Question

I use the famous User Photo plugin for my WordPress site. I want to display the current logged in user’s avatar outside the loop. How is this possible?

The current code I use to display the author avatar inside the loop is:

<?php userphoto_the_author_thumbnail('', '', array(width => '40', height => '40')); ?>

Google did not give me much to go on. One person referred to this code:

global $authordata;
$authordata=get_userdata(get_query_var( 'author' ));
userphoto_the_author_thumbnail();

But it did not work. What is the solution?

Answer 1

Use userphoto_thumbnail() and pass the user ID explicitly.

Usage:

userphoto_thumbnail($user, $before = '', $after = '', $attributes = array(), $default_src = '')
