Specify Avatar on Registration

This plugin just lets users upload their custom avatar on registration.

In the vB Options, you can choose to disable the URL or upload field (if you only want one or the other). The options are under 'User Registration Options'.

To Install
Install the product, then look in the attached install.txt for the template mod. You need to modify one template (register).

Avatar Permissions
Permissions (max width/height, filesize, animated etc) are gathered from the regsitered user groups permissions (usergroupid 2). To change them, just do it through the usergroup manager.

Updates

May 14, 2006
- Plugin now works for those who are storing avatars in the filesystem. Thanks to chatbum for identifying the issue.

Note: If the user chooses an invalid image, the image won't be uploaded but the user won't see any error notices. This is due to the way vB handles registration and the way the uploads are handled, I coudn't find a way to insert error checking. Image errors are only checked on upload, which also binds the image to the user account at the same time. So I couldn't call it and check for errors before the user existed... If you find a way, let me know ;)

Looks brill-

*installs* :)

Thanks

Wow, VERY nice idea!!

will install tonight! :)

Its not showing up on the registration page. do i need to change the template?

Read his install.txt

Nice job Chroder. Going to install it now.

Derek

for me it looks like it does everything except upload the actual avatar :/

anyone have this working?

Good job Chroder! :D And thanks for sharing.

Thank you, been waiting for something like this. :)

Is there any way to do the same thing for profile picture? That would be awesome!

I agree. That would be very welcome.

Especially if it could have a preview before submitting

(and also given the option to have it as a compulsory field with proper error checking etc.)

Is this working for any of you?

For me it acts like the avatar was added but the image doesnt exist. (So it never uploaded it)

Does this hack depend on the regimagecheck?

(I placed the template edit above that if so it could bypass that)

chatbum, the plugin doesn't have anything to do with the regimagecheck.

What happens if you upload the same avatar via the same method using the Edit Avatar page? And what do you mean it "acts like the avatar was added"?

By saying it acts like the avatar was added, it displays a broken image (image that doesnt exist). So it seems a avatar link was added in the database but the file was never added in the avatar directory.

Oh and it works when i manually do it through the usercp

Yes you're right. There seems to be an error with storing avatars in the filesystem. I'll look into it now and see about an update :)

Okay, it seems to work now. Give it a try :D

Thanks man, working and being used on BeastToast.com :)

Very nice hack. Thank you!

hmm i can't seem to get this to work, i did follow those exact instructions. is their any way you can implement in the part where they can select a pre-uploaded avatar? this way, we make sure they have one, plus they can always change it later.

Does this work in 3.6.4? I'd love it.

Answering my own question; I just tried it and it does not work, at least not on 3.6.5.

Would love to see an update as I would very much appreciate this on my forum.

This looks like exactly what I need. However, it doesn't seem to work with 3.6.7 PL1. Does anyone know how to tweak it to work with the newer versions of the software?

this work with 3.7 beta 4?

This does not work correctly on vb 3.7 pl1. You can only specify a remote hosted avatar, but you cannot upload from your computer.

I have installed the product and added the following code to register template:

Code:

<if condition="$show[avatar_form]">

                        <fieldset class="fieldset">

                                <legend>$vbphrase[custom_avatar]</legend>



                                <div style="padding:$stylevar[formspacer]px">

                                <div class="fieldset">



                                <if condition="$vboptions[regava_show_url]">

                                $vbphrase[enter_url_to_image]



                                <div style="padding:$stylevar[formspacer]px">

                                        <input type="text" class="bginput" name="avatarurl" value="http://www." onchange="check_yes('avatar_yes')" size="45" dir="ltr" />

                                        <input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="$inimaxattach" />

                                </div>

                                </if>



                                <if condition="$vboptions[regava_show_upload]">$vbphrase[upload_image_from_computer]</if>

                                <div style="padding:$stylevar[formspacer]px">

                                        <input type="file" class="bginput" name="upload" onchange="check_yes('avatar_yes')" size="45" />

                                </div>



                                <if condition="$show['maxnote']">

                                        $maxnote

                                </if>



                        </fieldset>

</if>

Can anyone please help me get this fixed?

You may try adding this to the registration form in 3.7 for it to work:

ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data"

Unfortunately this did not help. The changed part looks like this now:

Code:

<form action="register.php?do=addmember" name="register" method="post" onsubmit="return verify_passwords(password, passwordconfirm);" ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data">

Any other ideas?

Did you install the latest version? For me it works on 3.7.1.

Yes, I have installed 3.7.3 pl1.

Have you changed anything in the product? Do you mind posting your registration template?

Since I was testing on a customized style, I just checked the problem on the default style. Although I have already applied some mods, the register template has been untouched.

I added the code I posted two weeks ago to the template and also tried the original from the install instructions. The template does not have the regimage conditional any more. It is called $human_verify now. I have added the code above that variable and also put the code you suggested to the form.

My modified default template with original mod code looks like this:

Code:

$stylevar[htmldoctype]

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" dir="$stylevar[textdirection]" lang="$stylevar[languagecode]">

$headinclude

I checked this with different jpg pictures. All with bigger dimensions than the maximum avatar setting, but smaller than the maximum file size.

I meant the latest product ;) It may have been updated recently.

I checked the plugins, and they make use of the same avatar upload system as used in vB 3.7.1.

You mean the product from this thread, don't you? I just downloaded it again and it is the same file as I have installed. Therefore I think I have the latest product.

When you look at this thread people seem to have problems since version 3.65. I think that it is only a minor problem which keeps the product from working correctly, but non-coders are not able to see it.

You don' t seem to have changed the plugin. Since the install instructions are not correct any more, I assume that the problem lies here. Could you please post the code you added to register template and where you have placed it?

1.

The registration form:

HTML Code:

<form action="register.php?do=addmember" name="register" method="post" onsubmit="return verify_passwords(password, passwordconfirm);" ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data">

The upload box:

HTML Code:

<if condition="$show[avatar_form]">

<fieldset class="fieldset">

    <legend>$vbphrase[regava_custom_avatar]</legend>

    <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="$stylevar[formspacer]" border="0">

    <tr>

        <td>

            $vbphrase[regava_upload_custom_avatar]

            <if condition="$vboptions[regava_show_url]">$vbphrase[regava_enterurl]</if>

            <if condition="$vboptions[regava_show_upload]">$vbphrase[regava_upload]</if>

        </td>

    </tr>

    <if condition="$vboptions[regava_show_url]">

        <tr>

            <td>

                $vbphrase[regava_enter_avatar_url]<br />

                <input type="text" class="bginput" name="avatarurl" value="http://www." size="50" dir="ltr" />

            </td>

        </tr>

    </if>

    <if condition="$vboptions[regava_show_upload]">

}

btw, i did work on the code and wanted to rewrite it, but then I noticed that the registration form did not have the right encoding so I believe I just reinstalled the original product and then it worked.

I also changed the register_addmember_process plugin a bit, but I believe those changes were in the end the same as it was.

Ok, it is working now! Thank you very much! It was really nice of you to spend so much time on this issue!

I think in the end you only have to add ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data". I am not sure about the effect of reinstalling the product. I think this is part of the solution, too, but I don' t know what kind of difference that makes and I also had an imagemagick problem.

This mod did not work for you on first install as well, did it?

After reading your last post I have reinstalled the plugin, but the avatar still has not been uploaded. I then replaced everything with your code. This was the first time I could see an impact. Instead of just promping a success without uploading the avatar, it said "invalid file". Soon I noticed that the standard avatar feature did not work, too. The reason was a misconfigured imagemagick path. After correction everything worked perfectly, besides that instead of the success message I received a blank box.

Therefore I reinstalled the original mod again. Now everything works perfect. Not quite, there are two more issues left.

1. I still don' t know why I get Could not find phrase 'note_maximum_size_x_y_or_z'. error. The phrase manager displays it as User Tools (global) and the phrase works perfect in the user control panel. It is also referenced in register.php ($phrasegroups = array('timezone', 'user', 'register', 'cprofilefield');).

You have not used the $maxnote variable in your html form code. Did you have the same problem or did you just think that it was not necessary? If I don' t get it to work, I will delete it from the form, too. Avatars are resized anyway, so that this information is a little bit misleading.

2. Then there is one more goal I like to achieve - making the avatar mandatory. I tried adding code to the check for missing fields section of register.php, but I was not able to submit the form. I added 'upload' => TYPE_FILE, to clean_array_gpc and OR empty($vbulletin->GPC['upload']) to the if clause.

I also thought about adding code to the javascript verify_passwords function. This would be not as good as php validation, but still better than no validation at all. Unfortunately I have never dealt with javascript and the variables used in vbulletin look so much different than the ones used in code examples on other sites.

If anyone knows how to change the files in order to make avatars mandatory, please reply.

Edit:
The reason for the first problem is that the language variable calls have been changed. The register_form_complete plugin should look like this:

Code:

//register_form_complete



if($avatar_form)

{

    $reg_perms['avatarmaxsize'] = vb_number_format($reg_perms['avatarmaxsize'], 1, true);

    

    $maxnote = '';

    

    

    if($reg_perms['avatarmaxsize'] AND ($reg_perms['avatarmaxwidth'] OR $reg_perms['avatarmaxheight']))

{

            $maxnote = construct_phrase($vbphrase['note_maximum_size_x_y_or_z'], $reg_perms['avatarmaxwidth'], $reg_perms['avatarmaxheight'], $reg_perms['avatarmaxsize']);

}

            

    else if ($reg_perms['avatarmaxsize'])

{

            $maxnote = construct_phrase($vbphrase['note_maximum_size_x'], $reg_perms['avatarmaxsize']);

}

    

    else if ($reg_perms['avatarmaxwidth'] OR $reg_perms['avatarmaxheight'])

{

            $maxnote = construct_phrase($vbphrase['note_maximum_size_x_y_pixels'], $reg_perms['avatarmaxwidth'], $reg_perms['avatarmaxheight']);

}

    

            

    $show['maxnote'] = (!empty($maxnote)) ? true : false;

}

does this work on the latest 3.8.x ?

can anyone help i cant get this to work on 384

will there be an update for vB4?
