About this plugin

User Profile Picture is no longer under active development, but will continue to work as is. We have integrated the current functionality in Profile Builder where it will actively be maintained, and we recommend migrating to it.

Set or remove a custom profile image for a user using the standard WordPress media upload tool.

View Documentation and Examples

Users must have the ability to upload images (typically author role or greater). You can use the plugin Profile Builder to allow other roles (e.g. subscribers) the ability to upload images.

A template tag is supplied for outputting to a theme and the option to override a user’s default avatar is also available.

Questions

How do you set a user profile image?

  1. Visit the profile page you would like to edit.
  2. Click on the profile picture to add, edit, or remove the profile picture.

What role does a user have to be to set a profile image?

Author or greater.

How do I create specific thumbnail sizes?

As of 1.5, three image sizes are created: profile_24, profile_48, and profile_96. You are not limited to these sizes, however.

Does the plugin work with Multisite?

Yes, but you’ll have to set a new profile image per site. This is currently a limitation of the way the plugin stores its data. Ideas to overcome this are welcome.
