Faster, better and easier!
Its difficult to get users to upload their avatars after registration because most dont understand what it means. too much use of facebook.
anyway, i want to know if their is a way that i can get users to upload their avatars before they conplete signup. i have already disabled email confirmation.
is their also a way to change all instances of avatar in buddypress to be Display Picture or Profile Picture/
thanks
thats a good point.
fyi - some themes incorporate avatar setup. im using bp social from wpmudev and after signup, it brings u to a page displaying the wavatar, but tells them if they want to upload their own pic now, do so (and gives them the upload button etc).
@Shane
That is the default behavior of buddypress theme. after signup they will show the avatar step. Since @gossyomega is using auto activate , that step is skipped.
As far as I remember, when 1.1 come out, avatar upload was moved to after signup process and It won't be possible to do as it happened earlier without writing custom registration codes.
I am not sure if someone has already done that or not, Once I settle down here in delhi(assume by Sunday), I will take a look at all the options available in this field and post what is possibility.
Ps: I have just moved my location and trying to settle down here in Delhi, so please do not mind my inactivity for last couple of days. everything will be normal by Sunday.
haha, Thanks Patrick :)
