Allows a user to associate a profile photo with their account. Uploaded images are resized to fit the dimensions specified on the options page; a thumbnail image correspondingly is also generated.

The resized photo replaces the built-in avatar. It's optional to display the Gravatar (or your configured avatar in the bbPress options) in case of a user without an uploaded photo.

This plugin is based on the original User Photo for WordPress by Weston Ruster. It has been ported and simplified by Eduardo Graells.

TODOs:

  • Make an options page.
  • Improve the upload form.

  1. Hey, I've been looking for something like this! One question...

    Does this work in concert with Gravatar? I already have Gravatar on my forum, and some users have Gravatars. I don't want to force them to upload a new photo if the Gravatar is already working for them. But I know some will never use Gravatar, and I'd like a way for them to upload their own photo.

  2. Oops, i forgot to edit the description of the plugin :p

    Mafhok: what you need it's not implemented, but you can do it by editing the bb_get_avatar function.

  3. yo Malfhok! not just u.. it's been years for this simple function to act solid in bbpress-wordpress or bbpress-wpmu!
    i just don't get it :(

    @Detective.. is it the same with wpmu? as it for wordpress?

  4. Sorry, i don't understand what you are asking. This plugin is a port of the WordPress' one, so it is compatible if you set the same paths in both plugins. In fact, i use it this way :)

    Malfhok, i just uploaded 1.1. Now you can configure the use of gravatars if the user hasn't uploaded a photo.

  7. Hey, Detective,

    I gave this a shot on my bbPress, and it doesn't seem to work with Safari. I've asked some of my non-Safari users to test it on their browsers, and I'll post their feedback here if it works.

  8. Thanks. I have never used Safari, so i don't know if it works :)

    It works, but i have placed ; enctype="multipart/form-data" in the form in profile-edit.php ...

    Great...

  10. Help!! I have installed the plugin just as the instructions say. I added the code to the profile_edit.php file and the upload box and link show up on my profile edit pages. I even set the url's in the user-photo-for-bbpress.php file but it's still not working. I am a newby at PHP. Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong here? It allows me to hit browse, select the file and then when I hit update profile it does not upload the file. I made sure to set my folder it's supposed to upload to as 777. HELP!!!

    @typvsns, Here's what you can do to fix the problem: Open profile_edit.php and add:id="your-profile" to the form tag that hosts your file upload HTML element.

    This is because enctype="multipart/form-data" is added to the form via some javascript from the User Photo plugin. And this will not get added the way the form tag in profile_edit.php currently is, because the script looks for a form element with id="your-profile". You will need the enctype="multipart/form-data" added to form tag to successfully upload files.

  13. I'm having issues with uploads too. The option to upload an avatar shows fine, however it doesn't upload anything and just keeps the avatar blank.

    NandanNaik, could you please explain your solution a bit more?
