    I would really like to put this in my blog but I'm getting this error:

    "The userphoto upload content directory does not exist and could not be created. Please ensure that you have write permissions for the '/userphoto' directory. Did you put slash at the beginning of the upload path in Misc. settings? It should be a path relative to the WordPress root directory. wp_upload_dir() returned:"

    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Yes, you will get this error if you activate the plugin but haven't altered permissions on the upload folder.

    In wp-admin under Settings -> Miscellaneous -> Store uploads in this folder, there is a path. You need to make this folder writeable by chmod, so that the system can save images to it.

    Worked great after doing that... hope that helps.

    Same problem here.

    Upload error: The userphoto upload content directory does not exist and could not be created. Please ensure that you have write permissions for the '/userphoto' directory. Did you put slash at the beginning of the upload path in Misc. settings? It should be a path relative to the WordPress root directory. wp_upload_dir() returned:

    - Uploads dir is CHMOD 777;
    - Manually created the "userphoto" folder and chmoded it 777;

    nothing works :(

    HELP.

    Thanks :)
