field to enable authors to upload their avatar image and display that on articles they write and the author template.

    Pls advise.

    Look the documentation, should tell you how to get the thumbnail link.
    If doesn’t work provide the code you’re using.

    Hi, Thank you for hint.

    I reviewed it made some changes… and it seems to be working fine, but still the avatar image is not of the thumbnail size.. although it is now not a full image size which I uploaded.

    I want it to use more smaller size… size that is set in media for thumbnail.

    Or can I specify different size for this thumbnail?

    Pls advise.

    And thank you for this great plugin.

    You can try to use CSS with the background-size attribute.
