Gravatar plugin

Post by Andyman77 »

I use the gravatar plugin, it's a neat idea. However, there is a problem, if I chose to use the gravatar feature, it creates a folder in the uploads folder. In doing this, this affects the media manager, ie, it searches for images in that folder, where there aren't any. Mind, this only happens if you chose to use the cache feature.

So, is there a way to either, tell the media manager to not look in certain folders for files, or to have the gravatar to create it's folder in the templete_c folder.

I would prefer the former solution.

TIA,

Andy

Hi!

Sadly currently there's neither option, but you could maybe easily edit the gravatar plugin and replace "upload" (or $serendipity['uploadPath']) with "templates_c"?

I'll try to look into this for future versions of the plugin!

HTH,

Hiya,

I have fixed the problem:
Line 298 in serendipity_event_gravatar.php

$cache_dir = $serendipity['serendipityPath'] . $serendipity['uploadPath'] . '/gravatar';

to:

$cache_dir = $serendipity['serendipityPath'] . PATH_SMARTY_COMPILE . '/gravatar';

now the gravatar folder is now in templetes_c.

Ta for the tip :)
