Description
Avatars handles profile images of wiki users. Every user has an automatically generated avatar created or can upload his personal image.
Usage / Features
This extension adds an option to each user's page to change his profile image. In the footer of the page "User settings" users can see their current profile image and the link "Change profile picture". Clicking on this link opens a dialog offering several options for setting a profile image:
- A new image can be uploaded
- A image has already been uploaded to the wiki, or an image from the web (through URL) can be used
- A new avatar can be generated
Configuration
Some aspects of this extension can be configured on Special:BlueSpicePreferences, under section "Avatars". Here wiki administrators can configure:
- the size of profile images displaying throughout the wiki in pixels,
- the generator used to make automatic avatars
- InstantAvatar - random, image contains initials of user's name
- Identicon - not random, represent a visual value of a user's IP address
Rights (permissions)
This extension does not require any special rights. A user must have "read" permission in order to change his profile image.
Requirements
Avatars requires BlueSpice Foundation.
Upload must be enabled on the wiki.
