Question:

I wan't to change the path to my superusers avatars in the database. The avatar is not 'found'. From the other users they show well.

superusers do not have website specific profiles, the image would needed to be stored in  a subfolder of /portals/_default/users and needs to be retrieved correctly - I fear there are still issues in this area. The easiest workaround would be using an admin account for your daily work and superuser only for tasks, where it is needed.

OK, So the user profile folder for the superuser is expected to be in /portals/_default/users. I expect that in an initial instal this is handled. So the problem is to migrate the profile from the website to the _default folder. Is that right?

YES, I checked my Back-ups and found the users directory.
