XF 2.1 Higher resolution avatars

sandor_1234 · Nov 25, 2018

I recently bought xenforo so I'm kinda new to it and right now I'm trying to higher the resolution of avatars when viewing a thread:

Right now xenforo grabs a 96px version of my avatar:

How can I higher this resolution?

You are talking about avatars, right? XenForo does not have profile pictures.

Yes sorry for the misunderstanding.

Try changing avatar size from "m" to "l" in message_macros.html.

Change

Code:

<xf:avatar user="$user" size="m" defaultname="{$fallbackName}" itemprop="image" />

to

Code:

<xf:avatar user="$user" size="l" defaultname="{$fallbackName}" itemprop="image" />

But now its high resolution

You can try changing width in css

Code:

.message:not(.message--forceColumns) .message-avatar .avatar { 
    width: 96px;
    height: 96px;
    font-size: 58px;
}
@media (max-width: 650px) {
    .message:not(.message--forceColumns) .message-avatar .avatar {
        width: 48px;
        height: 48px;
        font-size: 29px;
    }
}

Try this:

Code:

.message:not(.message--forceColumns) div.message-avatar .avatar { 
    width: 96px;
    height: 96px;
    font-size: 58px;
}
@media (max-width: 650px) {
    .message:not(.message--forceColumns) div.message-avatar .avatar {
        width: 48px;
        height: 48px;
        font-size: 29px;
    }
}

and this time put it in extra.less, not in message.less

Thanks but for some reason it's still the same:

I can give you admin permissions on my site if that would be easier.

Try this in extra.less

CSS:

.message-avatar .avatar {
    max-width: 140px;
    max-height: 140px;
}

Play around with the height/width till it fits.
