Fixed Mouse hover on avatar shows default instead of hand cursor

[Steffen]

Affected version

2.0.4

When I mouse hover on the user menu then XenForo shows the hand cursor (fine):



But when I hover exactly over my avatar it shows the default cursor:



This issue is not limited to users not having a custom avatar. It exists for users that have a custom avatar, too.

The cause seems to be the following CSS:

.avatar:not(a) {
    cursor: default;
}

I think that’s reasonable. The avatar isn’t linked in this case

 

[Steffen]

Clicking the avatar does the same thing as clicking the username next to it: It opens the user menu.

The avatar is visually part of the button and clicking it yields the same result as clicking another part of the button. I therefore think it should have the same mouse hover cursor.

I'm also finding that, the Avatar also opens the menu so does seem to be a link.

My bad.

On reflection, the correct CSS would be cursor: inherit rather than cursor: default.

 

[Mr Lucky]

If it's inherit, does it even need to be there at all?

That's actually a very good question. Perhaps not, but I'm currently working on the assumption we were overriding it for specific reasons in the first place.
