the ashow() function is always available. I use it – probably – daily!
Where are you using it within the code?

they just work.. but of course, they need data to show…  are you sure those variables exist where you have ashow?

ashow just means display the object or variable…

Hmm That is wierd then, because they are still same place as where you put during last trouble shooting.

And there is data in the variables, since the avatar is showing.

Any ideas ? could it be a server setting ?

I am sorry but I really do have no idea. I have been using then just this morning all over the code with no trouble and use them daily. I know of no server setting that could possibly effect these tools. Have you tried the php built in echo and print_r statements instead? That is all these functions do – call the php functions with a little bit of formatting…

Okay, I’ve found out that Gravatar cache, changes value/data for thoose fields i wanted to get data from.

After disabling the plugin, i get the expected data.

But now i still have the issue of Gravatars with only rating X or R are not showing.

It has been “ticked” in avatar options, and when i look into wp_sfoptions > sfavatars I can see sfgmaxrating is “4”, and this value changes if i change rating in options.

But gravatars with ratings other than PG are not showing.

Any ideas would be appriciated.

yes, why I had asked you to disable that plugin previously when I was working…

what do you mean not showing? what avatar do you get?  please post the url to such an avatar…

when looking at avatar URL it shows :

And i can see the gravatar when cliking the link, But avatar is not showing in forum/profile.

The gravatar is working fine in my WordPress site.

link above seems not to work : here is link without http://

0.gravatar.com/avatar/ac38eb1eaad0c2c07ef90a0d2264f893?d=404&s=90&r=X

sorry, not following… what are you seeing for the avatar?  error?  blank?  default?

Hello

I am seign the default Avatar in simplepress forum. in WordPress it does show the gravatar.

I Can see the Gravatar if i set the Rating to G in Gravatar account for the avatar.

Regards

 René

do you still have the gravatar cache plugin enabled??

No that plugin was disabled.

Is there someway i can check ratingcheck function to see output from this.

//Rene

you can use ashow on the url in request to gravatar.com… the only
thing we do is pass the rating to gravatar.com…

a couple of slight differences that seem to have no impact… the url
to gravatar from wp is 0.gravatar.com… ours is just gravatar.com…
both seem to work find directly… also, wp now passes size= as s= and
rating= as r=… but again both seem to work directly… of course,
gravatar.com continues to support the older style too for backward
compat (or is it vice versa?)…

Hmm. the very wierd this is that :

ashow($avatarData->url);

Shows : Working Avatar link.

http://0.gravatar.com/avatar/4998c167ac4a439cac627f889016d1de?d=404&s=90&r=X

But the is no picture shown.

So even though Avatar URL is working the avatar is not shown.

Is there another place where you check Rating ? since sfgmaxrating is correct set to 4 and link ends with r=X
