For the life of me I cannot find anything even in the source.
Well now Iām pretty much sure that my trick wonāt work hahaha
Iāll look into it again once I have a bit more free time (probably after my examsā¦)
Well. Possible it is.
How did you do it? Iām sure thereās something incredibly obvious that Iām missing, but Iām editing js right now to try to make it work. Iām pretty sure itās the wrong approach, but itās the only way I can see.
This secrecyā¦ so unfair Donāt want to waste an hour searchingā¦ If it was correctly enabled in the administration page, it would be really easy to use a custom avatar.
wtfā¦ Iāve already searched everything but it doesnāt matter, there are more important things xD
If it makes you feel any better, there really isnāt. After @Pac found his method he sent me a PM and we exchanged a bit of info. And while we basically ended up using the same method, we got there in a bit of a different way. We both agreed though that we wouldnāt call this an easter egg. To the point where Iām not even sure @jocelyn was referring to this method. Soā¦ you might be missing something obvious, but in that case, so did @Pac and I.
Of course itās fair! Currently everyone who managed to do it put in the same work.
But if itās not worth an hour to you, I suggest you donāt bother. Itāll likely take you a bit of time to find this.
Youāre right, @jocelyn can just activate it in the settings and make your efforts fade away
If our Storjling overlords decide thatās the right approach, Iām fine with that. In fact I advocated for that a few posts back already.
yeah hopefully
I spent 30 minutes searching, now I found a method I thought should work (at least according to config options on my local discourse installation) but looks like it doesnāt workā¦ oh well. enough time spent on it for now.
oh wow, i stepped away and came back to this! OK everyone, Im not trying to protect Fort Knox or anyhting I just thought when I set up the forum that a little easter egg would be fun. It would be a cute surprise, but also a way for longtime users to bond. over a little mini-hack
Ive flipped the switch in admin settings, enjoy Its subject to the code of conduct, so keep it wholesome (no spoofing the company logo please!) Looking forward to seeing your smiling faces
nice

great minds think alike ā stay tuned for updates
Thank you for making it simple for us, I did try to look for it but I didnāt have alot of time
But we wanted to hear about the easter egg, not have a profile picture, the picture is much less important!
Iām looking forward for all the crazy profile pics
Did you use Gravatar @BrightSilence ?
I just searched avatar in the page source, even though I didnāt understand the code I figured that if gravatar was mentioned in there it must mean that they configured it.
EDIT: I do have say that itās a bit less fun now that itās enabled for everyone hahahahaha
Awesome. Though I wonder what the hack was. My idea was that maybe the site has a security bug that would allow me to ignore the admin settings.
Well it was quite fun to give it a whirl.
Nope, just circumvented the block on the custom avatar feature.
Kind of feel like thatās a bug in discourse that thatās even possible.
This exactly.
Great! Many thanks
