Notification Avatars

How do I make the avatar of the corresponding users show up on the notifications?

BP doesnt give you and easy way to do that. The notification table only has a userid for who the notification belongs to, not who triggered it. I’m not saying it isn’t possible, but it would take a lot of custom coding to get the avatar of who initiated the notification because you’d have to search for it in the appropriate table (blog post, mentions, messages.)

I’m trying this to no avail:

function bp_the_notification_avatar() {
echo bp_get_the_notification_avatar();
}

function bp_get_the_notification_avatar() {
$bp = buddypress();
$user_id = $bp->notifications->query_loop->notification->secondary_item_id;
echo bp_activity_avatar( array( ‘user_id’ => $user_id ) ); }

Ok so … I need to access the database?

Try asking on the bp forums.
