Thanks for the comments, I’d like my members to be able to upload an avatar via the profile edit option in my own BBPress forum. I don’t want them to see a WordPress profile, I’d like a simple upload section for the BBPress profile edit.
I think BBPress is an excellent plugin but I think it should provide a way members can upload avatars.
How do you upload avatars in this actual BBPress forum? Is there an option in profile edit?
Many thanks
Yeah I know, as I said it’s just a temp solution so I’ll still be looking for a full solution.
I’ll keep you posted.
I’ve found a plugin where you can do this, it works perfect. https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/user-avatar/
Just upload profile pics via users menu.
I wanted to allow the member to do it via my webpage rather than having access to wordpress. i.e. via profile edit in BBPress.
I have found a temp solution that works for me, however I’am using eMember plugin that is integrated with Gravatar. http://en.gravatar.com/
Just to add to my previous post, I have created my own theme for WordPress. The forum works on it fine, it would just be nice to have the option for members to upload their own profile pictures.
Maybe this is something the BBPress team can add on their next update as I’m sure many people would like this option?
Hi MTPrower, I’m going to carry on looking for a solution, hopefully someone can help on here, but I’ll keep you updated with my progress. Could you let me know if you find a solution as well?
Many thanks
