Avatar Path Issue

[ComputerCarl]

I have a Ghost blog and NodeBB forum proxied through Apache at https://bliss.asia and https://bliss.asia/forum respectively.

When I am not logged into NodeBB, the default Gravatar is displayed beside the new comment textarea. When I am logged into NodeBB, no avatar is displayed due to the 404 which occurs from some piece of the Ghost=commentPLugin=NodeBB puzzle adding a second /forum path to the URL.

Hi Carl,

I just had a look through your forum and I think I know what the issue is. Can you replace comments.tpl in node_modules/nodebb-plugin-blog-comments/public/templates/comments.tpl with the following and then re-build and restart NodeBB?

<!-- IF tid -->
    <!-- IF atTop -->
        <div class="topic-profile-pic user">
            <!-- IF isLoggedIn -->
                <!-- IF user.picture -->
                <img src="{user.picture}" alt="{user.username}" class="profile-image" title="{user.username}">
                <!-- ELSE -->
                <div class="profile-image" style="background-color: {user.icon:bgColor}" title="{user.username}" alt="{user.username}">{user.icon:text}</div>
                <!-- ENDIF user.picture -->
            <!-- ELSE -->

I'm just heading out but I thought I'd give you a bit of a head start. My plan is to update this plugin to the latest version of NodeBB (and ghost/wordpress) and fix a couple of issues including this one over the next week.

Thank you for taking a look at this so quickly. However, there is still a 404 from the /forum/forum issue, and a new issue has arisen wherein a Gravatar image is not displayed when there is no user logged into NodeBB.
