Check the other solutions on the wp forum... something like:
http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-user-photo-front-end-upload?replies=17#post-2226189

The solution I posted worked and I don't know what to tell you... Maybe you can put a pop-up link instead of using thickbox/prettyphoto/any other overlay plugin.

@ratsoid2 Hey thanks it worked.
But when I click Modify your avatar. I get sent to a page. The thickbox doesn't appear.

o i think this one might help (regarding to the topic i started earlier: "Changing Avatars"). Will try this one first and get back to my thread to update if this works.

best,

I'm having the problem "click 'Avatar' in profile, go back to home page" problem as well.

I've narrowed it down to the bb_auth call in the avatar-upload.php file line 7. The cookies - at least for me, an admin - seem wrong. I'm going to clear my cookies and try it again. I'm also going to test with a different user - not an admin and see how that goes.

I am taken back to the main forum page as well, when I use this plugin. The template/default image, works etc., but I cannot set an image for the avatar.

I'm just setting up BBPress, as a first ever bulletin board and am beginning to think that this software is waaaayyy to complex/geeky. No Avatars on a web-forum software???

Could you provide us with some more details please?

Like what version of bbPress you're using?
Are you using BuddyPress?
Are you integrated with WordPress? and if so what version?

Hi people,

I followed the instructions on how to upload the Avatar Upload plug-in. When I go to my forums, make a new account and then try editing my avatar, it takes me to the home page of the forums. How can I fix this?

i have tried to follow this http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/plugin-avatar-upload/page/5
but it doesn't work, and it takes me on a blank page with line 8 error.

its 0.8.3 version of Avatar upload plugin.

Please help me!

imcoach on "Here's how to install Avatar Upload plugin"

imcoach — Sat, 20 Mar 2010 04:35:12 +0000

Yeah, I've just spent the last 2 hours trying to figure this out... At first I thought I was just reading the instructions wrong. I've been trying to read into it and plop code randomly. I've gone over the instructions as to which file to put where about 5 times........

...I'll let you know if I figure it out, lol.. if I don't give up shortly and go back to phpbb. ;)

mattev on "bbSync"

mattev — Sat, 27 Feb 2010 02:46:47 +0000

So it looks like bbSync is dead, and bbPressLive is dead.

Is anyone working on a repair or replacement, by any chance?

MSR6 on "avatar upload: where to put code for avatar in sidebar on profile page?"

MSR6 — Tue, 08 Dec 2009 17:30:17 +0000

I am using avatar upload. It is working fine, but I have a couple questions. I have the avatar working on posts, but cannot find the correct file or location to for the avatar on the profile page.
My site is: http://www.msrplastics.com/bbpress
I am using the iNove theme/template, which has the avatar image in the right sidebar on the profile page. Help, I'm driving myself crazy looking through random php folders for any sign of an avatar reference!
Also, the avatar I chose for myself has an oblong shape and did not get resized correctly. Any fix or is it necessary to upload more "square" shaped pictures. Look at only post for reference.
And when I put the code in the bb-post.php, I replaced the call for an avatar code that was already there. Is this right or should I have just added it before or after?

Thanks for any help,
Mike

mrsparex — Sun, 29 Nov 2009 04:51:40 +0000

Chris, Thank you....I figured out hoe to open it with Vista....pluginworks.....Thanks!

chrishajer on "downloading a plugin file on Vista"

chrishajer — Sun, 29 Nov 2009 03:41:53 +0000

You should really figure out how to unzip files on your Vista machine. An unzip utility was included with Windows XP and I suspect one is included with Vista. You're going to need it.

Anyway, you can download all the files here:

http://chrishajer.com/bbpress/avatar-upload/

The php files were all renamed php.txt so you can display them in your browser and save them, then upload them. You will need to keep the same directory structure. There is also a readme.txt file that is included that I did not rename.

Also, you'll note on the plugin page that this says compatible up to 0.8.2.1 which is very very old. I have no idea if that works at all with whatever version you're installing.

When you're done, you should have something like this:

http://www.example.com/bbpress/my-plugins/avatar-upload/bb-avatar-upload.php
http://www.example.com/bbpress/my-plugins/avatar-upload/identicon.php
http://www.example.com/bbpress/my-plugins/avatar-upload/readme.txt

Post the link to the plugin you want to download and someone can download and unzip it and post it so you can save it as plain text.

mrsparex on "downloading a plugin file on Vista"

mrsparex — Sat, 28 Nov 2009 17:01:46 +0000

It's the Avatars file that I tried...I believe your right about not having the right software to decompress the file. I know Vista can unzip files but I haven't figured out how so I'm going to filehippo.com and download a zip file program. I'm going to wait a day or so and see what else gets added to this topic first. The Avatar plugin does in end .zip

Also I'll try the right click and save. Thanks for your reply and "pre thanks" for any more replies!

I'm also wanting to add a stock market theme when I find one and the TOU plugin...after I get the feel for bbpress I hope to make a good bulletin board forum for penny stock traders...Thanks !

(thanks for not laughing in front of me)

chrishajer on "downloading a plugin file on Vista"

chrishajer — Sat, 28 Nov 2009 15:04:57 +0000

Which plugin are you talking about? It's possible you don't have the software installed to decompress the file. What is the extension?

If you want to download it, instead of clicking the link to the download, just right click and select "Save As" or something similar (I don't have Vista.) Then it will be saved.

mrsparex on "downloading a plugin file on Vista"

mrsparex — Sat, 28 Nov 2009 09:00:13 +0000

Fortunately I'll not be able to hear people laughing at me but I just bought hosting from Siteground (great service by the way) and they uploaded bbpress for me. I believe I found how/where to upload in the "my plugin" file. It asks where to download from... well....when I try to save the plugin download onto my computer it defaults to save it with notepad (offers internet explorer too). When I save it with notepad and then view the file it looks like wingdings on bad drugs. I know this is a silly question for most here...but how do I save a plugin download with Vista? (go ahead and laugh my speakers are off) LOL ...I must to learn more basics before I can do this it appears. oh yeah....my site is pennyforums.com Thanks!
