I have already reported (in e-mail) the bug about the captcha in version 1.8

Another small bug is the avatar size:
In previous version  (1.7) I had the size set to 80px.
After installing 1.8 I wanted to set it to 60px, but it does not apply the change.
I did try do disable it and then enable it again, but still with no success.

That does not bother me, but might be frustrating for some administrators ;)

I'm sorry, but so far I am unable to replicate either of these problems on either my local or public sites.

Anybody else seeing this behaviour please?

Somehow the problem with the captcha disapeared.
Magic ;)

It could be my wp-cache that is giving me the problem.
It does not work for forums, but tonight I had some strange behavior, changing one of my posts to "private". 

But the avatar size can not be changed in my forum.
I can give you admin rights to see it yourself, Andy, but I have already tried it more than five times.

What about other fields on the admin options? Do they 'stick'?

The rest of the admin page is working ok.

Opera browser is mooving the side bar under the forum in http://mnogo.truden.com.
I'll check whether this is theme problem.

I checked in the DB / wp-options and the value for the size (for avatars) is 60.

If the size is taken from there, I wonder why it still displays in 80px.

That's a good question and one I can't answer. The value is bought in with a simple get_option call. Is there any caching you are doing?

I exclude sf- from the caching.

I checked it with wp-cache off (after I delete the cache), and it is still not changing

No it wouldn't be wp-cache - that does not cover WP admin. I just wondered if you had any other form of caching active. I'm stumped to be honest. This piece of data is not treated any differently to any other in either the form preparation or the post form processing. I really don't know what to suggest.

No, I don't do any other caching.
But if I do, it will affect not only the avatar.

It is not a problem for me.
I'm just reporting something that looks like a bug in my forums ;)
Just trying to help :)

Thanks. But it would be much nicer to try and get to the bottom of it…

OK, it is theme (skin) problem, Andy, which appear with your new skin.
It does not affect the default theme.

Today I had time to look at the problem with "moonsbynight" skin.

In wp-content/plugins/simple-forum/skins/moonsbynight/moonsbynight.css:

#sforum .sfposttable .sfuserinfoside .sfavatar {
    height:90px;
    padding:5px 3px;
    width:90px;
}

It is wrong! (at least it desplays wrong avatar size)

I change it like in the default theme:

#sforum .sfposttable .sfuserinfoside .sfavatar {
    padding: 2px 8px 5px 8px;
}

Now the avatar size is write.

I didn't know the author of the skin had changed it.

But what you said at the top was that you were unable to change the size in the admin option panel which has nothing to do with the skin CSS.  If you had said it was the DISPLAY not the option panel itself I would have foudn that for you.

Anyway - glad you got it sorted.

Sorry, it is my English Laughing
I should say: After installing 1.8 I wanted to set it to 60px, but it does not apply the change in the theme.

I'm having the same problem. I set the avatar size to 80×80 a while ago, then I set back to 50×50 and it failed to do so. Now whenever someone uploads an avatar it will be 80×80 no matter what size I have it set on in the admin panel.

Are you using the "moonsbynight" skin? If you are the fix for that is above. I had not realised the author had pre-set the size in the CSS. If you are not using that skin can we confirm if you are meaning the admin options panel did not save the size or- it saved the size but this was not seen in the forum itself?

1.9 (due soon) supports Gravatars and also places the chosen width and height in the image tag so that it will display smaller even if the uploaded image (or downlloaded from Gravatar.com) is bigger. But if we have a problem I'd like to get it sorted.

Hello,

thanks for the fixing. It works fine.

Just for all who searching:

In the moonsbynight.css it is line 245 - 249 you have to change with upper code.
