Tested up to: 2.6.2
Stable tag: trunk
Allows a user to associate a photo with their account and for this photo to be displayed in their posts and comments.
== Description ==
*This plugin is developed at [Shepherd Interactive](http://www.shepherd-interactive.com/ "Shepherd Interactive specializes in web design and development in Portland, Oregon") for the benefit of the community.*
Allows a user to associate a profile photo with their account through their "Your Profile" page. Admins may
add a user profile photo by accessing the "Edit User" page. Uploaded images are resized to fit the dimensions specified
on the options page; a thumbnail image correspondingly is also generated.
User photos may be displayed within a post or a comment to
help identify the author. New template tags introduced are:
* userphoto_the_author_photo()
* userphoto_the_author_thumbnail()
* userphoto_comment_author_photo()
* userphoto_comment_author_thumbnail()
*Important: all of these "template tags" must appear inside of PHP script blocks (see examples below).*
The first two should be placed in the posts loop near the_author(), and the second two in the comments
loop near comment_author() (or their respective equivalents). Furthermore, userphoto_the_author_photo()
and userphoto_the_author_thumbnail() may be called anywhere (i.e. sidebar) if $authordata is set.
The output of these template tags may be modified by passing four parameters: $before, $after,
$attributes, and $default_src, as in: userphoto_the_author_photo($before, $after, $attributes, $default_src).
If the user photo exists (or $default_src is supplied), then the text provided in the $before and $after parameters is respectively
prefixed and suffixed to the generated img tag (a common pattern in WordPress). If attributes are provided in the $attributes
parameter, then they are returned as attributes of the generated img element. For example: userphoto_the_author_photo('', '', array(style => 'border:0'))
Just added in 0.8.1 release are these two new template tags:
* userphoto($user, $before = '', $after = '', $attributes = array(), $default_src = '')
* userphoto_thumbnail($user, $before = '', $after = '', $attributes = array(), $default_src = '')
By using these, it is uneccessary to set the global $authordata to display a photo. Just pass $authordata, $curauth or
whatever variable you have which contains the user object, or (as of version 0.9), pass in a user ID or a user login name.
Here's an example that shows a few ways of inserting a user's photo into the post loop:
//this will display the user's avatar if they don't have a user photo,
userphoto() or userphoto_thumbnail() like this:
post_author); ?>
If you want to display a user's photo their author page, you may do this:
get_queried_object()) ?>
In version 0.9 the boolean function `userphoto_exists($user)` has been introduced which returns true if the user has a photo and false if they do not.
Argument `$user` may be user object, ID, or login name. This function can be used along with avatars:
ID, 96);
?>
Or if the new "Serve Avatar as Fallback" option is turned on, then the avatar will be served by any of the regular calls to display the user photo:
Additionally, all of the regular function calls to display the user photo may be done away with alltogether if the new "Override Avatar with User Photo"
option is enabled:
user_email);
?>
Both options "Serve Avatar as Fallback" and "Override Avatar with User Photo" require that the 'Avatar Display' setting under Discussion be set to "Show".
Uploaded images may be moderated by administrators via the "Edit User" page.
Localizations included for Spanish, German, Dutch, Polish, Russian, and French.
