The BuddyPress XProfile Custom Image Field (BPXPIF) plugin allows you to add fields of type Image to a BuddyPress user profile. Images uploaded during User Registration can be viewed on the Manage Signups screen to allow the Site Administrator to review them before activating a new user account. The BPXPIF plugin has a number of action hooks that allow theme and plugin developers to modify its behavior. This plugin requires BuddyPress minimum version 1.5 and has been tested up to BuddyPress version 14.5.2 ### Translations * English – default * Spanish translation by [Andrew Kurtis – WebHostingHub](http://www.webhostinghub.com/) ## Screenshots [⌊Signup page⌉⌊Signup page⌉[ Signup page [⌊Account activation page⌉⌊Account activation page⌉[ Account activation page [⌊Profile fields admin page⌉⌊Profile fields admin page⌉[ Profile fields admin page [⌊Image type profile field⌉⌊Image type profile field⌉[ Image type profile field ## Installation 1.
