Hey smemon,

This is not possible with this plugin, since it works in coordination with User Avatar (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/user-avatar/) that is simply for providing the image to be used as a code in the template info area as you know.

However, for your requirement, try using the get_avatar function because we are replacing that avatar with the uploaded user avatar. From there, just get the current user’s ID, get their respective avatar using the function and throw it where you need it. Sorry I can’t be more specific, but this should give you some insight on how to go about doing things.

Hope this helps,

Gagan.

Hey btotanes,

This could be a permission error, but may be caused by a typo in the current version. I will release an update on Thursday, so please reply here afterward if you are facing the same issue & setting the folders/files uploaded to 777 permission does not work.

Please see: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-user-avatar (first 8 or so posts) to see similar issues other users have faced and try to fix them. Also, http://wordpress.org/tags/user-avatar will show you all of the issues and suggestions raised, just for you to see if you can find some info there.

Thanks for your feedback and hope this helps,

Gagan.

Hi cCat5564,

Please see, http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-user-avatar.

I will release a fix on Thursday.

Thanks for your feedback,

Gagan.

I have re-worked the codes and have provided every possible default code for you guys to use as you desire. I hope you guys like the update and please rate/state whether it works or is broken on the plugin page!

Much appreciated and thanks for your feedback,

Gagan.

Sorry users, I must not have changed that in the copy I threw up on the SVN for some odd reason. Regardless, I’ll update the plugin on Thursday and push changes then for you guys to get the new updates (and to fix the issue).

Another user (ambro23) said to do the following:
Change line 486 in user-avatar.php from:
$avatar_folder_dir = USER_AVATAR_UPLOAD_PATH."{$user}/";
to
$avatar_folder_dir = USER_AVATAR_UPLOAD_PATH."{$id}/";

Try this fix, which 99.9999% the reason for the error because I know I was tampering with that while trying to get the remove button working… Doh!

Sorry for any inconvenience and I will release an update Thursday,

Gagan.

Hey infected & november20 & other users with this issue,

I finally gave in! I have added functionality for the uploaded avatar to be removed and defaulted to Gravatar! Next, I took in another suggestion and have decided to allow users to go to the Discussions Page (Settings >> Discussions) and select the default avatar of their choice in case they don’t have a Gravatar associated with their email! I will release this later today.

Cheers & thanks for your feedback,
Gagan.

Hi a.luiz.n,

Your issue is a bit different than the previous posters, but similar in a sense. The code behind your error is:

if( !file_exists($_POST['attachment_file']) ) {
		echo "<div class='error'><p>Sorry, No file available</p></div>";

and..

<input type="hidden" name="attachment_file" id="attachment_file" value="<?php echo esc_url($file); ?>" />

For some reason, your file from your disk is not getting read and therefore this error is spit out later in the code because it didn’t POST the image URL on your disk earlier. More than likely, this is a permission error, similar to the previous posters and I would suggest that you set the folder where your image is stored to 777 making them accessible for the plugin to use.

Hope this helps!

Also, TO ALL POSTERS HERE, I will be releasing a new updated version of user-avatar…possibly today! I have gotten lots of feedback and hope that you guys like the new functionality!

Cheers,
Gagan.
