#6298 closed defect (bug) (fixed)

Admin toolbar avatar wrong when visiting WP admin's options-discussion.php page

Reported by: henrywright's profile henry.wright Owned by: r-a-y's profile r-a-y

Description

Inside bp_core_fetch_avatar_filter() there is:

// Do not filter if inside WordPress options page
if ( 'options-discussion.php' == $pagenow )
    return $avatar;

This causes an issue when viewing the options-discussion.php in the WP admin area.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Upload a profile photo via /change-avatar/
  2. Visit the WP admin area, navigate around, and keep a close eye on your profile photo in the admin toolbar (top right-hand corner of the screen). You'll notice the profile photo displays nicely until you get to the options-discussion.php page (at which point you'll see something like the mystery person).

If we don't bail on discussion page, filter will break select "Default Avatar" setting and display BP avatar for every option. I think better solution will be to add BP avatar as an option to Default Avatar and respect users choice.

@Mamaduka

I'm not sure I agree an option for BP avatars under Default Avatar is a good idea. As a user, if I upload a profile photo then I expect it to display regardless of my 'default avatar' choice. The purpose of the 'default avatar' choice is set a fallback (for when there's no profile photo).

  • Milestone changed from Awaiting Review to Future Release

This might be tricky to fix. I think we'd likely need to use a particular hook to unregister our filter after we've drawn the toolbar but before the avatar list on the page.

Those were my thoughts too. But now get_avatar() accepts $args, this can be done fairly easily (see attached patch).

The catch is it'll also require a WordPress patch (which I'll submit separately and add a link here) so please don't commit this unless the WP patch is accepted.

@henry.wright Do you want to re-check this issue on WP 4.6 RC and see if it's been fixed for us? :)
